Got one of those through Buy Two Way Radios about 5 years ago. Great HT. They through in a tri-band whip with it so I don’t have to change antennas for 220.
I just got my tech license tonight. I used GMRS for the past year and decided to have more options. I’ll probably take my general in about 2 months after getting my mobile and HT radios squared away. Then I can do HF…….. it never ends.
@@HamRadio2 don't you have a meter to see how much it bleeds over on the harmonics? Isn't that what the biggest fail these Chinese radios fail the most with the FCC?
@@jeffallen3382 That test shows spurious emissions, it doesn't show anything about FCC compliance. And as I said in the description of the video, this is a revamp video from 5 years ago. I didn't have the test equipment at that time. I am planning to do an update to this video soon, with more info
Thank you for the look at that one. I do plain to buy but had outher expenses. I do have the Nagoya tri band 220 antenna . so far I found my girlfriends Talkpod A36 can do 222 MHZ. works but not great. power is low and RX not so good but on UHF it works super better than the UV 5R sound. but still suffers over load on RX with strong signal near but. most of them China ones do that .Ham Radio DX has a video on that. you may need to put that longer whip antenna on for 220 band.73's
Thanks for posting. Two things, 1 looks like you are moving some hardware around in the shack. 2 this radio looks unimpressive. Thanks for saving me money
Jason you're the best you're number one Jason love your videos brother❤❤
I have two of these. One is my EDC and has been for a year now. We ahve a very active 220 system here in central Virginia. Thanks for the review.
Very cool!

Chirp works this radio. I've got 2 of them. Rock solid radios for sure.
eBay Seller by the name of "Let's Get Ready" includes a 13" tri-band antenna.
I am still a fan of this radio. I like simple and to the point!
Nice radio Jason😊

Welcome to the hobby!
Congrats! Glad you made it here
On the next video please put it on your watt meter. thx.
Nice looking radio, tnx man!
He does this stack up against the 878?
Had one and I really liked it. I returned it for a single reason: the horrible, long squelch tail. Listener fatigue guaranteed.
I've had mine for 5 years and it has never done that
According to the CHIRP website the TYT TH-350 is supported.
Jason, you got a CD with the programming software in the box with the HT. I assume the cable was there too.
Not 5 years ago, I didn't
Did you check, to make, should you have the 220 antenna on and not the 2m/440 antenna when you try to hit the repeater.
I tried both
Software is on the disk with programming cable
It is now. Wasn't 5 years ago
No testing if it actually is FCC compliant?
Testing? The only way to see that is to lookup the FCC ID on the FCC website

This is a re-upload, right?
Yes, after a new edit. I've done it a few times
Can the transmit be opened up on this radio?
I haven't checked this model, but most on most radios, that is possible
What, no love for the NCTC system repeaters? LOL
Haha
Watts?
Watts is a measure of power

Not everything is for everyone, decide what's best for you and go that route.
Heard that this one have some form of crypto. AES actually
FCC symbol? LOL
