The SGC 2020 hf transceiver - LCF School lcfschool
Reprint from SGC company Information:
The SG-2020 covers all HF frequencies from 1.8 to 30 Mhz. It is factory-set for 20 watts PEP with front panel power adjustments down to 1W using USB or LSB. There are 20 factory pre-programmed memories preset to frequencies within each of the nine amateur bands for fast band accessibility. Each memory position can be selected for a specific transmitter output power, specific amount of bandwidth filtering, mode and split VFO. The memory channels can be re-programmed to accommodate alternate frequencies of your choice within the frequency range and a simple unlock procedure allows you to choose any HF frequency worldwide.

All Reasons. All Seasons.
This is the transceiver for base, backpack or business trips - the ultimate portable trasceiver. There are no confusing menus and just two-step operation: select your frequency and transmit. The SG-2020 is compact and weighs only 4.5 pounds. Operate SSB or CW from wherever you are. The radio comes standard with SGCs superior ADSP² noise canceling technology, so you can copy signals loud and clear. The SG-2020 ADSP² is pure, simple HF at its best. The above reprinted from the SGC company information.

  • I have one of these. I was in Ontario last Month and worked both Austrailia and New Zealand on 20 watts over 12000km the video of the actual setup is on my channel, I made a few mods ie a Heil 4 microphone and a 2 resistor mod so the SGC2020 works well with the 4 element.

    Cheers M0SFX

  • @damianmcsorley Thanks very much for the comment - Sound like you are having very good use out of your SGC 2020 - I do like mine and have used it for many operations and still keep it for fun and backup unit - Some times I drive my Henry 2k amp if other radio is not working and I get about 400 watts or so out. 73 Dave KK4WW

  • We are in the Appalachian Music community of Floyd Virginia - I am also making a small museum display of some of my computers available to the public in the Village Green. We are on the "Blue Ridge Parkway" & " The Crooked Road - Virginia's Heritage Music Trail" . A lot of good things here - drop in and see us sometime. Also if you are biker this is a big stop over for riders on the Blue Ridge Parkway - Dave

  • Thanks for the 2020 video. Hope to see some more featuring the rig in cw mode. I had two and always regretted selling them. Just purchased another, obviously 2nd-hand this time. They were primary rigs before and this one will be primary rig again. Sure wish the 2020 was back in production. My FT-817ND is great but sometimes the small size controls are annoying.

  • @uslines Hi Thank you for the comment - I feel the 2020 is a reasonably good CW rig with the keyer options if you have the DSP installed. I do very little so can't give really expert answer. I did and still use the rig and it has been a good one for me. We used it several times in the 90's in Dominica - mostly with ALS 500 AMP and always did a good job. It is one rig I will not sell. 73 Dave KK4WW PS may want to look at our Dominica videos at floydradio-net

  • @musketman2008 Always glad to have contact with viewers- thanks Dave

  • @lcfgroup Thanks! I appreciate the very personal reply. Hope to work you as well.

  • @musketman2008 Hi Glad to know you have one - I would sure hang on to it as they are becoming a real collectible but very functional radio. I still use mine as back up to my regular station and with the little mod I put in I can easily drive an amp if needed. We are leaving on mission trip to Dominica the 10 of Jan for couple of weeks and will be operating as J79WW hope to work you. You can follow our op on twitter-com/n4usa also you can see some of our projects at missiononearth-com 73's

  • I have one of these and I love it!
