Looks much better, nice work Chuck and thanks Steve for doing these X6100 videos.

@jimreed6503 2 года назад

I need to change mine too. Thanks for this. On a separate subject, if you have a G90 and X6100, make sure you label the mics. The G90 mic is much "hotter" and using it in the X6100 will cause severe over modulation. Cheers ZL1LC

Oh really, I have the 90, 5105 and now the 6100 and all mine are the same

Just dove into the WW CW contest on 20m with a dipole and 100w amp. Worked stations in EU and Carib, Receiver did well and TX was good. I used a Begali paddle that almost cost as much as the radio. The pan display was a big help. I heard the CR3 nicely on a whip with ground radials. In playing with it for a couple of weeks. I think it will need a carrying case or padded bag to keep down the wear and tear.

Here is the case I use with mine. Tight fit, but I wanted something I could put in a bag. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YL9icxTSg1g.html

Hi great info, red is kind of annoying, white looks good, change back ground colors would be great, black on white back ground could be better in some instances, hopefully they might do a firmware change to whatever colors you want? Thanks

Thank Todd we have some coders here hack this quirky radio. I guess if Xiegu does change the password, it may be possible to work around it. If they know what's good for them, they will leave it at 123. The radio being hackable- helps them sell more radios. The lack of shielding between boards internally will still plague us with ghost signals etc. Oh well.

@temporarilyoffline 2 года назад

Since the radio will boot from SD card, we can interrupt the boot cycle and insert our own code/reset the password that way. I'm fairly certain we are safe. Check out TOADs, we now have a working linux boot image available!

I wish we had a version of this for the newest firmware. I have old man eyes as well.

@emcomms_dude 2 года назад

Can this be done without the use of a raspberry-pi and over say the WiFi connection? Or maybe a windows PC plugged into the DEV port? Thanks for any and all help!

@temporarilyoffline 2 года назад

Yes, it can. All you need is the ability to connect a serial terminal.

@johnnybgood6255 2 года назад

Hi is there an update for the latest version? thanks for the videos have enjoyed watching them. (and others)

@temporarilyoffline 2 года назад

We found a way to write a script and I need to make a video on how to do it with the latest firmware.

@johnnybgood6255 2 года назад

That would be awesome. I have managed to alter the hex code to change the red to white for volume and power (Kenny Wyss) but changing the power limit etc was beyond me. thanks and cheers.

@gnormhurst Год назад

Our eyes don't perceive colors as equally bright. Red, green and blue are weighted as 21%, 72% and 7% respectively. After display gamma of 2.4, red is 0.21^2.4 = 0.0236 and blue is 0.07^2.4 = 0.0017 for a contrast ratio of 14.0. But blue-on-white is a contrast ratio of 1.00/.0017 = 588. 588 is much bigger than 14.

@temporarilyoffline Год назад

Sometimes Red on Blue even hurts a little.

Can I use WinSCP to overwrite this file and get the white text?

@temporarilyoffline 2 года назад

I don't see why not. If it doesn't work, you can re-flash the firmware to fix it.

@SheepdogPreparedness 2 года назад

@@temporarilyoffline It worked, but apparently the white text ui file was compiled from 1.1.3 because it shows up that way in System, so it doesn't have the other 1.1.4 features, like the ability to turn off the peak hold meter feature and what not.
