      @@MrScotFenz PMR (T82 in Europe) is 446 MHz, the equivalent in the US (also .5 watt 500 milliwatts) is the FRS service, I think it is 462 Mhz. So you cannot take a European T82 and use it in the US (I think on 446 there are some police/fire etc) without causing interference and invoking (possibly) the wrath of your FCC. The same would be an issue going the other direction.

      Liberia in Africa,
      Military dictatorship of Burma
      and the USA.
      - all imperial units are now defined in metric, and you add a conversion factor on top to get imperial and then people have to convert back.

      @ReviewTechTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think so too, for the majority of people these radios work fine. Of course, the range is sometimes limited, for example with the European PMR446, but this is due to government regulating the output power to about 0,5 watts. People in the US are lucky because FRS should allow for 2 watts.

    Very good review - you pointed out some issues Motorola should consider to changes like the missing table charger and the missing PTT button on the headset. Beside that the mikrofon can only be annoying when you are going through a forrest. The bag is smart but it's not impossible to charge the terminals when they are in the bag - that could actually improve the fact of the missing table charger a bit

      good review, are you being ironic??
      he didnt even tested the products range in any meaningful mannor.
      c'mon bud.. 11 test all under 1.8km.. on a product that is labeled for 10km.. at least find its limit, if its 3Km or 5KM or??.. come on when the 1.8km have no problem you obviously continue to show the users an indication of the range-performance in his surroundings and perhaps compared it with the previous model to sense if the rf-ability is different and he wouldnt even inform the price when he analyzed the value with the previous line, so the viewer perhaps could put it into perspective.. old model MSRP and its bundle versus new bundle's MSRP..(and its likely a tacky speculative tactic to keep that info out so people will lick his amazon aff links in the hope to get basic info)
      "great review".. Im pretty sure your being ironic, as that german dude above is rancid as f.

    I like the idea of the microUSB charging because you can charge it with a powerbank. Shame it's not USB-C , but hey.... My recommendation for the next gen would be Lihtium powered and USB-C. Lithium either 1x 18650 or Li-Po pack exchangable with USB-C connector built into the the battery pack. Like the Petzl SWIFT RL.

      I also look forward to the next models , and hope that they are more like the previous ones , these look almost like toys , cheap finishes to save production costs on current models ! And the batteries are very weak, and they take so long to charge, I only use rechargeable AA batteries in mine at 2100mah each, they last a long time! 18650 I use in my flashlights, they are too heavy for a walkie talkie and was going to increase the size too!

      @@chuckyzaosurrealadhdphda7616 Yeah , the included NiMH pack 550mAH is a joke and takes ages to charge and drains quite fast. 18650 usually weighs 40-50grams per cell ,LiPo even less. Best 18650 are about 3350mAh from Panasonic or Sanyo , Molicell. Take a look at Petzl Swift RL battery, tiny battery and 2350mAh. NiMH is outdated and a missing Lithium option is a pity , alkaline batteries are a headache and throwaway waste. :/ Motorola should update , it's about time.

    Hello i have a question. can you or someone who reads this tell me if money is no option which PMR radio is really the best in terms of functions build quality just all around the best.
    Years ago i done a lot on CB radio but i have no experience with PMR radio. All i know is 0.5 Watt power is standard (by law) some of 8 channel some have 16 channel. This thing about 8 and 16 channel makes me think back of the time that we had cb radio with 22 channel but later we could have 40 and when you had 22 you always were frustrated when people go on the higher channels and you couldn't follow.
    Also are those brands of PMR radio that HAM operators use like Kenwood better or have more functions like those of brands like Midland - Stabo etc ?

