Do I still like the IC-705 after TWO MONTHS?
Thanks for the QSO Morten! Looks like a good cheap option for HF. 73!
Feel better soon my friend and nice video.
Dang! Feel better soon!
I have this set and few others. Great little portable antennas
Hi Morton, I have one of these, and I have not tuned a wire for it yet, but it tested good with 2450 ohm resistance after building. I plan to put a right angle bnc solder connection on mine to make it "smaller". The rope connection is also a place to connect a counterpoise if you decide you want to try one. 73, KD9OCL
great video !!! .... do you know of anyone using the Digrig on the (tr)uSDX .... I would love to do POTA on FT8 on it !! .... N2JNZ :)
Hi all so tried to use the board without GPS ... I can install and I got the IP and I can change parameters but after I save the config, I lose the AP somehow... bad for me ... If I like to connect APRS Droid but I can not connect the app to this device (bluethoth is connected in Android) ... mhmm I'm not yet happy some how :=) I will try again but mabe someone has an idea my call sing HB9GBE
I hope we continue to see more HTs with KISS TNC and APRS.
"It simply just works." You're welcome 😀. Also note that RadioMail will do frequency control on the radio so you don't have to touch the radio at all.
An ATNO with Colin--what an awesome activation!
It is not available for Italy. I am wondering if this limitation is going to apply all over Europe.
I just answered you over on the Facebook group. You will not get a different answer here. I had no issues ordering this radio to Norway, and I know of hams that has ordered this radio to a bunch of different European countries. As with not shipping to Italy, that is probably an issue with the seller you are looking at. Not everyone ships everywhere. And as I also said over on Facebook, I believe Wimo has it in stock, and that is thorough and German.
@@LB0FI - thanks for your suggestion. WIMO has it in stock, also on /it brach website.

Hi , what kind of sotware are you using on the phone? Regards LA5TSA
I am using Radiomail. It's in the App Store.
Fantastic to work you in Scotland and really nice video 73 Carl 2E0HPI
Great to get you in my log Carl!
Would love to see it in action in analogue mode
I hate to disapoint you, but it's like any other radio. That's why making content on HTs is so darn hard.
@LB0FI nfw 😘
Good choice of an item to review
Thanks!
Good afternoon. Can this be done without a radio ID? Thank you.
You need a radio ID in order for the hotspot/repeater to recognize your transmission and connect to the network.
For all intents and purposes, yes, you need a radio ID.
how do you put the gps values on the map
@@umairiqbal7646 You enter your position in the setup, and then it’s uploaded to APRS.fi
Are you Not getting the message that the iPhone does Not Support the accessory ?
No
@ Which iPhone do you use ?
@@marcoplaystation2377 I probably used an iPhone 11 at that time.
I recently picked up the Icom IC-706MKII in an estate sale. I had planned on selling it. But I'm having fun with it instead, mostly on FT8. I'm using a West Mountain Radio RigBlaster Advantage with a built-in sound card. It uses the mic connector as opposed to the 13 pin DIN connector. Which method does your interface use? 73 Paul AA1SU
Both the Digirig and the other interface use the DIN-connector. I have not tried the RigBlaster.
Light meter is out. need to fix that.
Indeed. It has since been fixed.
Good job Mort and glad you met up with Colin.
It was great meeting up Colin, and Scotland in general has been amazing. I guess I have to go to southern England the next time.
Looks like you had a blast and have a very understanding wife to let you get romantic with your radio... 😜
It’s really nice of her, but she know me
great to catch you , enjoy your stay!! VE1SK
Great to get you in the log from Scotland.
If you're doing amateur radio, it's only a romantic getaway when the wife is also licensed and joins you. LOL! Otherwise, she let you do your own thing for a little bit... Hope you had a great time. 73!
Oh we did other things than ham radio as well, but it’s nice to squeeze in some radio while the XYL is shopping.
Good to see in the start there that you bought both the kilt and the bagpipes, congrats! 🙂You just went QRT on cw as I was calling P2P from Slottsparken 🙂
A kilt and a bagpipe is something that always stays in my go bag!
Nice! A little late to get you on SSB. Thanks for QSO Colin!
I am just happy you got Colin in the log.
Thank you 😊. Only 5w from the 705.
