Video Rating: 4 / 5
CX4BW in Montevideo, Uraguay in SSB DX QSOs with stations in North America during an opening on the 15 Meters Ham Radio band. CX4BW was checking propagation on 15 Meters in preparation for the 2010 CQWW SSB contest. These DX QSOs were recorded at ham radio station WE5I with a Yaesu FT-950 transceiver and a Hustler 4BTV vertical antenna. The distance from WE5I to CX4BW is approximately 5550 miles.
What a nice radio,I looked it up to see it’s selling for 1.400$ a bit pricy for me.Concidering the 897d.Are you using the antenna that you mounted on the ground and ran radial wires around it?
Thank you for your comment. I saved for a while to get the FT-950 and I have been well rewarded for my patience. It is a truly outstanding radio, and I believe it is the best rig available under $2000. As for the antenna, yes the antennna in use during the recording is the Hustler 4BTV. Note the S8/QSB signal from Uruguay to my S/E, and the S9+5dB signal from Vancouver to my N/W. 73 de we5i
Nice rig, and a good QSO. I also worked CX4BW during October on 15 meters.
Vancouver BC to Uraguay!? I have so much to learn! You guys communicate very well with each other. I’m studying to get my Technician license, and this just motivated me a lot 🙂
Beautiful video…
Just ordered the FT-950, a fine radio. 73 Mike M0SAZ.

Randy, my dad (kv7L)uses a ts 2000 and im considering purchasing the same rig ,how do you like yours?
Hello, Randy!
I like your videos very much, and I would like to ask you if the TS-2000 has DSP in TX/RX or only in RX mode.
Sorry for the awful english, OK?
Thank you very much for your reply.
Yes, in fact, the DSP is used for all signal processing. In transmit, you have control over the EQ and bandwidth.
Tremendous video Randy,
