I recently got myself a Xiegu X6100 HF transceiver. It’s a pocket-size device that packs 10W of power while plugged, and 5W when on battery.
It also includes an SWR meter and a tuner, which is a nice to have when, like me, you only have kinda shitty antennas.
For the device itself, nothing much to say, it just works, and it’s great! I can hear people talk on 14.122MHz somewhat correctly (tho they can’t hear me for now).
Comes in FT8, it’s a digital mode that I wanted to try for some time now, given it works really well with relatively low power. On Fedora, I use the software WSXJT to receive and transmit this mode.
It has a good integration to the Xiegu, which I can just plug into my computer using a USB-C cable.
I’ve already done plenty of contacts using it, it’s pretty amazing how well it works.
If you want to do a contact, I’m usually on the 20m FT8 frequency of 14.074MHz.
