Roll-up J-Pole for Hiking (#454)

Roll-up J-Pole for Hiking (#454)

Jack Arnold, KD4UEE, and his son are extras and go camping and hiking often, and they love to bring a dual band HTs to talk on during these trips but I doesn’t always work the best. They ask what Dave’s suggestion is on small, light, effective antennas for this situation?

Xiegu X6100 Rumors – 705 Killer? Runs Linux? First Looks w/TO

Xiegu X6100 Rumors - 705 Killer? Runs Linux? First Looks w/TO

This looks like a pretty amazing rig. I’m very very interested in what this radio will eventually turn out to be. Linux in a Shack in a box? USB-C? Portable Digital Modes… Just leave it running while driving around town with some Ham Sticks?

Where will it line up with the 5105, the G90, the IC-705, whatever Yaesu and Others come up with?

Edge of your seat type stuff?
