Thank you for choosing to download the Ham Radio two point zero audio podcast rip.
This is the audio taken out of a video or a livestream I did
recently. You can catch all my videos on YouTube Ham Radio two point zero
and catch us live every Sunday night at seven pm Central Standard Time for a
different topic each week. Thank you for the support, and thank you for
being a member of the community. In Tellotron is a brand new line of
items. It's gonna be a very robust and very large number of items from
Gigabarts. They are commonly used items made for the budget Ham radio operator in
mind. We're going to take a look at a few of them today.
Huge shout out to Gigabarts. They sent me a box of these things.
I'm gonna show these two you here in a second, but always remember you
can save a five percent discount on everything in Tellotron with the coupon code of
KC five HWB. They're being added to my page by five percent off page
that is on the Gigapart's website. Link to that will be in the description
below. When I was at their grand opening in March of twenty twenty four,
they told me they had sixty new skews, so new items basically to
add to their Intellotron line. Those are not on the website at the time
of this recording, but you can rest assured that you're going to see more
and more videos about the intellotron products from Gigabarts as time goes on. So
if I pull up their website here, you can see right here that they
have I don't know, two two, three, maybe twenty or twenty or
thirty items in the stockpile right now. We've got SWR and power meters.
We've got the Nixy clock that's always fun. We've got some lightning arrests.
This stainless steel whip is pretty cool. I've got that. We've got a
dummy load, a speaker, and a few other things. So just remember
it. Like if I go over here to my page, here's my page
on the Gigapart's website here, and since they were added last after all this
other stuff, they're gonna be on the back of the last page. So
there you go. Right there, there's all the Intelletron stuff on my page.
Where you can save a five percent discount with the coupon code of KC
five HWB. So let's take some stuff out of the box. Here.
They sent me a whole box of this stuff, and I just wanted to
take the time to show it to you guys. So that's always pretty cool.
Right there, Ham Radio clocks. This is a twenty four hour clock
right here. You can see twelve o'clock is down here at the bottom,
twenty four is up at the top. It's got the numbers fifteen twenty twenty
five minutes after the hour. It says Maiden China right there. I think
I'd probably put one of my Ham Radio two point oho stickers over that.
But you know, here's another clock, extra large digital led clock. These
are cool. So if you've got different areas where to hang a clock in
your shack, your home, then this one will tell you the Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday through there on the side,
all the way through Sunday. The temperature outside that right there is I'm not
sure what that Oh month and day okay, MD, I'm thinking, I'm
thinking minute and what is it? What's d I was like, oh,
month and day, July twenty seventh. There, obviously that's the time.
That's the temperature outside lots of cool stuff on that clock there. This is
cool because these are very similar to the MFJ speaker that I have probably five
of those MFJ speakers in my truck for the various radios in my truck.
So this one I'm looking very forward to using. I'm gonna mount this in
my truck and see if there's any difference between it and the four or five
MFJ speakers I have in truck. But these are some of the greatest mobile
speakers. Assuming that this is like the MFJ, I'll put it that way
prefaces, because I haven't hooked this up yet. The MFJ speakers are some
of the greatest mobile speakers out there because they sound like the bigger Motorola speakers,
but they're smaller. But they don't sound as cruddy as those big mouth
speakers. Those little big mouth speakers that you buy at truck stops. Those
sound like crap. They don't have any lower end on them at all.
They're all treble and no base, and they just kind of sound like crud.
These sound really good. Here is the WM one thousand D digital SWR
and power meter. It looks like that. That's very similar to the MFJ
meter that I have in so many of my videos where I'm doing power tests
on hts and mobile radios. This is another one here, one O one
O D, ten ten D. This is the one thousand and one D
the ten ten D. I mean they look the same on the outside.
Well, they look the same on the outside. Both of them do HF
on one point six to sixty mega hurts and then one one hundred and twenty
five to five hundred and twenty five megahertz frequency range on both of those the
same, both with a two year warranty. The screens look the same on
them. I can't tell what the difference is on that. I don't have
any idea. I guess I could open them front. So there's the back
of the one thousand and one looks the same to me. Okay, this
one has a The one thousand and one has a switch. This one doesn't
have a switch. So this one, I assume you have a switch that
turns the light off and on. Because this is a twelve DC here,
it comes with a power cable I've got very similar to my MFJ meter.
I've got that hooked up to power poles it's just direct to W O volt.
Nothing special in that power cable there. So I guess this one you
can turn it off and on, and this one is just on all the
time. As soon as you plug it up, it turns on. And
the one that has the switch, the one thousand one the lower number for
whatever reason, because you would think that's the older one, but I guess
not one thousand and one one zero zero one. That's the one with the
switch. And then the ten ten D this one over here on the left,
that's the one that does not have the switch. Okay, these manuals
that look like they're the same because they list the one thousand and one D,
the one thousand and five D, and the one thousand or the ten
ten D, So the manuals are the same in each of those. All
right, So these probably at least one of these is going to go in
a mystery box because I don't need it, because I've got very similar to
the MFJA meter, and I've already got one of those, so I don't
need two more of these. Here is a one thousand and two to a
what meter? Now, this is similar to my older MFJ meter that I
had and I still have that, although I haven't used it in a long
long time because it's an analog dial rather than a digital dial. But if
you like that better, nothing wrong with that. It's got three power level
settings on it right there, it's got a forward to reverse, an SWR
set, and an SWR so a little bit more functionality on that one right
there. That's the one thousand and two Alpha. Okay, here's the one
thousand and five D, so they gave me one of each. One.
