Of all the videos I've seen on the FT-70DR, this is absolutely the best one I've seen because it is the clearest and most understandable without needing to pause, rewind or slow down the play speed. I've been watching every video I could find on this radio. I like that you are making separate videos for other topics with this radio, instead of trying to cover everything in one huge video because I can't sit through long videos. I'll be watching almost all of the videos you make on this radio because I just recently bought one and find it a bit mind-boggling compared to what I was used to decades ago (I have had an amateur radio license since 1961 but haven't been active in any aspect of ham radio for almost 40 years). The FT-70DR is like something out of Star Trek compared to the radio equipment I used the when I had an active radio station in the 1960s.
Same here. It's been 40+ years since I have been on the air. I needed a pastime so I dusted off my Novice license and started studying for Technician. It's like Rip VanWinkle waking from a long sleep. It all feels familiar, but so much has changed during these decades. My FT-70DR arrives tomorrow. Glad Gadget Talk is around to help. I'm funneling it into my head to be ready when I get the Tech license.
I too have returned to the fold after many years absence. This digital stuff is a wee bit mind boggling. I love using my old Kenwood TS-140S, whilst at the same time learning how to use the ft-991 and have just purchased an Icom 7300. Gonna keep me out of mischief for the foreseeable future.
Thank you GT for this video. I am currently studying for my Technical License and Already have the FT-70DR/DE YAESU Hand held. Nice little radio and I have heard good things about it. My Ignorance at this juncture is quite evident but with your help and help from others who are Far, Far more experienced, I am sure my endeavor will be worth while. I will be watching more of your videos to get a handle on some of this. It's all about "knowledge" of How to. At any rate, thanks again.
Best of luck!
My first digital radio was the Icom IC-2200H VHF with a UT-118 digital unit for D-Star, back in 2006. If I remember correctly, the UT-118 digital board cost as much as the radio and had a stunning FIVE digital memories!
These new radios (from all the manufacturers) are SO much nicer to use!
Thank you for a well made video in plain English. I'm taking my first tentative steps into digital voice modes so I purchased the Yaesu FT70d and it looks a great little radio. I'll see how it goes. Cheers.
The human factors team must have been high on something when they designed the 70DR. Orange on black print is probably the most difficult combination for the human eye to read. In addition, I have to use my thumbnails to press the keypad buttons. Who was it designed for, Munchkins? I too had to but the RT Systems programming software package because I could not get the data cable to hold a comm port on my computer. Who in the world doesn’t include a charging stand which cost Yaesu probably a buck, and they sell it as an accessory for $30. Finally, it has an anemic 1800maH battery, about the same size as a Baofeng UV-5R but they charge 3x the amount for an extra. I’ve been a DMR user for about 2 years and found only one active room on Fusion, which is America-Link, which I can access through TG 31656. To set up a Wires-X node cost about $1000, whereas you can establish your own TG on Brandmeister for nothing. Most digital users are accessing hotspots instead of repeaters. YSF is way too expensive for users around the worlds and that’s why DMR is now dominating digital radio. The good thing about the 70DR is the superheterodyne receiver as opposed to direct conversion and the air band which I use as a commercial UAV pilot. Those features were the only reason I didn’t return it. Yaesu makes great HF radios, but are off their game in the digital world.
You're awesome, great review!!
I just bought mine on 9/23 from Ham radio outlet. Hopefully when I'm 60 I can be humble and energetic like yourself.
Have fun!
nice production values ===== organized and articulate presentation
Much appreciated!
Oh yes you did a wonderful job introducing this radio it's a very nice radio and not terribly expensive thank you for sharing and happy New year your platform was fantastic
Many thanks!
Just got this radio. Thank you for showing how to add area repeaters!
Glad to help
*"rubber covered things...* great comprehensive description ;)
Glad I caused a smile. Cheers
Very good radio, I have sketchy coverage so switching to Diamond SRH77CA antenna was definite improvement, although longer and less convenient. Also, I have found when you want to change or add something to a channel memory it will switch to next available channel than the one you’re working on so you have to switch back manually before saving. That is a total PITA but once you get used to this behavior it’s easy to remedy. Great video thanks!
Thank you for video. Sorry that you mistakly mention that Motorola was the developer of DMR. It was developed by the Europeans just like P25, it's an open source, but Motorola just copies their protocol and calls it Mototrbo.
Excellent presentation very helpful information
Thank you for this easy-to-understand, and clear video!
Thanks for such a clear, well thought out presentation. Have subscribed to you
Excellent video! I am wanting to get started in digital amateur radio, but am still quite a bit confused; this really helped me understand a lot more about my interest in purchasing this model digital Yaesu radio. Thanks again! Mark W5HSJ. Corpus Christi, TX
Glad it was helpful!
Get a spare battery trust me lol. Great video sir
Thanks for the tip.
Great Video Tx !!!!!!!. Buying the same - first Ham .
Cool
Great video. After watching, I intend to buy this very same radio. Thanks!
Good choice!
Itty Bitty Committee !!
Thanks!
Great vidio. But after you turned the radio on, I didn't understand ANYTHING you said. Maybe some day they will invent a ham radio that you just turn on and talk
Thsts my kind of ham radio.
日本製のアマチュア無線機を紹介していただきありがとうございます。
これからも、日本製品をよろしく。昔ハムをやってました。コールはJH1JGQでした。

Very good manners! Subscribed.
