Officially unveiled at Tokyo Ham Fair 2026, the IC-7110 delivers up to 100 watts on HF and 50 MHz and 50 watts on 144/430 MHz, with a detachable 4.3-inch touchscreen controller, dual-band simultaneous reception, D-STAR, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3, GNSS, USB-C and a built-in CW decoder.

In this video, we take a first look at the newly revealed Icom IC-7110, what changed from the IC-7100, what Icom got right, and what we still don’t know. Pricing and release dates have not yet been officially announced, but Icom says the production version is now public and manufacturing preparations are underway.

Swapping the FlashForge Creator 5 from 0.4 mm nozzles to 0.25 mm nozzles made a much bigger difference than I expected. In this video I replace all four nozzles, reload the filament, and compare real 3D prints so you can see what changes when moving to a smaller nozzle. If you’re wondering whether a 0.25 mm nozzle is worth it for fine detail, small text, logos, badges, or multicolor 3D printing, this comparison shows the practical difference instead of just talking about layer lines and theory.

The Creator 5 is already built for detailed multi-tool printing, but the smaller nozzle really shines on tiny features and lettering that can get lost with a standard 0.4 mm nozzle. I’ll show the results, talk through the tradeoffs, and help answer the bigger question: should you switch from a 0.4 mm nozzle to a 0.25 mm nozzle for detailed 3D prints? The answer, at least for these prints, was good enough to earn the toughest certification in the shop: wife approved.

What signals are hiding around you? In this video, I test the SeeSii ZA-048 log-periodic dipole array antenna, a compact directional LPDA designed for wideband RF reception from 400 MHz to 8 GHz. I connect it to a spectrum analyzer, scan the nearby RF environment, and demonstrate how rotating a directional antenna can help identify where stronger signals are coming from.

👉 Log Periodic Dipole Array Antenna: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/jo14jf
👉 TinySA Ultra ZS-407: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/x74s4q
👉 TinySA Case: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/snupgw

The ZA-048 is intended for spectrum scanning, interference hunting, basic radio direction finding, and locating nearby RF sources such as wireless devices, transmitters, access points, and other electronic equipment. Its nominal impedance is 50 ohms, and the kit includes the printed LPDA antenna, a lightweight tripod, and an adjustable holder compatible with several TinySA models. In addition to a quick overview, I discuss realistic applications, limitations, and what you can actually learn by exploring the near field with an inexpensive directional antenna.

This Retevis RT95 was an Amazon return that I tested for resale, and during the QA process I found that it had already been unlocked. In this video, I go through the radio and also show how to unlock the RT95 from the radio’s hidden test mode.

👉 Baofeng Mini: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/n1pl76

The Retevis RT95 is also sold under similar names like the Ailunce HS4 and Anytone AT-778UV, so this unlock process may apply to those radios as well. This is RT95 return evaluation number 22 in my ongoing series of checking returned radios to see whether they are actually broken, need repair, or are ready to go back on the air.

If you are trying to unlock a Retevis RT95, change the frequency mode, test a used RT95, or understand what to check before buying a returned ham radio, this video walks through the process on the bench.
