Xiegu X6100 SDR HF and 6 m
Portable HF and 50 MHz SDR transceiver, 10 W, automatic tuner, built-in battery, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
The Xiegu X6100 is an ultra-portable SDR transceiver for HF and 6 m in all modes, with direct-conversion and direct-sampling architecture, built-in automatic tuner and lithium battery.
Product description
It has independent baseband and RF units. The baseband handles control, data and DSP processing and interfaces, and gains new functions with firmware updates. The RF unit has separate transmit and receive paths, 24-bit sampling and a wide-dynamic-range front end.
It delivers 10 W with an external supply and 5 W from the internal 12 V 3.5 Ah battery. The 4" colour display (800 × 480) shows spectrum and waterfall; there is an SWR scanner, voice memories and CW memories.
It has two USB ports: one with built-in serial adapter and sound card, the other for mouse, keyboard and storage. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support wireless audio, keyboard and mouse. The micro SD slot is used to back up memories and recordings. The I/Q output allows external SDR software such as HDSDR to be used.
With the dedicated optional cable it connects to the Xiegu XPA125B amplifier to reach 100 W.
