      Loving it so far! Been using it in the shack this week to get more familiar with it.

    Nice one Kn3a I think you need to play around a bit with the mic tx settings
    In the range you’re looking at I’d have expected much better reports.

    Where did you bought it? there are plenty of seller advert with old (2nd generation) version pictures with 3 rd generation title advert, so hard to find the thrue. I'm lookin for a good 3rd generation seller link. thanks.

      When running CW as QRP, I always send 72 - it's something that QRP ops at least in the U.S. do. 72 de KN3A. :)

    Thanks for sharing! How long did it take to get the radio? I have been watching the website for months and no availability? Wondering if you found a waiting list or other option to purchase?

      It took about 2.5 months. Sorry just now seeing this reply. Did you get one yet?

    Was your swr high as hell the whole time, it was kinda out of focus and hard to tell

    • @BikingHikingRadio
      @BikingHikingRadio  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No not at all, I was running 5 watts on CW and it was showing the power, not SWR. And, yes, it was out of focus. The decision to record was a last minute thing and I believe I was dealing with a dirty lens on the camera. I am not a famous TH-camr, just wanted to record first activation with this fine radio. Thanks for watching.

      @BikingHikingRadio I gotcha, the othere day I went out portable, set up a camera and realized half way through the activation I never hit record 😂🤣. Awesome video BTW maybe one day I'll catch you on the air, it be pretty neat to have a qso with 2 fx-4cr's

      That would be awesome. I'd like to hear how another one sounds live.

      What do you use for a camera to record?

      @BikingHikingRadio I have an insta 360, I've always hated having to frame something and it would take me twice as long to get it all set up so I just went with a 360 camera so I can just put it near me and hit record, then later on in the editing software I can decide where I want to look
