9 years later, this video finds me. Thank you :)
Old guy just new to HAM Great job explaining the TYT TH 9800 I'll watch this 40 times and something might stick. KM6TBX
Good luck. I should probably re-do this video and add some steps to it, but the steps listed here are still 100% valid.
With the CHIRP software is extremely easy. It is like filling a spreadsheet.
Same here om
Does the 9800D have a digital mode? What does the PLUS indicate?
@@k2iccI only have an ipad. Does CHIRP work on IOS?
I recently won a TH7800 in a raffle and have been looking for explanations on using it.
Your quad is apparently almost identical to my radio so thanks for being an 'elmer' for me.
73
Yes they're very similar. I made a video about the 7800 also, which was released a couple of years after the 9800
After watching you with the TYT's I purchased a TH-7800 for my mobile and and a TH-9800 for my base. I love these radios for the price and your videos make everything so easy to work.
A modicum off subject. But today, the 20th of February 2023, I heard some amazing long distance communications on 52.525Mhz, 52.555Mhz, and 53Mhz! I was programming one for a local radio club and overhead some incredibly long communications on just a 136 centimetre piece of wire hanging from the roof. I was very tempted to answer back. However, no licence means I can not touch the magic button. I was delighted to hear the very long distance communication, northern Saskatchewan to Central California, on FM!
I have the Tyt th-9800 as my base i picked it up in 2014 when i got my license. and haven't had any problems with at all works great. I liked it so much i just bought a Th-7800 for my truck. they are great radios. great video KK4ZNU
With intelligence, courtesy, and common sense, they may also be used for 49Mhz, PEG, MURS (if your nation has it), PMR446, LPR433, GMRS, CRCT FM CB, UK81 CB, and other public, licence free services. If you have licences for other services, such as axillary radio, or volunteer fire brigade, you may still use this radio as well. However, some draconian nations demand a radio band only be accessed with radios specifically designed for that band only. However, it is impossible to tell which radio is not certified on a band if you use the band respectfully, with courtesy, intelligence, and common sense. I have set up many of these radios for just hobbiests all the way up to amateur radio operators that want extra radio bands outside of just amateur radio. Anybody using this radio on amateur bands without a licence will be caught, without acception. However, anybody using this radio on licence free bands will likely never be caught if done correctly. I am toying with getting one myself.
I'm a radio ham but only own a Baofeng UV-5r right now. Here in the UK, 2m and 70cm is busstling with activity right up until about midnight or 1am, so I'm thinking about this radio as an upgrade to my current setup. I like that it goes on 446mhz as well, since 446.000 to 446.200 is a licence free band here in the UK like GMRS or FRS is for America. I like the extra bands like 10m and 6m, and I may give them a go at some point too.
Thank you for this! I have been trying to set my radio up to try for the ISS. Finally got it, I think. Hopefully I can get through the pileup now and get a contact.
Just came here to give my best wishes on the 7th anniversary of your channel. Thanks for all the great content Jason! Here's to many more years to come!
I just got this radio finally and this video helped me get right to the point
Awesome, thanks for commenting.
Excellent video presentation! I will have t review this again when my TH-9800 arrives.
Lots of years after you posted, but just blew my mind!!! Thanks for posting!!
By far the best video I have seen on how to program my TYT TH-9800. Well done!
And in 2019 its still the best.
10 years later in 2024" and still the best video out here LOL great job bud thank you. i watch you all the time but this video didn't see your face but i knew the voice lol. i usually watch at home on the big screen TV but im at work now on my PC tring to program my new TYT9800 radio thnx for u expertise and tricks brother.
Thank You. Perfect, I mean perfect. Best explanation on any radio I’ve watched. I wish you could do one one on the FT3D. None I’ve found are half clear as yours on many radios, to the point and complete. I just subbed your channel. May God Bless.
I'll look at the FT3D. I have plans to make more of these types of videos for other models too.
Thanks man. I just got one and your video was a great help in programming new random channels manually after using a programming system to load up the memory with 45 other channels. You made it very clear.
Primer Quad band con recepción y transmisión ampliada desde 26 a 33Mhz para banda de CB en FM y posibibilidad de recepción en AM, además de tener un doble banda full-dúplex V/U, para poder utilizarlo con licencia.
Posibilidad de recepción en banda aérea en AM, que tomen nota los de Yaesu...
