xyzyx I received my callsign in early July, and I've been communicating with local repeaters and other stations. Recently, I'm interested in trying the 50MHz band, but my current handheld radios and the FTM-300DR I'm currently using are all operating in the UV band. Are there any recommended six-meter band entry-level radios that can also operate on FT8? Thank you all, thank you.😃
[已注销] The ones with six meters seem to be mostly shortwave radios, so you can just buy a shortwave radio like an IC-7300.
BH9FPK 八重州FT-8900,特易通TH-9800,这两款都是4波段，29/50/144/430,但是只有fm模式， 然后就是短波机了，ft-891,991，991a，ic-705，ic-7100国赫117，这几台都是hf+50+uv，多模式，
BI4PMQ xyzyx The core of FT8 lies in its ability to support SSB, while typical UV (ultra-violet) band operations usually rely on NFM (Narrow FM). Shortwave radios are generally all-mode capable, so FT8 doesn't face any competition.
xyzyx BI4PMQ Shortwave radios are not cheap, so I plan to get my B license first before considering a shortwave radio.
Yuluoxk If you just want to operate on 6 meters, consider buying a Box 6. It costs less than 400 yuan and allows you to use FT8 on 6 meters. However, since it's a homemade device, whether it can obtain a license depends on local regulations and requirements.
