Hi Neil. I have this radio and hack the firmware so the display now displays the SWR when transmitting ( and looks pretty ). For the money, you cant beat it. My daily carry cos if I drop it - I would just by another ! ( If I dropped my Yaesu FT5D - I would probably cry 🤪 )
Hello Jon, Yes it is a canny radio, i seem to take the H3 out a bit more although i haven’t done a lot with any lately. The FT5D looks incredible, maybe one day.
It’s a spot on little radio Andy with a healthy output, the H3 is also a belter with a few more features and ultra portable but you loose the bigger power.
Thank you so very much. New technician and yes it was transmitting repeatedly
@@TLW896 Excellent and well done on your new technician license.

Excellent video, thanks!!! Has anyone done recent tests on harmonics/spurious?? Most reviews on these H8 models are 10 months old......
Thanks…I should really do a video with the H3 & H8 testing harmonics, maybe one for the future.
Nice radio I thnk I might order one

@@gtretroworld My radio is on it's way mate
@@andymann1231 Excellent stuff Andy
Thank you. I subscribed to your channel but found no merch.
@@TLW896 Thanks for subscribing..I am too small a channel to really offer merch.
Should Vox be OFF to prevent unwanted transmitting? Thank you for your help.
@@TLW896 Unless you want to use hands free turn it off or every noise will send it into TX.
Mine keeps going into transmit mode but I am not pushing the PTT. Do you know how to fix this?
@@TLW896 First of all check Vox isn’t enabled and if all fails try and reset it.
