    I watched William's video at work today, saw the shirt and said "that's from saveitforparts!"

    When I watched Wills video and he said "Sand people" and showed the flyer I went " I know who that guy is!" lmao 😂 Sick gift to send him! He's going to have a classic computer museum by Christmas! 😂

      I hope they didn't collide too hard or else they might not survive in order to do a collab.

    In the 80's the TRS-80 had a Morse Code program. My highschool friend hooked up 2 TRS 80's each to FM bug kits bought from Disk Smith (Aussie Radio Shack like shop) and Walkmans and could transmit messages over about 100m in what was literally the first wireless network I'd ever witnessed

    Loved the M100 I had in the 90's. Reminds me of the notes I took with it for a community college IBM System/360 assembly course that I shouldn't have even bothered taking. LOL

    @7:09 that Quansheng transceiver is going to be fun! Numerous clever people have made hardware hacks/mods for this radio to open it up to many more frequencies than it ships with.

    That Quansheng radio can be updated with firmware to go on 10m and other hf bands for RX. Its a more advanced baofeng. Look it up on youtube.

  • @JamieLovick
    @JamieLovick 21 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +2

    The radios look cool, reminds me of 70's TV shows and movies. The one you picked up and showed in the video is apparently a Standard or Telemobile C834L, and according to the EA4GWY Museum, good for 146-174 MHz using crystals swapped internally. My old 27 MHz radios (similar to the Realistic ones used on Stranger Things) were the same, you had to swap the RX and TX crystals to change channels. I'm guessing the units would need re-capping as well.

    • @JamieLovick
      @JamieLovick 21 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +1

      A quick check online shows that it should work in the US VHF Marine frequency range, if you can find suitable crystals.

  • @noelandrew3600
    @noelandrew3600 21 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +2

    the Quansheng radio is a K5 triband radio i think you will find, and they are known as the worlds most hackable hand held with full band capability and multiple hacked firmware available and a hardware hack to make it all band capable. and the portapack is a fun bit of kit im sure you will feature in the future, i received one the same state with a busted rotary encoder, i replaced that and its working well, but its surface mount so not a fun job, but you can buy replacement front panels. all mode sdr with some cool software on it

    I like the Quansheng radios, there are all sorts of hacked firmware versions out there which allow them to do proper airband receive, SSB receive, etc, as well as the normal VHF/UHF FM. You can even fit a board which will extend its HF coverage right down.

    You and william keep getting the same kinds of packages, just the contents of someone's junk drawer that they can't bring themselves to get rid of, projects that mostly work, piles of useful stuff, etc. The only problem for you is that your viewers don't seem as concerned about having their letters read so you're gonna have a hard time copying his monetization strategy.
