It would be a fun way to get back into the hobby! I was surprised at how well it performed. And it is so light and small that you can carry it in your pocket!
I've been having a blast with mine. Best DX on SSB so far is MT to HI at around 4watts. The internal speaker is pretty minimal, I made a speaker mic out of an old CB mic with a electret element from the junk drawer and a small speaker from a Motorola mic. For CW I still use the speaker in the mic along with a small straight key. Great little rig!
Tom, thank you for sharing! Montana to Hawaii on 4-watts, SSB, fantastic! Hey, I'm not too far from you, maybe we can set up a sked for a CW QSO? Thank you again Tom!
Somebody help me here.. let me take it to understand... this tiny device decodes the morse code translating it, as well as it also transmit? 😱😱😱😱😱 Wow! 💚💛💙🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 👏👏👏👏👏👏

It does it all in one tiny package. It is quite amazing :-)

I have not seen any other videos showing this - your emoticons match the look on my face when saw the video!!!!
A decoder as well, didn’t know that. They packed a lot into that little radio
They sure do. And I am really surprised at how well it works. Of course, the best decoder is in our own heads!
Great Overview, Jim. What is SST ? 73 Manuel; DL2MAN
