Re: Low "reception" issue
Thanks wicknix! I copied Georgy's newest modified BASE 1.1.6 over to /usr/firmware and "downgraded". Things are working better now. You guys are good.

Re: Low "reception" issue
Glad to help, and it¡¯s good to know that you also gained improved RX by using BASE 1.1.6.

Re: Low "reception" issue
@wicknix - Thanks for the help! With the 1.1.6 BASE, my s-unit ¡°comparison¡± seems much closer between the x6100 and the g90 now.? I'm actually starting to think that this was probably an

Re: Low "reception" issue
I have two x6100s. Regardless of whether I use PRE/ATT, the difference between the devices is always 2-3 S-levels. The RF gain is 100 on both devices. The firmware is also the same. Unfortunately, I

Re: Low "reception" issue
@wicknix - So, to mix versions, would one install an older version, say APP-1.1.7 / BASE-1.1.6, boot the radio, use the OS to flash the older baseband and then just go back an install the newer

Re: Low "reception" issue
I noticed RX was lower on BASE 1.1.7 and BASE 1.1.8 also, which is why i prefer base 1.1.6 (and because 1.1.6¡¯s NR is superior compared to other versions). It RX¡¯s so well i have to turn the RF

Re: Low "reception" issue
Double checked RF Gain and it is at 100, which is where I always run it (which I thought was odd).? I was running App 1.1.9/ Base 1.1.8 when I noticed issues, but also tried App 1.1.8/Base 1.1.7 to

Re: Low "reception" issue
If you BASE firmware is 1.1.7 or 1.1.8 you should set RFG to 100 (not 63). You can check BASE firmware version under system settings -> system info menu. -- Georgy // R2RFE

Re: Low "reception" issue
Have you reinstalled the firmware? I have the same problem but my SD card slot is broken so I can't reinstall the firmware. I looked at the board but couldn't find any hardware errors.

Low "reception" issue
Seems I'm having low "reception" issues with my x6100 lately. ?I decided to do some testing with my g90 and FT8 as a baseline for an incoming signal. Using the same antenna / coax reception on the

Re: X6100 RX audio noises
Thanks, Rainer, for your spot-on observations! According to the manufacturer, my headphones have an impedance of 25 Ohms and a sensitivity of 121dB/mW. Yesterday, I experimented a bit with attenuators

Re: X6100 RX audio noises
Hi all, there are two points to keep in mind: 1) the LM386 is not exactly a low noise / low distortion audio amplifier 2) the perceived signal-to-noise ratio also depends on the sensitivity of the

If so, then you could say that Xiegu did you a favor by motivating you to start working on your TRX Brass! Either way, it's good! :D
