What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Cons
Just a load of crackle on most channels and silence on the rest. The power ampage and voltage are available, but there is no plug in for this on the unit.
Highlights
Quality
Clear bright screen, easy software programming solid build.
The speaker is mounted on the underside of the radio and the audio quality is excellent.
Buttons on the front have multiple functions and only trial and error tells you what order to press them in.
Attempted fixes from online videos and supplier drivers but no luck.
Price
It is a great value for the money, with a compact size and easy-to-navigate menus.
All in all a very good radio at a very good price.
Inexpensive and small so easy to fit in the car.
Amazing value for the price but i had to watch a few youtube videos before i could understand some of the functions.
Shipping
The product arrived very quickly and was well packaged.
Great on receive to the point where i have sold two radios that don't perform as well.
Packaging/appearance
In the box you get the radio, mounting bracket with thumb turn screws, foam pads to stop the bracket rubbing on the radio body,... Read More
Competitiveness
Great quality, rugged construction- just as good … if not better than yaesu and icom competitors.
Some hams have drilled out the microphone hole but they report this makes no difference.

It’s a long process to program via the radio itself

Volume operation is a bit fiddly in that you have to hit one of the function keys and then adjust with control knob

By the 6 minute mark its down to outputting 6w although the on screen bar meter still shows full power
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Of course the only alternative approaches to this are a much bigger radio a short time out timer or a very loud internal fan neither of which are that great either