Power is twelve hundred watts on this one, and it is it looks like
it's HF only. Yeah, it looks like it's HF only. Frequency is
one point six to sixty megahurtz. It doesn't include the one twenty five to
five twenty five megahurts that the other ones did. And it handles a larger
amount of power twelve hundred watts this other one. Right here's the one thousand
and one, and here's the ten ten, and these each handle two hundred
watts, and then this one had handles twelve hundred wats. So this is
the bad boy, obviously. If you want to test out your kPa five
hundred or your Ameritron eight hundred one thousand wat amplifier on HF that's the one
to have. Here's the add another clock, this one large digital led clock
with remote. Okay, then, so this one's got a little more on
it. It tells you the month, date, the day like Thursday says
Thursday, the temperature outside. It's a different configuration. Actually, I guess
that's the same amount of information on the screen there, but it's more rectangular
than it is long and skinny, so or more square than long and skinny
rectangular. So there you go right there. And this one has a remote.
I don't know what you would use the remote for. Maybe it has
a timer on it or an alarm clock of some sort. Here's a big
clock right here in tell Atron. This is the They have a number c
K for clock. I guess zero, one, five to three. This
one's larger in size than that first one we looked at. Here's the first
one we looked at, so you can see how much larger that is.
I think I like this one better, really. I mean, you know,
if you're gonna hang it high up on the wall and put it in
a room, that's a larger room that you're gonna see it from farther away
than one. That's pretty cool. I guess this one is radio controlled,
so all it needs is power and it'll set itself by radio signal. So
you've got two options for analog looking clocks. There. These are the last
four items in the box they sent. We've got a lightning arrestor for fifty
ohms right here. This is the LA eleven oh one and Peden's's fifty omes.
Frequency range is DC to one thousand megahertz. Discharge voltage is one thousand
volt direct current. That one right there, and then this one here is
the eleven oh five. It is I don't know. It looks about the
same. You can't really tell what the difference between eleven oh one and eleven
oh five is at first glance. See if we can open that ups that
eleven oh one eleven oh five, Both of them are oh okay, there
we go, so it doesn't say it on the outside. So the eleven
on one is rated for four hundred watts pep and the eleven oh five is
rated for fifteen hundred watts pep right there, So the different ratings for different
different type of arrestors. If all you're using is like your one hundred two
hundred watt radio no amplifier, then the eleven oh one would be plenty for
you. Or if you're running multiple HF rigs one and one hundred wats and
one with an amplifier, you can use one of each. There you go,
there's a duplexer there. Five hundred watts on one point thirty five mega
hurts, three hundred watts on fifty to five hundred and forty mega hurts,
so two thirty nine connections. So this would be great if you wanted to
hook two radios into one antenna, if you had, say, hey,
well, on this side right here, it goes from one hundred and sixty
meters one point eight megahurts up to two twenty five megaherts, and then this
one is basically just UHF for you and I just be UHF. So if
you had to say a UHF only radio and or a two twenty radio,
and you wanted to put them on the same antenna something like that, you
could use it that way. I've got to some of your older radios that
were modular might have different boards inside of them for different bands, so you
can use that to go to one intenna as well, so those have been
around a while. I do have one of those on my FT eight forty
seven yazuo. It's not the Intelletron brand obviously, but I do have a
duplexer on that. And the last thing is the dummy load, the DL
fifteen oh one. This thing is great DC to five hundred megahertz sot'll handle
all the way through for forty fifteen watt average one thousand or one hundred watt
peak. This is great if you want to run, if you want to
do some testing, some power testing on the back of your SWR or back
of your power meter, but you don't want to hook the power meter to
like an external antenna or some other kind of intenna in your hamshack. This
is great for that. It's got a SO two thirty nine connector on it
right there, so good for doing power testing of radios and whatnot in the
hamshack. So that's the current line. That's the current line of Intellotron stuff.
Those were the first scues. Like I said, they have sixty more
skews. I know, they have hamsticks, they have mag mounts, they
have few other antennas. They actually did send me that seventeen foot stainless steel
whip, very similar to the MFJ, the Chameleon antenna, and the Alpha
Antenna's whip so far the best one out of all four of those that i've
I haven't tested the Atellidron one yet, but out of MFJ, Chameleon and
Alpha Antenna's, I like the Alpha Intenna's one the best. It's also a
little bit longer. It's like nineteen feet instead of seventeen feet. I think
nineteen or twenty one feet in stead of seventeen feet something like that. But
in Teletron's a really cool line of products, like I said they were on.
Steve was on the ham Radio Happy Hour a couple months ago and he's
like, Teletron is tools needed for the average ham radio operator that don't break
the bank. So they're like a they're like a budget friendly version of different
hamm radio tools, options, meters, all kinds of good stuff. Keep
