Unboxing to On-Air in One Shot: Xiegu G7250

The Xiegu G7250 is finally here. In this first-look video, I unbox the new Xiegu G7250, walk through the controls, menus, display, operating modes, and overall first impressions before putting it on the air. This is not a full review yet, just a hands-on look at what comes in the box and what the radio is actually like to use.

After getting familiar with the G7250, I connect it to the antenna and see what it can do on HF under less-than-ideal band conditions. Despite a rough day on the bands, the radio manages a solid first contact, giving us an early look at its receive audio, transmit performance, tuning behavior, and real-world usability.

There is plenty more to test on the Xiegu G7250, including output power, receiver performance, digital modes, CW, filtering, firmware, heat, spectral purity, and long-term reliability. If there is something specific you want to see tested, leave it in the comments and I’ll add it to the list for the full review. #Xiegu #G7250 #HamRadio

Welcome To The Jungle…Antenna Super Cheap Easy DIY 2 Meter Antenna

I’ve been fascinated by the Jungle Antenna for a few years now. I don’t know where I first heard of it but I saw a vendor at Hamcation last year, maybe the year before, selling these and I thought it was so cool. Just too cheap to pay for one (am I right?). Especially when you can make one for a few dollars and maybe 5 minutes of your time. Quite possibly the easiest antenna I’ve ever made. So here it is. The 2 Meter Jungle Antenna. Hope you enjoy!

Ham Radio Commander – Electronic Glass Cockpit – The Full Reveal!

Ham Radio Commander - Electronic Glass Cockpit - The Full Reveal!

Meet Radio Commander — the glass-cockpit control panel I’ve been building for amateur radio stations.

The idea is simple: one clean, unified operating surface for controlling different radios without having to relearn the front panel every time. In this short demonstration, I’ll show you Radio Commander working with my Kenwood equipment, including its dual-receiver and dual-radio features.

It currently supports the Kenwood TS-990S, TS-890S and TS-590S/SG through external radio drivers, with more HF radios planned from Icom, Elecraft and Yaesu.

This is still an evolving community project, but it’s already becoming a genuinely useful part of my station.

Let me know what you think — and which HF radio you’d most like to see supported.

Download here – and select RADIO COMMANDER directory: https://mega.nz/folder/hq4mGY7Z#fSPzKPMhLIGmTnxUewZl1w
