    This is indeed the "missing manual"....er I mean the "missing video manual". Professional, succinct and excellent video. Tnx Bob

    Yeah! No kidding. The EleCraft manual is seriously bad. I recommend that this be put into a text/book with appropriate photos or drawings. I was (and may yet still be) on the verge of sending it back for a refund. That or sell it to someone who thinks it's the best radio in the universe. Planned on taking it to Europe this autumn. I'll take the X5105 instead. 73 de W8IJN

    Yes Finally a great video on the KH1. Thousand thanks. This is standard by which all instructional videos should be made. Indexing, great videography and audio. Great methodical instruction. The best! If you could do a series on the KX2, I would be all set. Keep them coming. Greatly appreciated.

    I found this video extremely helpful. I would also greatly appreciate you doing a deeper dive on how to adjust and fine tune the factory settings as sometimes these settings are accidentally moved.

    Thanks Daren, That really depends on which factory settings you are referring to. Some require special equipment to properly adjust. All of the "Danger Zone" settings require the user to unlock them so they shouldn't be accidentally changed. That being said, if there is something in particular you would like to see, I will look into it. 73 Bob

    A video of enabling and using KH1 pan-adaptor would be useful.

    I can do that. Just to set expectations, Not really a panadapter. It scans through a series of frequencies and shows a relative signal strength at the time it scanned. Not particularly useful in my opinion.
