Re: Portable vertical antenna suggestions

Re: Frequency scale suddenly miscalibrated
What type of antenna are you using? I have found that common mode current can make the radio do strange things that disconnecting and shutting down the radio corrected. Make sure you add a choke close

Re: Xiegu x6100 in combination with XPA125B issue
