HF-One: HF-One MKII QRP HF Mobile

Thanks to Riku for sending me the link to the HF-One MKII 10 W HF radio. Details are limited, but here is what the listing says you get for your $300 (plus shipping):

- 100K--30MHz rx and tx in all band amateur radio band under 30MHz.
- output max:10W
- mode:ssb /CW
- with SDR
- AUTOKEY build in.
- audio REC build in.




Here is where it gets interesting for me. These images looks like the SDR could be controlled by your iPhone or iPad.





The radio looks very familiar to me. And I'm going to be surprised if there is an app for that - controlling the radio. I've e-mailed the seller to see what else I can find out.

  1. I'd love to hear what else you find out. If this turns out to be the real deal, I'd like to post it on my site: rigreference.com

    1. I'll let you know. I have not heard back yet, so that makes me wonder. Most of the sellers are quick to respond and ask if you want 100 or 1000 of them shipped to you. ;)

    2. I've added the rig to my site anyway. But, until I hear otherwise, with a big question mark: http://rigreference.com/en/rig/6026-HF_One_Mk_II_fake

      I hope someone proves me wrong

    1. I asked specifically about iPhone/iPad - if I get an answer I'll ask about the Android platform, too.

  3. The app in the screenshots looks an awful lot like "Pocket RxTx"

    1. I'll have to check that out. I'm not familiar with Pocket RxTx.

  4. I'm not sure if it's available for iOS, but I use it to run a Yaesu 817 from an Android tablet fairly often.

  5. I see that it is now not available. May I coin a new word? TIC
