XIEGU X6100 - SDR portable HF transceiver (review)

[@Badutspringer]

Thanks, my man. Wonderful unboxing. I played this in 2X speed and it felt natural. Only three espressos, this morning

Really enjoyed your review ! Just got mine X6100 so I can hardly wait to hook it up to that awesome antenna I received from you and give it a go !

Internal soundcard already put this on my radar but I truly perked up when I saw the built-in SWR Scan... I'm surprised that's not an advertised feature we see in the new SDR offerings. Edit: now I've looked around and seen the Icom SDR rigs have SWR Scan, I'm honestly surprised that feature isn't pushed out more in advertisements.

Thanks, OM0ET, I've made a mental note to investigate this radio further. I believe for me it would make an inexpensive and incredibly functional alternative to non sdr modern base station rigs, whether they be new or old. Keep up the excellent work, interest and reviews.

[@marcreynolds7948]

Not sure about the internal mic on that radio, but the Xiegu handheld mics have the mic element covered by the silicone membrane keypad sheet. This makes your voice sound muffled. If you open the microphone assy and remove the keypad sheet you can drill a small hole thru the location that covers the mic. Note you can't just punch a hole with a needle because the membrane will simply close itself, although you might be able to carefully cut a hole as well using precision nippers. Now reassemble the microphone assy and you will get better audio reports. You can also pack the housing with pieces of dense foam to dampen any resonances.

[@OM0ET]

Great! Thank you. I will definitely do it 😃👍

If you purchase the X5105 and then the X6100 again, you can purchase the IC-705 for the total amount of gold. After using the X5105 for about a year, the tuning dial encoder broke down. I bought IC-705 because I can't trust this manufacturer anymore. Although the price is high, the frequency range is wide, and Icom is by far the best in quality.

[@techguy9023]

Stories like that make me think Elecraft, Discovery, or Icom.

Hi Paul, Many thanks for the review of this new rig. How much dose this X6100 cost please Paul. As usual from you, yet another BRILLIANT & Very informative review indeed, as with all of your reviews on new equipment, including the details of how you make & produce your own products. As you may recognise my Callsign and name, you might notice that I follow you as much as I can with all of you live streams, & your normal informative videos. Keep up the good work Paul, & let's hope that 2022 will bring all of us some better times than than the last 3 years. I'm hoping to be able to work you on the radio at some time soon this year, assuming that I can get help with putting up an antenna that works properly. Being disabled restricts me from gettin highly efficient high power (100 Watts & above) capable Antennas installed on my own. Happy New Year Paul. 73, Ray, M0RAY, Locator JO01ii84

Hi Ray, I thank so much for your very kind comment and support of my work here :) I bought it for about 750€ (I don't remember precisely because part of this was an import fees and TAX). I am sorry for your situation Ray, but there must be some kind of solution for sure with kind of antenna, hmm.. Yes, I hope that the 2022 will be at least not worse than 21st. Let's believe it will be better :D We have to be optimistic ;) Best 73 and HNY! Paul

I have the 5105. I think it works ok. You should use headphones or an external speaker because the very small internal one sounds horrible. I wanted to sell it till I tried a better speaker. I didn't want the 6100 because I have heard it is easily overloaded on receive. It mght be fine. I got a good deal on an open box unit anyway.

Or did they finally fix that? Thanks for posting the great review. Barry, KU3X

[@martinsalt1839]

Hi Paul, have you played with the IC-705 ? If not, I suggest you do, that is some radio ! The X6100 is definitely not one of the best transceivers in the market in that class. It's been released with far too many bugs, and the WI-FI / Bluetooth options do not function. I'm sure they will be fixed in time, but it will be down to the initial buyers of this radio to report the bugs and pray Xiegu fix them in a future FW update. I was planning to buy the X6100 but having seen many reviews on KZbin, I wont be buying one and will probably save my pennies for an IC-705.

