“Hello Operators. In this video we take a look at the Xiegu G90, Portable Ham Radio. We’ll talk about who might enjoy this rig, and why we might want to add the #Xiegu G90 HF 20w SDR transceiver to our portable ham radio collection. Finally, we finish up by measuring recieve current, and current draw during transmit. The Xiegu G90 came with a cable for Xiegu G90 CAT control cable. It also came with a breakout box to use the Xiegu G90 with FT8 or other digital modes. 73 Julian #oh8stn“
