Re: Memory program for X-5105
I've read that logging software like HRDlog or (I think) Log4OM can be used with the X5105 by telling the software that it's connected to an ICOM IC-7000.? Using the CAT/USB cable that comes with the

Re: Antennas for portable or Pedestrian Mobile operation
Here is a pair of pictures of my outdoor antenna testing site, with TV tray desk and folding chair.? The GRA-1899 is mounted on a small tripod. [EDIT] Well, I set them as attachments, and my outgoing
Re: Connecting a ground or counterpoise to the X5105
Doug, I am sure the telescopic antenna could be set to a length that would work as a counter poise. As you said the big problem is going to be mounting and supporting it. I would be more inclined to

Re: Connecting a ground or counterpoise to the X5105
Maybe someone on here can help - I've been wondering about using a telescoping whip as a counterpoise.? I have one about 10 feet long, from Buddipole, with the normal 3/8-24 thread stud on the end.?

The antenna analyzer in the X5105 is very convenient
The antenna analyzer in the X5105 is very convenient.? Especially when you're using an antenna mounted directly on the radio, such as my GRA-1899 (or the extremely similar MFJ-1899). I checked the

Re: Connecting a ground or counterpoise to the X5105
I should also mention how wonderful the X5105's built-in SWR (antenna analyzer) function is! I do also have an MFJ-259 antenna analyzer, and also a NanoVNA-F, that I can take along outside for antenna

Memory program for X-5105
Has anyone discovered a software program that lets you import memory channels for the 5105? Something like RT Systems or Chirp? If so what settings in the 5105 and software did you need to make it

Re: Antennas for portable or Pedestrian Mobile operation
I did have a counterpoise. I should specify that all my work with the 1899 was with a Yeasu FT-817. I have not actually tried it with the 5105. I suppose their could have been something unique to or a

Re: Antennas for portable or Pedestrian Mobile operation
Did you have anything for a counterpoise with the -1899?? When I tried some testing last week, having about 9 feet of wire connected to the BNC outer part made a BIG difference - better than with 17