      @@willidevegt8831 Hello from Lisbon Portugal ! I've always heard good things about the midland G9, I like the design, I just haven't bought it yet because it takes up a lot of space, but I've heard in reviews that it has more range than the midland g18, it must be because of the long antenna! I bought the motorola t62 a year ago and I'm sorry because it's not water resistant, but I've already managed to do a QSO at 39km and 42km I even filmed, but it was from high places! in the city the buildings etc absorb a lot of the signal, but I usually walk in the city in scan and I hear a lot of random things, especially cranes and works! Try to go to a high place, these radios depend on line of sight, there are people on youtube to open the midland g9 and g7 and cut the jumpers and the g9 is 5w, 10x more power! but the battery runs out faster of course! and makes radio illegal. Greetings! ps : you can always buy a baofeng uv5r that has 5w at maximum power and listen to many frequencies in scan and has many antennas that are sold aftermarket that further increase the range, but it is illegal without a HAM license too .

      @@EDCwhistlesSCRATCHCARDS Hello my brother from Lisbon
      Thank you for your reply.
      Many years ago i used to have CB radio and Midland is a brand i remember from that time.
      I`m really a Dutchman (meaning from the Netherlands) after living in Malaysia for little more then 11 years i now live in Munich Germany.
      Because of Covid restrictions and lockdowns i was thinking to start the old hobby of CB radio again.
      But i live in an apartment and it is very difficult to place antennas.
      That was my reason to start pmr446 because on 70cm you don't need huge antennas for that.
      Further more the G9 i thought to be a good choice because it also has the 69 LPD channels.
      But like i said i never hear anything on them only some times when the weather is nice i can hear some very young kids on there.
      Like you i also walked around the city and outside my place to see but really i get nothing.
      Maybe PMR is not very popular in Munich or even in Germany.
      I remember a time when CB radio was popular in the Netherlands you could buy those radios almost on every street corner but in the 3 years i live in Munich i never saw any shop selling them but only online.
      Also i never found any house with CB antenna on it.
      You are right about the jumper settings for the G9 but think about it that is only for your out going signal your receive will not get any better.
      So even if i would change to higher power i still wont get any signal maybe because there are simple no other people around who use PMR.
      Thanks for the tip about buying the Baofeng UV-5-R i bought one months ago including a programing cable and i software to program it.
      This one i hear other people talking but those are outside what i can legally talk.
      I programmed all legal frequencies in it (PMR446 - LPD - Freenet) but also with this radio on the for me legal frequencies i hear nothing.
      I had a peek on your TH-cam Channel and will subscribe.
      Looks like you like many of the same things that i do.
      I to like EDC and everything involved with that.
      I have a couple of Maxpedition bags and i collect knives and watches.
      My wife always scold me when i buy an other knife or bag asking me you still have not enough LOL.
      But when we are out and about and she needs something like a toothpick she is always happy that i`m prepared and can give it to her.
      Brother thanks again for your reply take care and stay healthy all the best also to your girlfriend
      PS isn't this nice i cant get a QSO on my Midland in the place i live but now i`m having a QSO with some one in Lisbon