Thank you for this video. I just got the th 7800 and I admit I'm not very good with the radio stuff but this helped me alot. It took me awhile to get the program to run on windows 10 and I loaded all my stuff on the radio and I had nothing. Well you gave me the answer I needed. Again thank you
Thanks so much . I just programed my second 7800 using this video . The first one had low power issues and this one is not much better !
Thanks for watching
What is a 7800?
I ordered one of these from AliExpress because it was advertised to do 70cm/2M/6M/10M but got burned. It only does 70cm/2M (tried both sides of the radio) ... to add to my pain, it appears used and the data connection does not work. I programmed all of my repeaters (100+) and simplex frequencies by hand. Your video was a huge help there. Thank you!! I also really like those A,B,C,D,E,F presets. Excellent for the ISS and other satellites to start on the main TX/RX frequencies and then chase the doppler with the nobs. I wish I could get the data connection working to see if 6M/10M is disabled via software. Might look for someone locally with a known good cable. Anyway thanks again for making this video. Would mostly be a TYT branded paperweight for me otherwise 😆
I've never seen one that didn't have 10/6 meters
@@HamRadio2 It's definitely odd. If I cycle through the left side of the radio in VFO, it's 144/350/440Mhz and right side of the radio is 144/440Mhz. If I enter 029.600 manually for example it just resets to whatever frequency I'm on. Only thing I can think of is if I can get the data connection to work that there might be options in the software to enable/disable bands and maybe I just need to re-enable. Though there's the potential those were disabled to "refurbish" (maybe they weren't working correctly) The radio did appear used (wear marks where the bracket would be installed) AliExpress is always a gamble 🤷♂
Sounds like you got a TH-7800, not a TH-9800
@@HamRadio2 you might be onto something there! The radio does have the TH-9800 logo as well and Product/SN sticker, but I imagine fakes do happen. Appreciate the insight and thanks again for recording this programming tutorial.
I'm new to the hobby and was looking for a radio I could expand with. Can't see in buying two radios. My Instructor KA2NXY has the Yaesu radio but I don't have the funds. And the TYT TH_9800 seems like it would give the most bang for the buck.

Hey Jason, thought i'd check out your first attempt. Congratulations on all you have achieved.
A great vid starter for new owners or seasoned owners of this rig. Whether possessing a Master's Degree in electrical engineering... or not.
I've just bought one of these, so this will be very useful thank-you.
Hope you enjoy it!
The brand name snobs, that belittle everyone if they did not waste $1200 on a radio, hate these radios. However, they have the exact same final Mitsubishi MOSFETS, programming, and footprint size. I have set up many of these radios for various uses and owners. I even use the Yaesu owner's manual. The local volunteer fire brigade loves this radio. Several of their tanker trucks have this radio. They can communicate with the province fire brigade and also with local constable stations. They no longer needs to be two or there radios in one truck. Being this is a volunteer brigade, their budget is extremely small. The TYT-TH9800 plus is affordable enough to have five spares ready for deployment at all times with some operational in several trucks.
Your videos have come a long way 😂
Yes
Thank you for going in-depth with this radio! By far the best demonstration I’ve seen. I am definitely set on getting this radio as a mobile set-up after watching!
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it!
Geezz.... 30 years ago I was a kid having fun with 27mhz. I was just about to put and old rci2950 back into my camper. Why bother when I can get one of these for a few hundred bucks... Goodness how electronics has advanced.
No kidding
You did a great job explaining this video but unfortunately I’m still having trouble. I’m trying to hook my CB up so I can hear truckers call in accidents or hear cal trans or law enforcement mention road closures. Is there any way you can help me out with setting this TYT up please? I would more then appreciate it
Great video. Thank you, this really explained a lot. I am trying to monitor to airband frequencies and side a (left display) was no problem but side b skips over the range and won’t let me turn on “AM”. Is that normal? Thank you for any advice.
Glad it was helpful!
Only side A works for AM frequencies
Love the Kenwood 741 you're using as a prop. I have one of these but the buttons are falling out. They just kind of friction fit in the panel and all the foam that holds them in has decayed over the years of sitting in a HOT Texas car.
