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.

Overall, it's an excellent entry-level choice for amateur radio enthusiasts.

Weekly Report

Top Amateur Radio Websites – Issue 2622

This week, we're looking at some interesting developments for those pushing the boundaries of weak signal work, particularly on the digital modes. There's also a practical guide for constructing a compact magnetic loop, something many portable operators or those with limited space often consider. We'll also touch on a couple of resources that visualize propagation in near real-time, which can be invaluable for understanding current band conditions, whether you're chasing DX or planning a SOTA activation. Finally, a tool for monitoring HF beacons offers another perspective on propagation, especially useful for those interested in long-haul paths below 14 MHz. It’s a mix of build projects and software utilities that can genuinely enhance your operating experience.