      @@willidevegt8831 Hello again my Brother , this is my main channel , midland seems to be the best brand along with motorola, I've never had a CB, but I'm looking at the midland allan 42, it's a portable cb do you know? cool you lived in many places! I lived in 11 houses but in Lisbon!
      where I live I sometimes see some radio antennas on the roofs in the past it seems that the neighbors complained a lot about interference watching TV hehe . and is your midlang g9 original or did you cut the jumpers inside? strange that you never hear anything even when walking around the city, in lisbon I hear from clothing stores, restaurants, tourist guides, but most I hear are cranes! Yes, maybe there aren't many enthusiasts in your city, in Portugal the pmr446 community has been growing with the QSOs, lots of activity on Sunday mornings! I've seen some videos of your beautiful city and one day I want to live in Germany! Do you have a place nearby tall above the city where you can relax and scan the radio? That's what I do at viewpoints in my city and I hear a lot! wow that about cb radio there being so popular and sold out on the street must have been good times! here the cb was used more but not so much, I remember that my stepfather used it a lot in the truck because at the time there were only cb and motorola pagers that he used to communicate with colleagues!
      It's a shame the pmr446 is not used in your city, I used it a lot in 2009 and I think I listened to more things at the time and it was a budget radio from a Portuguese brand I couldn't speak at more than 100m but I could hear things from afar, maybe it was good reception but transmission sensitivity was very weak! I went back to using it daily for almost a year now with a T62 and these motorolas have good range, but I heard more things on scan in 2009! but they say that the users increased because it was necessary to add 8 more channels, but I never heard anyone from 9-16! Have you tried opening the squelch to catch weak signals from further away?
      in portugal I read a news that last year they raided lifeguards and seized many baofeng uv5r and will be fined and they were broadcasting on another frequency! but I know there are a lot of people in airsoft using uv5r because they are cheaper, others use midland! you saw pictures of the russia ukraine war and everyone uses uv5r! Thank you yes I love edc! I never go outside without my fenix pd35 flashlight, my whistles.. I also love casio watches since I was a kid! maxpedition I never had anything but I like their minimalist wallet etc! I use eastpak a lot I've been a fan of the brand since I was a kid too! So you like spydercos and cold steel too? and boots? I'm thinking of buying the Original swat classic 9 !hehe yes about you buying more , but when you need a toothpick ! even to save someone , a car belt stuck etc , it 's better to have it and not need it than you need it and not have it ! Thank you brother, all the best to you and yours! YEEES ! We have a QSO from Lisbon to Munich right now ! 73 brother !

    Hi again :), have you ever analysed the range with the Motorola PMRs? The previous series (TLKR, from T40 to T80) and the new series (TalkAbout T42 to T82), going from lower models to higher ones, have different range, up to 4km, then up to 6km/8km and up to 10km. I understand the way the radio waves in VHF/UHF work. But I just wonder why those different ranges between the models? They all have the same power, I guess same antennas of same lengths. Thnx.

      With that weak power, short antenna and at 446MHz it really depends on the terrain. In urban areas you'll struggle to get a kilometer. On open terrain you can get more than 10km easily. This is by design since these frequencies don't require license. That means anyone can pick them up and spam one of the 16 available channels. With bigger range these channels would get congested really fast. It's a nice trade-off I feel.
      For the most part these radios fulfill their purpose really well. I have older T60 which I use when cycling with my brother so we can talk regardless of traffic between us and noise. For camping, fishing, hiking and similar activities these radios are great. If you want more distance getting licensed is the only way.
      People use to get around the hardware limitation of 0.5W and fixed antenna by purchasing Baofeng radios, which was the reason those radios got banned in many countries since they can emit on PMR446 and FRS frequencies, but they can't emit with weaker power than 2W basically ruining the experience for everyone.

      @@ReviewTechTV in deutschland "imperial standard" is irrelevant so is to other over 7000 million people (7 billion) around the world, so lets put it in perspective 5.9 % mostly english speaking war mongering people are worthy of ignoring, and i will not enter in further discussion how germanic and romance speaking tribes have in the last 150 years directly been involved in genocide over my people by cutting total population to less than half with over 60% percent of casualties being young males, so you can imagine that if i am called upon i will be frustrated and angry, to say it mildly. Have a nice day!!!

      Yes, I understand, I hope it helps that all new English videos feature metre as well as feet, because many of my viewers are from the UK and the US, I think it is only fair to include both values. But of course you are invited to visit my German channel, there I only use the metric system ➜ th-cam.com/users/CreateSuccessTVDE
      Again, thanks for the feedback.

      I apologise, newer videos have both feet and meter. As a rule of thumb: city short range, suburban medium range, country side unobstructed best rage.

      I understand, some people would love to have a longer range, unfortunately, all PMR446 radios are limited to 0,5 watt, people in the US can benefit from FRS which can transmit up to 2watt legally.

      Output power limitation is set by your government, not the manufacturer.

      Yeap, GMRS should give you about 5 watts on a handheld, a 10-year license is about $70, unfortunately, we don't have an equivalent over here in Europe.

      US version can have 2 watt, so look for FRS version, see video description.
