Join me as I take a deep dive into the uSDX+, an affordable 8-band QRP HF transceiver packed with features! This all-mode, software-defined radio (SDR) is an excellent entry-level HF rig, offering a built-in CW decoder, an Arduino-based design, and impressive performance for its $120 price point.
🔥 Key Features Covered in This Review:
✅ Covers 80, 60, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, and 10 meters
✅ 5W output (with some quirks on 15m & 10m)
✅ Arduino & Si5351-based frequency control
✅ Kenwood-style mic connector
✅ Compact and lightweight – perfect for portable ops
✅ Works with 12V or 13.8V power sources
✅ Side-by-side power output comparisons
I also test CW and SSB QSOs, record the receive audio, and share my thoughts on how this compares to classic rigs like the Heathkit HW-8. If you’re into QRP, portable HF, or budget SDR radios, this might be the perfect addition to your shack!

In this video, I take a hands-on look at the TinySA Ultra+ ZS704 spectrum analyzer from SeeSii — a compact, powerful RF tool with frequency coverage up to 7.3 GHz. We compare it with previous TinySA models, test real-world RFI at an RV park, and explore how well it integrates with field-ready cases and accessories.
This isn’t just a spec rundown — I take the ZS704 out for a spin, track down sources of noise, and evaluate how quiet (or not) a full-time RV setup really is. I also show off the accessories, cases, attenuators, and setup tips that make this analyzer a must-have for RF hobbyists and ham radio operators.
🧰 In This Video:
• What’s new in the TinySA Ultra+ ZS704 vs other TinySA models
• Field tests: RFI hunting in an RV park using spectrum scans and waterfall display
• Attenuator setup for safe signal testing (including 40 dB + 20 dB stack)
• Case and accessory walkthrough: mesh bags, 3D printed organizers, DC blocks, and more
• Measuring RF noise from charge controllers, LED lights, trucks, and RV electronics
• TinySA as a signal generator and sensitivity test tool
• Advice on avoiding clones and where to buy safe, legit units