Thanks and welcome
Great video! You have an outstanding teaching ability, making it easy to learn without getting lost in the process. Thank you! I am still debating between the FT-60 (analog) and the FT-70 for my first “real” dual band HT. I am hearing that battery life is better on the FT-60, which may be a concern for some. Question: Can you charge a spare battery by itself in the charging cradle?
Yes. The battery can charge alone in the cradle.
The cradle also acts as a fast charger. Charging the battery without it takes forever.
I can and do on my Yaesu VX 6R charging cradle
And you can run it also without battery, plugged in.
My local repeater changed its CTTS , Now I know you have to rewrite the repeater new in oder to save new CTTS
Hope to see your video on how to program the ft70dr
A p.s. to my previous comment: I won't be watching the video on CHIRP for the FT-70DR because I bought a copy of RT Systems programming software for the FT-70DR. I hope you will take a look at that software and make a video on using it with the FT-70. Specifically, I'd like to see a video on the best source(s) of repeater information. RT Systems will load repeater listings into the FT-70DR but I haven't tried it yet and I have already learned that the listings are not necessarily very accurate/updated.
RT Systems software is good if you have the funds. This video was about using free or nearly free alternatives. I use an RT Systems program on another radio I have. Watch the Chirp video anyway. There is a section on using external sources to input repeaters. I believe the RT Systems software is similar enough that you'll find it helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@GadgetTalk4U I probably will watch it, during one of my daily indoor rowing sessions when I have to row boringly slow and need something to watch to break the boredom. You do give good presentations. Changing subject to the FT-70DR - the first time I used it on a local Fusion repeater, the guy who answered me turned out to be using an FT-70 and then a few minutes later another guy called me and he was also using an FT-70. All three of us had bought them very recently so that small sampling indicates it is very popular and your videos relating to it should be likewise popular. On yet another subject: If you ever feel like having a video on using / covering the "Nifty! Mini-Manual" for the FT-70, that would be very interesting. Though it tries to clarify things, I'm still not clarified on some of what it covers. A video would be a lot clearer.
A great presentation! Why would anyone bother with DMR., while Fusion is so much easier to use?
I have the FTM 3200D,, now I'll buy one of these to go with it.
Thanks for watching.
Because some of us come from the scanner crowd and like to use our radios to listen to businesses or government stuff.
That's why some get DMR radios.
If the battery would no longer charge. Could you just used normal battery's from a supermarket? I have heard of people doing this with a Yaesu ft60 hand held. thank you from Ross Stokes
Nice video... I also like you RC video.. still have the Dornier Do27?
Yes. Flew it a couple weeks ago. Thanks for commenting.
Can someone tell me why when I press the f key then the ams key my ft70 will not connect to the hotspot as shown in some of these videos
so far I know how to turn it on. I know how to take off and put on the battery. watching this vid , I still don't know how to get channels. wish I could send it to a company and have them do it for me. I'm a tech. and I don't know a damn thing.
Hi there, thanks for an excellent video on the Yaesu FT70D. I'm going to upgrade shortly from the ubiquitous UV-5R. As a new ham (as of 1st March) I bought it as a teaching tool and for practice. Two radios are on my shopping list. The Anytone 878 and the Yaesu FT70DR. Here in the UK both radios are about the same price, but are in a slightly different position. The Yaesu being an "entry level" model in their range vs the 878 being almost a premium radio for Chinese DMR. I'm drawn to the quality of the Yaesu and my local repeater supports both DMR and C4FM. As I'll likely be using analogue FM most of the time what is your opinion on the sound quality of both systems in this mode? The Yaesu is likely to be a keeper but first I need to research which Rooms vs Talkgroups are better subscribed. Thanks. 73s Garry M7PGB
Both the Anytone and FT 70D sound good over their respective systems. Both seem to have good build quality. You're right about one being entry level and the other premium. There is a lot of chatter on Facebook groups and in talkgroups and rooms about signals that are bridged in from other systems. Most of the comments aren't good. If you have the capability to listen in on rooms or talkgroups or you find your friends tend to prefer one or the other, I'd go with that digital mode. Call me crazy but I seem to sense a difference in the traffic on DMR and C4FM. If you do, too, pick the one you prefer. Thanks for watching and commenting.
How to hook up this radio to motorola walkie talkie with their channel 10-4?
Sorry, I don't understand the question.
@@GadgetTalk4U at my work, everyone uses a motorola walkie-talkie on channel 10, subchannel 4, I have baofeng and yaesu, and I would like to chat with them because motorola is too big and heavy, how can I do that
Motorola radios used commercially use a variety of frequency bands. Your company has grouped them into channels for easy identification. To use another radio not supplied by your company you'd need to know the frequency assigned to channel 10 and what they mean by subchannel. My guess is a CTCSS or DCS tone but it could mean something else. You really need to chat with your company's radio guy or gal. Good luck.
Thank you for this video. I am wanting to know How one programs the Radio ID? Not the call sign but Radio ID. I am getting conflicting comments. Thank you for any info you can give. This is KD9QAN,,Joe.
It's in the menu.
What do you think about the yaesu ft4x
WHAT KEY IS CODE?
I don't understand the question.
Lithium ion battery.
Oh my, 666 likes!
Doesn't have 220, so ...meh.....
220 is problematic. Only US hams have privileges in that area (as I understand it), so it's hard to find 220 or tri band rigs from the big names.
