Vlastnosti Xiegu X6100 transceiver-a
X6100 has an independent main part and VF part. Jednotka hlavnej časti poskytuje ovládanie, pokročilé spracovanie údajov, spracovanie digitálneho signálu, funkcie multimediálneho rozhrania. Nové funkcie sa môžu nepretržite pridávať prostredníctvom aktualizácií firmvéru. VF jednotka je založená na štruktúre Software Defined Radio so samostatnými vysielacími a prijímacími cestami. Vďaka 24-bitovej vzorkovacej frekvencii a front-endu s veľkou dynamikou je Xiegu X6100 vysokovýkonný transceiver, ktorý vám umožní pracovať s celým svetom, keď ste na dobrodružstve v prírode, v kempe alebo na pláži ďaleko.
X6100 has two USB interfaces . One USB with a converter to a serial port and a sound card and the other to support a mouse, keyboard, and storage devices. The microSD card slot allows backup and transfer of memory channels and voice recorder recordings. The XPA125B amplifier can be connected using a special cable (optional accessory) to achieve a transmission power of 100 W. External third-party Software Defined Radio Software applications, such as HDSDR, can be connected via an I/Q output signal.

We will see what the reality will be, the weight cannot be determined from marketing information (I found 1.5kg and 2.2kg), essential for this type of device, readability of the display in the sun, real implementation of the front end, i.e. type and number of conversions before the stereo sound card which is here as a DAC, filtering (LPF, BPF, roofing filters or MF filters), whether the suppression of mirrors, which the solution with I/Q is sensitive to, was successful. According to available information, this is essentially KX3 (introduced in 2012, weight 680g) with a color display, better processor, and connectivity butwithout 2m ;).
You are definitely right, they can present it great from a marketing perspective. It's interesting that the trend is shifting from cheap devices to more expensive ones. It started with Baofeng, continued with the mcHF clone, and this should be a direct competitor to Elecraft...