+David Dennis it is a great radio. Mine had the same issue, so I sent it over to Cliff at AVVID for repair. - avvid.com/ - he is a bit crotchety over email, but he is an authorized Kenwood repairman and does excellent work. My TM741A looks and works like brand new. And it is a triband, I have the 220MHz module in it.
+Ham Radio 2.0 Thanks for the repair advice. I've had it as a project on my list for over a year, so I may just go ahead and contact Cliff about getting this repaired. Thanks for the helpful advice. Mine too is a TriBand. Only I have 10m FM as the third band in mine.
Thank you for posting this. I sure with these had auto offset adjustments.
Glad it helped
I had one and it lasted about a year and a half ago the receiver quit working on all bands.I contacted many repair shops across America and I found NOBODY who would touch it for even an attempt at a repair.I contacted several dealers who sell them and none of them could offer me any leads for a repair short of returning it to China which would require me paying shipping both ways and the repair costs.I could have purchased another one for less money so I sold it for parts to a Military Man in Texas who wanted to make an attempt at it.I have not heard back from him now in 4 or 5 months so I guess he has not made any progress.I had some fun with it in my mobile during band openings on both Ten and Six meters with the Diamond Quad Band mobile antenna while it lasted.I would NOT ever buy another one since nobody will repair them.I’ll stick with my ICOM gear and know it’s repairable in America.👍🎙
Did you tune your antennas properly? If not that can reduce the life of your transceiver.
@@discofishing I use an antenna analyzer to tune my antenna’s for every antenna and every band.I’m not an Idiot.I have only been tuning antenna’s since the 60’s how about you?
very helpful same set up as Tyt TH 7800
This radio had a design flaw with over-voltage of the CMX-138 audio chips. Do you know if manufacturer fixed this issue in the latest revision of this radio?
I wanna know too
Great video. Question, how to lock after everything is programmed? To avoids accidentally touch and mess up the setting. Thanks
I think there is a keypad lock for the screen, but the way I like to do it is read the radio from a computer and save a codeplug file that can later be loaded back into the radio.
Awesome video. Very helpful
Excellent video that really helped. Thank you much.
Thanks for watching
Since Yasue has a hate / love relationship with CHIRP, can the TH-9800 being a Yaesu clone, be safely programmed with CHIRP without risk of bricking the radio?
This isn't really a Yaesu clone. There are small but noticable differences. I wouldn't worry about chirp not working with Yaesu, as it pertains to this radio
i had to come back to this video to finally learn how to use it al least on the repeater functions i do have a question i went to the repeater book and in the tone in and out when you see like 127.3 on in and out how would you set that on out on radio? on the out part
I am getting my 9800 plus dusted off and want to start using it again. But I need to find another ‘head unit- mount bracket’. No-one seems to have them for sale. Is there an alternative you could suggest for this?
Not that I know of
@@HamRadio2 thanks for quick reply. Subbed.
Saludos desde Puerto Rico👍👍
You commented on enc, enc.dec, etc. but you never really mentioned how to set the decode tone if it's a different freq than the encode. I can't figure that out.
I'm pretty sure this radio doesn't have that capability
Hello. I know this an older thread. Recently purchased TH 7900. Don't have access to a computer or laptop, just this Amazon fire tablet I am writing on here, so I have been trying to manually program repeater to no avail. Think I have been doing this correctly but when I key up to repeater, I get an ERROR message. Simplex works just fine though.
Just fixed it. I believe I was entering encode & decode when only encode was needed. Regardless, I am now able to tx and recieve on repeaters.
Hello
Thank you for the nice video about the VHF/UHF part of this TYT TH-9800 quad band radio but it would have good to at lest have an antenna hooked up to it so we could hear it working.
But also what about the 29/50 meters segments of that radio which we seen very little of what it can do let alone hearing nothing of its audio quality let alone also not hearing any ting as to what antenna/antennas would be best to use for this quad band radio both in the HOME base setup and indeed in the mobile especially if you are looking to perhaps buying one of these radios.
Let alone as to what additional cost you would be looking at in the antenna range let alone any other things you would need like a switch box for changing over the antenna or an antenna range seeing how there are not two many quad band mobile antennas around for that radio setup let alone for its home base setup at lest in the vertical range that would suite it either looking at what’s available or unavailable as that radio has just has a single OS232 socket on the back.
Thank you again and who knows I many work you some time at lest on 10 meters.

