Kenwood TH-F6A HT Amateur Radio Transceiver Demo

Just showing my new Kenwood TH-F6A HT radio and demonstrating SSB and CW receive on 20 meters. This radio offers FM receive and transmit capabilities on three different amateur radio bands, (2 meters, 1.25 meters and 70 cm) as well as receive from 100 Khz (LW) to 1.3 Ghz offering different modes such as wide and narrow band FM, AM, LSB, USB and CW. (100 Hz tuning is offered for SSB and CW tuning.) BY the way, I was also able to decode PSK-31 transmissions on 14.070 Mhz on this HT by feeding the audio from the HT to my lap top computer using a PSK-31 decoder program.

Three FM transmit power levels with the supplied Li-ion battery pack High: 5 watts, Low: 1/2 Watts Extra Low: 50 Milliwatts The unit has 2 VFO's A and B and 400 memory channels which can also be programmed via a PC to radio interface cable via an interface program provided by Kenwood.(Uploading radio operating parameters and memory configuration is so much faster than manually punching in the data from the radio's keyboard and the configurations can be saved to a file on the PC.)

Thanks for the Demo. Am going to HRO in the morning for one and an extra battery case for AA batts.

Great little HT. As with all with HF they have wide selectivity but the TH-F6A is one of the best.

I like having 3 tx bands in one unit, but I've been reading more reports than I like about quality with these units... for being on the north side of $300 though seems like a good deal. Thankfully they still make these units.