[@OM0ET]

Hey Martin! :) How are you? The IC-705 is great portable transceiver. Maybe it hasn't bugs, but we have to consider also its price, size, weight, weak battery, no ATU inside, no internal microphone. As I said in the video, these are very important features when hiking, or when I don't want take with me an extra cables, wires and accesories. I believe the FW will be updated on X6100 and some new features will be added too, BT and WiFi included :) It was the same with X5105 and now it's perfect transceiver. Btw, how is your Magloop working? Do you still use it? Happy New Year 2022 to you and yours! 73, Paul ;)

[@martinsalt1839]

@@OM0ET Hey Paul, all good here thanks. Hope all well with you and your family. I don't own either transceiver, but am now leaning heavily towards the IC-705. Unfortunately the experiences I've had in the past with Xiegu transceivers has not been good, and I think they rely on early buyers doing the quality testing for them. I believe they have already relased a FW update to fix the Bluetooth and WLAN issues, and looking at other KZbin videos, this is also not working, so you may be right, in a year or so, the X6100 may be a viable radio, but I don't think they should be selling them with so many faults. Anyway, enough of that !. My Magloop is still working fine, I mainly use it indoors for FT8. I think you've upgraded the design since I bought mine, so you don't have to screw / unscrew the 2 wires into the connector, but it's not a great deal to do. Very happy with it. For info, my main radio is a Yaesu FT857D which I love, all band all mode include 2m FM / SSB, but now looking for a QRP rig, hence my interest in the IC-705 / X6100. Well have a very happy New Year and much joy for 2022. 73. Martin

[@OM0ET]

@Martin Salt Hey Martin :) I am glad you are still using this antenna. Yes, I am still trying to make this Magloop better and easier assemble and use. Current version the MC-20 is also not the final :D because I am developing already a RC-20 which will be the same body but different tuning box - remotely controlled. My goal is to just make this Magloops more user friendly :D The ICOM 705 is great transceiver, I just wish the price wouldn't be twice of the X6100, otherwise I am would go for it too. Btw. I like that feeling, when after every new firmware update I always turn on a bit better radio, hihi :D I am just a damn optimist LOL :D Best 73 Martin!

This is the best Audio I've heard yet on the 6100, maybe due to newer Firmware or due to your low noise location ? Not sure I would pay more for this than what I paid for my FT-891, great radio 5-100 watts. Cool radio though. Can it send psk 31 via keyboard ? that would be cool or do you need external program like FLDigi ? would be great to be able to send psk31, RTTY, Olivia via the radio without the need for a computer.

I don't like that x6100 does not have floating cursor and incremental VFO (faster rotation - bigger step). As soon you rotate VFO than spectrum and waterflow shifts. But anyway, looks promising as new hit in the market.

[@DavidHead-W4WLC]

Great review Paul. Have seen any issues with birdies?

[@MobiusHorizons]

I'm really curious which you find yourself wanting to use now with a bit more time since the initial impressions. The x5105 seems Really well made and nice to use portable, but I feel the waterfall and 10w capability (with external power) of the x6100 would really come in handy. Asking because I am planning on taking my test very soon and looking for a first radio. My thinking is to go for one of these two radios with the idea of eventually purchasing the 100w amplifier.

[@skykingimagery899]

Nice rig. What I would love to see is a comparison of various antennas. It's more than simple specs and wave patterns. You have used a very simple antenna. K6AGE. And I know I am old school but seems that a call with your true call sign followed by phonetics is easier to understand. It takes extra mind bending to translate.

[@docpearson]

I have one of these radios. It fails miserably when trying to fine tune in CW stations. The fine tuning digits on the far right side do not work. It is a severe disappointment. But I do hold hopes that a firmware upgrade Will be able to fix it. I can say one thing though it works perfectly with Ham Radio Deluxe

[@anthonyglaser929]

nice post, good info. Is the internal battery replaceable? Can the radio be run off a/c power if the battery is dead?

Did you construct your magnet loop antenna? Your explanation of all the features was also great. I’m going to look into this rig. Thanks again so much. 73s and stay safe. Old man Dave!