Not well prepared for this video; but some nuggets of info,
This was literally my first video I ever put on TH-cam
I followed the steps in your video as well as using the manual. For some reason when I hit the PTT there is no transmission. Although once I let off the PTT it makes a little noise. I have another (working) radio set to the same repeater to listen. It is as if the TYT KT-9800 is transmitting on the output of the repeater. Like the + shift isn't working at all. It must be a bad one.
I just purchased one from China works perfect all except the mic has muffled deviation not radio" put it in crossband clear as a bell. What other replacement mics w/ rj-45 connector out there I can use on radio.
Or adapter rj-45 to ?
Also neen mic rj 45 wiring diagram.
I bought this radio to communicate with my buddies when we off road and I still don’t know how to use it. Lol I should have bought the cheap handheld radio.
Thank you. What would be a good beginner class or video I could watch?
Quick question
Does this radio capable of handling MARS frequencies?
73,
KB3EPD
Jermaine
+Nasty Stingray Yes
Thanks for explaining this!
No problem
Where can I get WIN 10 drivers for the USB programing cable?
Thanks ! very helpful ... I'm trying to program my tyt 7800 . it came with channels 1 and 2 programed so how do I delete those channels ?
Just overwrite them
@@HamRadio2 Ok I didn't try that cause it didn't work on my Baofing ... Duh ! ... Thanks much .
Can you set this radio up to cross band to uhf at max power and vhf to low power? I want a small foot print for my vhf HT because I only want to use it as a hands free option for around my property to get into the local uhf repeater
Yes you can do that
I have motorola CDM1250 and now have the TYT 9800 but i wonder which one is better for distance.
Can you tell me if on the 9800 does the buttons on the face plate light up. I can read it in the car.
No they don't
I plug in the microphone and I get an error message and solid tone. No idea why....????
Sounds like the microphone is wired incorrectly.
Can anyone help with this radio? I have been trying to listen to Air Band but all I get is a large signal indication but only hear static... Radio shows AM and I can hear other bands but not Air... Also AM keeps going off and I have yet to be able to hear CB AM either...
I know this is a old thread. But cannot find any info on how to program 10 meter FM on this unit. Also, can you confirm this unit will transmit and receive on 10 FM SSB?
Thank you
It is FM only. And you can only use 10M on the left side of the radio.
Hi Jason very good info vid I have a HYT TM 800 in need info on how to input frequency channels Thanks Michael
Major Mike?
"THANKS",MY FRIEND!!
How about doing one with CHIRP. Tried the yaesu 8900 method but they don't open the same way I suspect.
I'll look into that, thanks
Would you please show how to program this radio using the software for it and CHRIP, since it is capable of alfa-numaric programming and display.
Can you key in the PL tone with the mic keypad while being at the tone menu option or only up and down?
Only up and down.
Aww, that sucks. Not that I'm lazy, but, cycling through all the tones can be annoying. Thanks for your response.
greetings; can u PLZ tell if the "cooling fan"is supposed to come on when they unit is turned on.or,does it only come on when it senses a certain temp.mine only spins for about a second when i first turn it on??
It should come on when you key it up, or when it gets to a certain temp. It should not run all the time.
Thanks so much. K4APD.
Thank you brother for this video really helped me out big time.
Thanks for watching
Hi, I search for this Radio TYT 9800 Quadband with option 4M/ 66-88MHz?
I seems to be hopeless to find some,
Nope, never seen one with that band option
@@HamRadio2 I have a friend thats have this 9800 with 4M 66-88
@@larsjonssonX07 You should ask him, then. I've never seen one with that band. I suspect it is sold in Europe since that band is used there and not in the USA
Have you figured out what the "A", "B", "C" and "D" buttons on the microphone work? I thought they would access my first four hyper memory slots, but when I hit any one of them from the mic nothing happens.
+Rob Williamson I haven't tried those. I think they are programmable in the menu, like the P1-P4 buttons, but I am not sure.
+Rob Williamson the "A", "B", "C" and "D" buttons on the microphone are additional DTMF tones like the numbers. They are not used a whole lot, but some radios still have them. Try keying up on a simplex frequency while pressing the numbers and letters at the same time, you will see what I mean. Hope that helps.
