Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality


The sound quality is better than the $400+ radios the company provides, and the transmitting power is better.


I’m with the fire dept, and i dispatch.

Competitiveness


I would recommend it to any one who wants to explore the vhf and uhf portions of the amature radio spectrum without spending a fortune.


Transmitting on frequencies you are not licensed for can cost many times the cost of the radio.
