Xiegu bangs-out another one, the X6100.
« on: January 04, 2022, 2000 UTC »
Huh... Still learning the Xiegu G90, but looks like Xiegu has found their niche market, which seems more than a niche.   https://swling.com/blog/2022/01/the-new-xiegu-x6100-is-it-a-good-sw-mw-broadcast-band-receiver/


And yes, I did move this over from RF Workbench. Duh-know why I put it there in the 1st place. I'll blame it on the coffee not hitting me, yet.

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”

It appears they fused what they learned from gsoc and the 90 into one lower powered unit.
They pinched off an fw update for the 90 after concentrating on the new rig, new fw makes mine crackle on sigs weak and strong so back to the 77b fw.
As noted in the story, the 6100 seems to respond with images to ambc and hfbc, not good! Sadly like its father the 90 in this respect.
