The First G7250 Firmware Is Here, So I Hacked It!

The First G7250 Firmware Is Here, So I Hacked It!

The Xiegu G7250 firmware is here—but what can we actually verify? I’m working with a prototype, and the firmware isn’t publicly available. The changelog doesn’t identify any changes, and the production radio may use a different installation process. So this isn’t a firmware review or an installation tutorial.

👉 Get your Xiegu G7250 with $15 off at Radioddidty: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/4s9z39
Use Code "TO15"

🚀 Buying Starlink? Get $100 CASH! Use my referral link and we BOTH get $100, paid directly to our bank accounts (or applied as service credit). Terms apply: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/5gbxnk

📻 G90 Firmware Hacking Repo: https://github.com/OpenHamradioFirmware/G90Tools
📻 991a Custom Firmware: https://wg5eek.com/lab/

Instead, I open up the G7250 firmware package and show how its encryption works. The process uses the same key as the Xiegu G90, and I walk through what that lets us see—and what it still doesn’t tell us about the update. If you’re searching for Xiegu G7250 firmware news, a G7250 firmware update, or how the G90 encryption key relates to the G7250, this video shows what I could confirm from the prototype files.

I Bought Two Used Yaesu Radios... What Could Go Wrong?

I bought two used Yaesu FT-8900 quad-band ham radios for my mobile installation, but are they actually any good?

Build Your Own Radio Without Spending Big — Charlie ZL2CTM

Build Your Own Radio Without Spending Big — Charlie ZL2CTM

Charlie Morris ZL2CTM is a New Zealand homebrewer and retired Air Force avionics technician who builds radios and electronics projects one module at a time on stripboard over a copper ground plane, housed in plastic food containers from the supermarket. His message is clear: you don’t need expensive PCBs, exotic components, or fancy enclosures to build something that works and gets you on the air.

In this episode we talk through his modular construction approach, why understanding the circuit before you build it makes troubleshooting almost trivial, crystal filter design using cheap AliExpress crystals, what test equipment you actually need to get started, and his thoughts on using AI as a learning tool rather than a shortcut.

Join us as we explore how you can get involved in portable radio, QRP, and more in this episode of the All Portable Discussion Zone (AP/DZ). Every aspect of portable operations is covered in this biweekly podcast, from news and gear to achievements, the workbench, contests, awards, and beyond.
