  • @RobertWardJones
    @RobertWardJones 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That is so awesome! I have been wanting to put a radio up high or in a tree with a good antenna and not have losses do to a coax cable and this looks like a great implementation! Thankyou!

    • @NovemberOneOscarGrouch
      @NovemberOneOscarGrouch 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You could make your CAT control cable from some CAT6. Tie some cordage around that radio and throw it over the tree. You can do it! Post pictures when you're done.

    • @BadgerScrub
      @BadgerScrub 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Will putting it higher even work? What exactly the does do aside from make it harder to work with? I'm not trying to be mean or condescending, truly. I am new to this stuff, but my understanding is that radio waves travel at the speed of light and the quality of their signal wouldn't be obstructed by anything if not put in a tree or be received noticably sooner because of being put up.

    • @NovemberOneOscarGrouch
      @NovemberOneOscarGrouch 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@BadgerScrub honestly, my comment was complete sarcasm. The idea of putting the radio in a tree with a super long custom control cable is not practical. The smarter option would be to have an antenna adapter from the SMA to a BNC or PL259 and then run a bit of coax to a better V/UHF antenna in a tree or mounted higher.

    I wasn't going to get a quansheng, but this makes me want to do this lil project.. Pretty cool.. It would be really cool, if you could use your computer for the mic and audio with just the programing cable.. Would be really cool if you could do ft8 or sstv with it aswell..

    • @ModernHam

      I'll be honest. I only have the radios to hack around with. They never actually get real use.

  • @whiteb0rd
    @whiteb0rd 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Wow!
    This opens some serious project possibilities:
    - Use TWO cheapass radios linked to a controlling computer as a repeater.
    - Like one or two to a computer to implement a much higher powered DMR (or other digital mode) hotspot. The computer handles the digital part and the link to the internet.
    - Who knows what else?
    Can't wait to see what comes of this.....

    Your developing well from your first shows. Dont look at them! That is the way it is for everyone save professional journalist and people who have shifted from TV or radio...Why Files (he was professional DJ and TV show presenter but is a very good journalist. He clearly has either a awesome staff or has formal education or both....
    A script and teleprompter helps every body - even if it's just like an outline to help you remember every point or if you've actually written it out completely. I'm a lawyer so when I give appete briefs, I normally just use an outline and make sure I hit all my points and have it drilled down to just cue cards because you want to keep an eye contact with the judges you just want to know your issue completely and be ready for any question and then when you're in court that's a whole different set of circumstances it's completely dynamic and potentially very fluid again you still have to know your issue and have done your homework.

    • @ModernHam
      @ModernHam  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It's a shame push-to-talk wasn't implemented in software. My computer microphone is so much better than anything on a Chinese handy talkie and it would have removed the need for the butchered cable. Definitely a feature someone should ask Quansheng to make available in a future release. These guys are going to crush Baofeng if they can continue to innovate and release. Just integrating the community hacks would take them to a new level.

    • @ModernHam

      Sorry you couldn't figure it out. Maybe try asking about what part you are held up on. There are dozens of comments here from people who were able to get it up and running after watching, you could try asking one of them for help. Software that is cutting edge like this often requires a bit of technical background, so you may struggle without a foundation. There are also other videos on the same topic, but you will probably struggle just the same, as this is more of a skill issue on your part. After all, something has to be different between yourself and everyone else here right? Nah, it's probably my explanation.
