[Question] Harmonics on 6m Band #27

Closed MLGHerobrine closed 1 year ago

MLGHerobrine commented 1 year ago

I apologize for asking this question here, but I do not have access to Telegram (maybe another platform would allow more people to join?). What are the harmonics like on the 6m band with this radio? I don't have a dummy load or reader and I don't want to interfere with anyone.

Edit: What are the harmonics + power output?

MLGHerobrine commented 1 year ago

Found a video with power output... I recommend putting this on the README in case anyone wonders what frequency they can transmit on without (a lot of) harmonics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydf4jsZpaPw

You're right, not everyone has access to Telegram. Considering the research nature of the repo, I will endeavor to compile people's test results elsehow. For your reference, I'll put some results collected by Ismo, OH2FTG below. image image image image image image image

Thanks! I'll eventually figure out how to tune the hardware to transmit on those lower frequencies. HF handhelds probably aren't practical, but they will be quite fun :)

Strong harmonics also from 200to 300MHz