I recently purchased the tyt 9800 but I can't seem to get the cross band repeat function to work. I did not buy it from your website but when I do key up the numbers that both sides of the radio repeater side flashes the signal strength but that's all
Hi, if I throw freqs into the TYT with Chirp, will the codeplug make the changes on the radio in order to use the repeaters? All info is on the codeplug correctly.
THANK YOU!!
You're welcome
Do the frequencies stored in the A B C D E F keys appear only in the left VFO? Is there no way to make them appear on the right side?
How are these Radios holding up long term?
I just received my radio from Amazon and it said that it will do GMRS frequency but I did not get them paper talking about changing the frequency. So can this radio do gmrs frequency?
Thanks for the reply Jason. K4APD.
if your scanning say 6 meter can you save a repeater freq. in memory can you scan it. also will the memory hold freq. from all band and scan them or just scan one band freqs. at a time?
If you are scanning from the left side of the radio, which all bands are workable from, then yes. It scans all bands at once. The right side only scans mem channels in 2M/440
Hey guys... Just out of curiosity... Why would I need to set to lower power? This doesn't use battery, is there any other advante for lower power than energy saving?
You mentioned the power output levels for the 2 meter & 440 mhz bands but I missed it if you mentioned the 6 & 10 meter bands?
They're about 25-35 watts each
Ham Radio 2.0 that is very low? I get 50 watts or better on both bands with my own TH-9800.Do you have the power settings right on yours? Those numbers for yours are quite a bit below spec.I love mine and have worked all over the USA on it on both 6 & 10 meters during band openings.I use it Mobile with the Diamond CR8900A antenna with pretty good success.
@@1OFGODSOWN They're advertised at 50-watts, but I have found that rarely they get that high on those 2 bands.
I just received this radio but cant seem to find the mic gain? Is there a mic gain lol? Thanks for this video very helpful.
its in there as "narrow or wide" but they call it something else.
@@HamRadio2 you have to purchase the programming software and the cable and there is a mic gain in the program lowering or increasing Mic Gain. But it can only be done with the programming software
I'm getting ERROR on Display when I press Simplex or Duplex after I enter my selected simplex frequency and try to Tx. Any advice?
Sounds like you're outside of band
Will this radio Morse identify when it's in crossband repeat? DTMF remote control? The radio that its a copy of does.
I think so...
I have watched this video and every other one I can find and I can't figure out why I can not transmit on a repeater that doesn't have tone. I turn encode/decode off but I can't transmit. I can transmit on repeaters with PL tones but not ones without. I've tried everything over the last few weeks, changed every setting. Anybody have any suggestions?
So I'm trying to decide on a radio for mobile.
Does this radio have an over the air stun (DTMF lockout code) feature?
The best vid thus far on the 9800..Nice job.. Have one coming from China.. Some dispute as to transmit AM .. Can you confirm or deny..
The original models would TX on AM. The newer ones are not supposed to, but I have seen some situations where they actually will.
I had a Yaesu FT8900 and returned it... they changed how "banks" work from the 8800. I really like how you can program banks, and assign them to the 1-3 and 4-6 keys (or A B C and D E F on the TYT) and more importantly scan that bank. The 8900 would scan ALL freqs and didn't utilize bank scanning.
Are you familiar with what I'm explaining? And if so, does the TYT scan each memory channel (or channels assigned to that letter) individually? Or, will it scan like the 8900 does?
... I program a 9800 tomorrow. So I'm curious and would like to explain it to the owner.
I have this radio and it worked fine for awhile. The radio now beeps constantly, If I turn the squelch turned down the radio beeps shut off but the beeps turn into a burst of static on and off about every second just like the beeps were. If I turn the squelch back to the right the beeps start again on and off about every second. This just started doing this and I can not get the beeps to stop except when I hit the PPT button. Any ideas on what might be causing this problem and how to fix it would be truly appreciated. KE0RPU

I have the same issue with mine. I've looked all over the internet for a fix, but haven't been able to find anything. Were you ever able to find a solution? Otherwise, it's $200 down the drain😔
What is the difference between the 9800 and the 9800 plus ?
Is there a way to open up the rest of the receive range ?
So I can get the 222 MHz band RX and the 500 and 600 band ?
9800 Plus replaced the 9800 a couple of years ago. It fixed some minor issues with the original model
I have a question about TYT TH-9800 radio.
