Hamradioconcepts

Hamradioconcepts Not just amateur radio, posts about ANYTHING.. Started in Amateur radio in 2005, of course 11 meters since i was 10 years old. Also echolink.

I enjoy everything about this hobby, in fact i spend more time experimenting with all the different modes and features of this hobby than anything else. I homebrew my antennas for HF, in fact i do not own a commercially built antenna, and my best made antennas were made out of RG6 cable tv coax as the radiating elements. My operating modes include:
HF (80 through 10m) SSB/AM and FM.. VHF, UHF, sat

ellite communications (working the birds), analog AND digital such as D-star, Yaesu system fusion. Packet on VHF and HF, PSK31/63, SSTV, email over RF, APRS and whatever else you can think of. I'm a Yaesu fan, but own Kenwood and Icom as well. I have most all the Baofeng models, and some other China manufacturers such as Luiton and Wouxun. My youtube channel name is Hamradioconcepts, and i have videos reviewing equipment from Baofeng to MFJ, Yaesu, Icom and Ameritron. I'm getting ready to do some videos for the beginner such as "operating PSK and other digital modes", "How to build a wire antenna" and more. After 10+ years in the hobby, i want to give others an insight into the hobby, and i have spent more time experimenting on all the modes to offer than others that have been licensed for 20 years

These prices lately are VERY affordable for hams to get into HF in 2025, with 100 watts and something that is true Japan quality and performance, for under $200. I see working radios that are nice for this kind of price everyday and I drop little bids on them to see what happens. These days, Icom 7300s are going for $700 used, so it has dropped the price big time of all the older Icom and Yaesu rigs, which work TOTALLY fine and sound WAY better than Xiegu, sBitx and some of the other weird plastic radios being sold on Amazon, that only output 5 watts and cost $200 and higher. The deals are out there, you just got to look, and DONT BE A SCOPE HEAD!!!!

FOR SALE: Radioddity DB-40d, dual band DMR and analog 40 watt radio with APRS, GPS, Bluetooth, cross band repeat, same band repeat, Bluetooth earpiece, microphone and mounting bracket. $300 shipped. I really done use it, it just sits here. I do not use DMR, and all I used it for was APRS and simplex. Manual is online, I can't find the original manual somehow, it's around here, but it's on the website.

I ALMOST won it. I think with the 2 meter and 6 meter modules that was a decent price.

I had this same Midland CB radio base station when I was like 12 years old, but mine required power to work...And I'm pretty sure the SWR on that set is very high with the short telescopic on the back.
LOL, I can't watch any movie without spotting a CB or ham radio that's being operated without a coax or a power cable