@ no problem good signal on QRP
Hope you're enjoying your time in Scotland. Thanks for the P2P from that activation today. Awesome you were able to meet up with Colin, and get a POTA ATNO in another country. Amazed no one has activated that park right in the middle of Edinburgh before! Have a great trip. 73
Colin and I discussed the same thing. This is a very accessible park, especially since the park is all of the city center and not only Calton Hill. It was really great!
Absolutely fantastic , looks a nice antenna and it was a pleasure to work you today from Scotland Edinburgh :)
@@2e0hpi Thanks for the QSO Carl. There will be a video coming soon.
@@LB0FI That's brilliant , I did the SOTA before at Author's Seat which you see by Edinburgh and my son was in the city today
Your very welcome Morten. More importantly, what did you have to eat ? 😂
@@MM0OPXFieldRadio We ended up at a pub on Rose Street. I had a GIANT burger and the XYL had a fish pie. Now it’s time for some food on Grassmarket and some retro gaming (my other hobby) and drinks at NQ64. Thanks for a great time!
LODA?
@@GOLDEN-z7x LoRa.
Nothing more romantic than a new antenna.
Have you had problems with the map feature. Seems I can't get it working.
I haven't used Hamrs in about a year now, so I couldn't answer you on that. It did have a lot of issues towards the end when I used it though.
Why is my mic Cable getting extremely hot while ptt or tune? Is it HF going back?
I have no way of troubleshooting that for you.
@ thanks, it was not the temperature but the current when I was touching bare wire
Happy New Year my friend 🎉🎉
You too!!
I bought an AT-100M (not the "Pro" model) in May, 2024. After tuning it produces about 2 S-units (12 dB) of receive noise on 10 & 12 meters and about 1 S-unit on 15, 17 and 20m. An automatic ATU that degrades receiver signal-to-noise ratio to that extent isn't acceptable.
You are right, but I have not experienced any noise.
Great video! Honestly, I was a little bit surprised at the quality of the toroid and winding. I hadn't even thought about testing the resistor rig! Great tip 👍👏
Thank you!
Thank you just getting started
l recently bought one, got it serviced and tuned, waiting for my antenna to be delivered then l'm on the air, looking forward to it. Cheers from VK5BMS
It’s a great rig. Mine is unfortunately not working at the moment after being a bit overconfident on my servicing skills.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Awesome 😊
Thanks 🤗
@ very helpful video. I sincerely appreciate your efforts in creating that presentation
Nice review! Two and a hours for set up is great.
It’s not bad at all. This is a very well designed kit.
Very nice.
Thanks!
So we get a better view of your hallway/shack.
You absolutely do. It’s about the size, but how you use it.
I use 2 ESP32 relay boards via node-red to control almost everything I need.
I used a relay board and a raspberry pi before this, but the possibilities here are endless.
Awesome set up 👏 How robust is the coax switch connections; with weight of coax, PL259's, etc.?
As far as I can see it’s very robust. No issues at all. Everything is very well designed.
Good work
@@HamRadio2 Thanks Jason!
Sherry did you find case ?
I do not know if Sherry found the case. I found it on Thingiverse though.
You actually have a great video image even with the low sun. Great content too, thanks!
Thanks! I struggled a bit with the light when setting up, but it was one of those days where all the good parking spots at the park was taken.
Now that thing looks really sweet! Wish I had a proper home shack so I could get one. But I think for portable operations (and especially SOTA) it may be a bit overkill! Looking forward to the next parts! Oh; and what type of temperature probes dies it use? I may have some so you can test that too if there wasn't any in the box you got from George!
@@LB5JJ I have probes, and they work actually. I have spent the day hunting noise from the Station Controller, I am now out of toroids, but it’s noise free. The temperature probes actually created some noise. But yes, it’s an amazing project.
I’m looking forward to the next video. Thanks for sharing! My husband and I are thinking about purchasing one of George’s controllers
There does not seem to be a lot of bugs on the beta units. And I am sure the bugs will be ironed out when the final release comes. I think this is a very good product for both in the shack and remote.
@@LB0FIThanks for the FT8 contact around 3:10 UTC on Saturday morning!
@@MaineGirl-W1GRL Thanks to you as well. I had to crank the power up a little bit, but we made it!
