Continuing the discussion from Xiegu X6100/6200, the real FT-817 successor? (Part 1):
It’s a fundamental architecture change too. All the popular recent QRP rigs such as the Xeigu are SDR’s usually running open source foundations like Linux. More software, less hardware.
As a Xeigu user, the 6100 is a great radio. I love it, for the money it’s lots of bang for your buck.
Very interested to try the 6200 to see if the extra $$$ is worth it. I don’t believe it will be heavier than the 6100 unless you get more battery and going down to 8w is stupidity - even if just for Xeigu’s marketing, it will probally make sod all difference the field.
