XIEGU G106 [ Video Review ]

XIEGU G106

Here we take a look at the XIEGU G106 HF 5 WATT QRP TRANSCEIVER.

G106 is a 5W portable QRP model with SDR circuit structure which uses 16bit-CODEC sampling and can deliver superior performance. The whole machine has SSB/CW/AM three modes and extra WFM (88~108MHz) receiving function, allowing you to listen to local FM broadcasts while communicating. Equipped with a CW digital filter with three bandwidths, it can help you connect to more and farther radio stations. With the external DE-19 digital adapter (optional), it can be easily connected to the computer and complete FT8 communication.

As an entry-level portable SDR transceiver, G106 will be a good helper for you to play CW and FT8.
