  1. I have designed another 3D printed quality of life improvement for my Xiegu G90. This time, it's a set of legs that elevate the front of the radio for a better viewing angle.

    I do actually use the radio to do radio things, but those activities don't seem interesting enough to share. 🤣

  2. In my latest blog post I discuss my temporary solution for storing and transporting my #HamRadio station and a 3D printed cover that I designed to protect the front panel.

  3. Hi #HamRadio friends! Thanks to everyone who took the time to read my posts last week.

    I came up with a design for a clip-on mic hangar for the #xiegu G90.

    Check out my blog for more details: tdot.fish/2026/02/08/g90-mic-h

    Or grab the STL and print your very own on from Printables: printables.com/model/1591939-x

    Milder weather is coming to my area this week so hopefully I can get back on the air soon ... good thing because I'm out of 3D print ideas for the moment.

  13. HI #hamradio friends.

    I could not find a clear explanation on how to work the filter on my #xiegu #G90 with the current (v.1.80+ firmware), so I put one together for the community.

    It can be found on my blog for those who prefer a read: tdot.fish/2026/01/16/g90-filter

  17. The #XieguG90 simple, fun & effective…. I’m really enjoying mine.

  18. Graphical summary of my participation as EE5E in the ARRL CW DX contest. Ninety-one contacts on 10, 15 and 20 m, most in the east coast of North America and Great Lakes area. I was using a 5-metre vertical wire with a 49:1 and #5W of power, with a BaMaKey paddle attached to my #XieguG90 (20 WPM). Used Not1MM+Flrig for logging and CAT. Sat for about 14 hours in total.

    #ARRLCW

    P.S. The shortest valid ham call sign in the world is not EE5E, as I thought, but rather I5E if it were ever issued.

  19. Just finished another Parks on the Air activation with 27 valid POTA contacts in the log! Field report will be at kf0mcx.com soon!

  20. "Fix Your Radio Hour" a success, except I forgot to take a photo of my operating position at Burns Park in Ann Arbor under the shelter. (Very civilized, with a picnic table to set up on, and a handy nail to hang my 2 meter roll-up J-pole antenna.)

    I have borrowed a #XieguG90 to use as a portable HF station, and I have an offer to borrow an end-fed random wire antenna. This would be the park to operate all that from. The #G90 is in a very nice go kit.

  25. Thank you all for your recommendations on gear for POTA and SOTA. As much of a Yaesu fanboy as I am, I decided to go with the Xiegu G90. Just ordered it and how could I pass up the price tag of $399 for the radio and extras? It makes more sense since I’ll be away with this radio anyway since I live in a townhome. I will definitely get a more traditional base HF right when we move eventually. Now…any recommendations for antennas?

  26. Beeing very glad about today's QSO on 10m. Contact #1 two days ago went to Saudi Arabia, today's #2 to Namibia, Windhoek with a solid 55! That's 7794 km/4842.967072 mi. Thank you Mike/V51MA!

    The T2LT antenna works exceptionally fine. The SWR is nothing but a dream. I heard again Chile and even a station from the USA. Maybe next time they'll receive me too...?

  27. Trying to figure out what is making the TX power and ALC go blrrrrbrrrrrblrrrr while I transmit on #ft8 #xiegug90 :alex_sob:

  28. My #ADK #POTA trip to Limekiln Lake was a success.

    180+ QSOs & 3 activations - all on solar power in a forest with too much shade AND most of my time on the #lateshift.

    I managed to work stations on 10, 20, 40, and 80 meters. I was successful on FT4 , FT8, and SSB. While I tried #RTTY, I never got a call back. I'll keep trying, however.

    All this was done with a #XieguG90 and an 80m #EFHW up 15-20ft.

  29. #Introductions

    KB2DSR here. I'm an Amateur Extra in Troy, NY. I got my Novice ticket in 1986 or 87 (I think).

    I enjoy #POTA, where I use a #XieguG90 and a solar system for power. I'm just getting into playing with #DMR and I'm Net Control for the TARA Social Net on the N2TY repeaters.

    My main HF rig is a Yeasu FT-450D and my shack computer is a Raspberry Pi4.

    I also, hunt, fish, lift weights, and grow a garden.
