V19 VHF/UHF

Bryan, KJ7PRS #10 Greetings, Thanks for all that you do, it is making the radio better to use in many ways. ? I tuned to simplex 146.550 and transmitted. ?It appeared to transmit but my other radios did not hear it. ?I transmitted with my other radios and received no signal on the X6100. ?I tuned VHF and UHF and found no signals. ?Is this working? If VHF/UHF can work we could maybe get APRS? ?Even if we have to use a Mobilinkd dongle. ?We could even get into WINLINK. Thanks again, Bryan KJ7PRS

That is because you need a Transverter for the radio to do VHF/uhf, Dave toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Sat, 25 Nov 2023, 20:02 Bryan, KJ7PRS via , <martinfab=[email protected]> wrote: Greetings, Thanks for all that you do, it is making the radio better to use in many ways. ?

Phil Cornell [email protected] #12 The X6100 is a HF + 6 meter QRP transceiver, it does not have VHF/UHF capabilities.? As Dave pointed out, you need a transverter, a separate piece of equipment, to operate on the VHF/UHF bands with the x6100.? Trying to transmit on a band not included in the hardware capabilities could possibly damage the radio.? A firmware upgrade alone does not give the radio the capability to operate in bands that are outside of the hardware design limits.? If you are looking for an all band radio, the X6100 is not it by itself.? Look for a Yaesu FT-991A or equivalent to get that kind of coverage. The X6100 is a great little radio and performs well within its design limitations, I have one and have worked Alaska, Cayman Is., Spain and Hawaii on SSB using a VG4 multi-band vertical on 10 watts.? The only thing I would like to see is FM Repeater capabilities on 6 and 10 meters, (ability to program offsets and pl tones). Hope this helps. 73 Phil W7PLC
Bryan, KJ7PRS #13 开云体育 My mistake, ?I quickly watched the video. ?I had read a post a while back where someone thought it may have that capability. ?I was doubtful. ? I have a 705 and 7100 so I’m good. Thanks for the responses. ?Stay healthy. toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Nov 25, 2023, at 13:44, Phil Cornell w7plc@... <w7plc@...> wrote: ?The X6100 is a HF + 6 meter QRP transceiver, it does not have VHF/UHF capabilities.?

davebb123456 All Messages By This Member #16 Hi Matt The radio does not do 2m 70cm without a Transverter unit connected, and I told him when I had seen the video that he was overloading his front end of the radio, Dave toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Sun, 26 Nov 2023, 13:18 Matt 9V1MH/VK2AMH/YF2AAH, <matthoward.sg@...> wrote:
