I’m using the CE-19 with mine because I thought I might eventually buy the compatible amp as well but I’m leaning toward not needing to do that. When ordering, I sent a note asking for a shorter cable length, more compatible with portable work.
You may notice my Digimode-4 cables are shorter than the ebay version. We can all use help reducing the wire mess, and small businesses will certainly appreciate the order. I just wanted to get this device out there while it was stocking stuffer time. Winlink session using Xiegu X5105 with Vara HF The Figimode-4 is handling audio, CAT control and PTT, fast enough for a full bandwidth Vara session. Here is another short video demonstration with the x5105, using it in winlink session with Vara HF. Here is a short video showing FT8, JS8Call operation with the Digimode-4 on WSJT-X, with the Xiegu X5105 setup with FLRig for CAT control. Then a single USB cable going to your computer, or raspberry pi. It has CAT control and audio interface built into a very small enclosure. This new interface is called the DigiMode-4. XGGComms is a family owned small business, manufacturing lots of excellent audio interfaces, audio cables, and CAT control interfaces, for a variety of different rigs. The device is a combo Audio Interface and CAT control from XGGComms in the UK. There is definitely a market in getting rid of the cable mess, and here it is. In fact there was one item found, which I previously begged another popular audio interface specialist company to produce. Things to help make working portable easier. Recently I was browsing ebay to see if there were any new or interesting gadgets out. Really? It’s all quite ridiculous! CE-19 compared to XGGComms Digimode-4 When was the last time you took a look at the size of a Signalink USB compared to the radio it’s being used with? Or the Xiegu CE-19 Tentacle monster, which is supposed to make data and CAT control simpler.
For some reason audio interface and CAT control manufacturers have failed to grasp the concept of “portable communications”. Wires going every which way, getting tangled, getting lost, or simply just getting in the way. We are often discussing the “cable mess” on the channel. Today we turn our attention to audio interfaces and CAT control for the Xiegu G90 and X5105.
