Ham Radio Transceivers

Anytone AT-778UV FM Dual Band Transceiver

The Anytone AT-778UV is a popular dual-band FM transceiver known for its affordability and solid features. Operating on VHF (144-148 MHz) and UHF (440-450 MHz) bands, it offers selectable power outputs of 25W, 15W, or 5W. Its bright 180-degree TFT LCD display and intuitive interface enhance usability in various settings. While it delivers good audio quality and a robust build, it lacks a dedicated volume knob and may heat up during extended use. Overall, it's an excellent entry-level choice for amateur radio enthusiasts.

Top Amateur Radio Websites – Issue 2629

This week, we've pulled together a few items that touch on practical build projects and some useful theory. There's a look at constructing a simple, yet effective, multiband antenna for portable operations, something that comes up often for POTA activators. We also have a detailed build log for an automatic antenna tuner, which can be a real asset for those experimenting with various wire configurations. For the Icom IC-7300 owners, there are a couple of interesting modifications: one addresses a common complaint about fan noise, and another explores a custom microphone setup for improved audio. Finally, we revisit some fundamental principles regarding ferrites and coils, offering practical rules of thumb for RF projects, particularly useful for HF applications. It’s a mix of hands-on work and foundational knowledge, all aimed at enhancing the operating experience.
