Xiegu G90 CAT (Omnirig) informations

Post by DF5WW »

Have buyed a new small transceiver called Xiegu G90. It´s a nice little rig from China and
it has all amateur bands included between 1.8 and 30 MHz. Have setted it up to day to work
togehter with Omnirig. Wasn´t a big problem. I connected the USB Cable to the PC and the
driver was installed by Windows 10 automaticly. I connected the transceiver and i checked
the Windows device manager for the new virtual COM port (in my case it was COM10). Now
i setted up Omnirig like you can see in the attached screenshot.

Try out and be happy with a Xiegu G90 conneted to Log4OM (V1 and V2) .....

For digital modes you need a seperate interface. I have ordered mine in the U.K. via eBay.
Not tested yet but i will provide more informations about that when it´s arrived and tested.

Hi Juergen ,

Thanks for the information. I waiting for my G90 in the next days. This information will save me searching. I'm a new Log4OM 2 user, and I really enjoy it so far. For digital mode integration, I am planning to make one by myself. I really don't like the ugly interface Xiegu are selling... :D :D :D Naahhh... this is ok... many people will enjoy there interface... :D

Looking forward to operate the G90.
