10W doesn't make any difference. You should look more into external battery (g90) vs internal (x6100). A bit better ATU on g90 (10:1) vs weaker on x6100 (5:1). And mature firmware on g90 vs jus ok on x6100 (but with ability to experiment, and launching custom ones). Also x6100 has a tendency to overload vs g90 is much less sensitive to overloading (still can happen tho). So if you have strong AM stations nearby some external filters may be necesarry for x6100. Also 6M band on x6100. And last and not least price difference ;) In short: G90 - great battle tested HF rig that stood the test of time and is well regarded by the community. X6100 - cool rig with great potential (since it's just a linux box), perfect for experimenting and as QRP shack in a box. 73! P.S. If you're interested in digital modes x6100 has internal sound card built in, so it's much less hassle to set it up vs G90. Something worth considering as well...

The g90 doesn’t have fm the g90 radio I had was just to reflash the firmware to get the radio back up and running. The g90 does 20w I think . Didn’t really get long enough time with the radio to have a long play with it

@@tadekboruta328 Great info, thank-you!

I'm getting the x6100, for many reasons, mostly because I've had all the yaesu,s icons etc..been there, done that, the G90 looks fine, but 10 Wats won't make much difference really, the much bigger screen on the X6100 is far more important to me.. and it's lighter weight, and slimmer etc..and has an internal battery..its a no brainer really..

@@livelongandprosper70 I think you plug an amp into the g90 and get even more than 20 watts. Someone please verify or correct me. Thanks.

The wfview is on the official firmware of the radio I think it’s 1.17