Do you know how to programming this radio to set in "Memory Only" mode?. I tried programs following the steps in the manual, but when I turn on the radio by pressing the LEFT V / M and Power button, only ADJUST MODE appears on the screen and the day does not respond.
I hope you can help me.
Just ordered one after a long time looking at this particular model...really wanted 2 meters AND 6 meters...already have 2 meter HT's. Got the programming cable for Chirp too but no power supply. Any suggestions on how to run this indoors off AC power or off a battery that I can keep in my bed room? My "shack" is my room.
+nateo200 A power supply would be best. You can run it from a battery and get a maintainer, but be sure and get a sealed battery because charging a non-sealed battery indoors can produce toxic fumes.
+Ham Radio 2.0 Yeah my main worry is about non-sealed batteries, I've always been very cautious about electronics and batteries. I've decided to go with an AC to DC power supply adapter for now but in the future I'm thinking a battery will be nice for portable like use. Didn't know this radio did cross band repeating which could be helpful for certain events I attend, its very effective for fire/Law enforcement so pretty cool to see it for amateur radio! Thanks! KD2KKH
Great videos, Can you please tell me if you can monitor 2 frequencies at the same time, like the UV-5R? or can you only monitor one?
+Jay Money You can hear both at the same time...they'll talk on top of each other.
+Ham Radio 2.0 Thank you, just so I make sure I understand I can monitor the police on one side and TX and RX on the other side at the same time?
Also: which Radio do you recommend this the TYT TH-9800 OR the QYT KT-UV980?
I currently have a Baofeng UV-5R for mobile and LOVE it. Thank you
Mine shows the callsign of the channel, not the frequency - I can't figure out how to select frequency display (during channel scanning) instead of callsign... Can someone mention the correct menu item to select this?
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or what I guess I need to buy another radio and see if it works the same. If I would buy one from you would you check out the crossband repeat feature for me before being sent?
Hello, I got this radio and I have a problem every time I program it then shut it off from the power supply it loses all the changes I( did is this normal or I am doing something wrong? do I have to keep the thankspower supply on all the time?
Does the radio have a remote stun/kill function like some of the smaller radios when using it as a repeater? If so, does anyone know the code? Thanks - Can't find anything in the manual
What kinda antenna you running on this guy? I just purchased one and want the right gear for my truck as well. Thanks for the link
I have watched your video with interest multiple times and applaud your efforts. I seem to be having great difficulty in installing the repeater information in memory. While the radio will capture the frequencies, I receive no verification that the shift, code and other data has been installed in the system. After inserting the data and saving, I go back to check the individual channels and it defaults to the factory settings rather than the newly installed settings. None of the supposed settings are displayed on the panel when I access each individual saved frequency. The radio is brand new but I am certainly having difficulty in getting it prepared to go on the air. Have ordered a replacement radio but there may be only one small thing that I am not doing properly albeit I have watched your video and attempted to duplicate your actions but to no avail.
Robert Vogtner If you are in VFO mode and go change the Offset, PL or shift direction - those settings should stay until you change them again, or until you exit VFO mode (like go into memory mode or one of the hyper channels)
If this above situation isn't true, it sounds like there is a memory problem with the radio. Contact the supplier you purchased the radio from.
ok this video title says how to program the radio i thought it meant software and unlocking frequency just bought this radio and i'm still new of ham radios got my tech lic last year and this is my first real ham radio need video to know how to download software and unlocking frequency
At the time of this video recording, there were no locked frequencies on this radio. Programming by hand is what everyone was asking for. But for software, is recommend using Chirp
Thanks
Please help, I can program any AM frequencies in, such as 123.500mhz... why?
I don't believe the radio goes to that band
Enjoyed your presentation- I also enjoy listening to NOAA weather channel (162.400). I’m wondering how to change the frequency range so that I can pickup NOAA. Will you explain how it’s done, please?

The radio I have will RX on 162.400 already. I didn't change anything.
Is their a way to display the frequency after you name your channels? On my Yeasu FT-60 if I press the band button it will switch between the named frequency and the frequency.
Yes you can choose which to display in the menu and in the software.
You may do so with the touch of a button but there is no such thing as a YEASU anything.
LOL,NO SUCH THING as a YEASU anything.It's a YAESU just like it says on the radio & every piece of paper that came with it including the Box.Do you actually own a radio that you can't spell the name on it? LOL {:>)
