The Chin-glish instructions aren''t too bad, but I did have to watch you-tube to figure out how to set a repeater offset and store memory channel. I programmed mine by hand and it wasn''t too bad. You can even give your channels text-names without using software. Very happy about that. Tried mine out on a bunch of repeaters yesterday and did well. I put mine in service at an emergency radio base on top of a mountain and was very happy to now have good access to the MT and WY repeater networks.

The box says 65/45w, but the instructions actually say the power settings are: hi=65w, med=25w, low=10w. I tested power consumption at all levels and thought people would like to know how much power use and wire capacity this radio will need: Standby=0.22A, Recieve, 0.3A, Tx-low = 3.3A, Tx-med = 4.75A, Tx-hi= 7-8w (it seemed to use less on simplex channels and more on repeater-channels with CTCSS tones, but never went over 8A. 12 people found this helpful Helpful Report Rich5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Nice radio...

See more Despite what everyone says about a Chinese radio this one is a Workhorse. I can honestly say the radio to the power output. On high power it''s transmitting 70 watts. I do recommend running the radio on low power because the radio will heat up a little. I installed a small aftermarket fan on top of the radio and it really does an excellent job keeping it cool. . I do want to stress that this is an amateur radio and you do need an amateur license. I have hit repeaters easily 75 up to 100 miles away. Programming manually on the radio is very easily..... I read the owner''s manual approximately 10 minutes and the understanding of the radio and program it. I would definitely recommend this radio to anybody has great receives and everyone gives me a good audio check they tell me the audio is very clear. Even though the radio looks very similar like the BTECH 5001 it is a different radio on the inside completely different and menu. Make sure if use this radio for a base you need a power supply capable 15 or more amps .....The bese antenna is a comet x50 which is available on Amazon....and I recommend LMR 400 flex coax. .
Update. ....have had the radio for 9 months and NO ISSUES at all...... The power & audio are still loud and proud. ....10/13/17....It''s been about a year now and the radio is still working fine. ..No issues at all. ...73s......Update 1 year now and radio working better than ever. ....Update 11/10/18 Radio is still working fine and no issues... update July 27th 2020.

See more We were looking for a low cost high bandwidth FM Ham radio to do extensive Packet and VARA FM. In the past I had good luck with radios like the Alinco DR-135 Mk III but recently these have been discontinued or in very short supply. The TYT TH-9000D (136-170 MHz) 65 Watt FM radio has bandwidth selection 6- 25 KHz and performs well with high speed (1200 or 9600 baud packet or VARA FM) amateur radio protocols. Easy to program with the supplied (or downloadable) programming software. So far in testing daily it performs as well or better than the DR-135 Mk III. Also available in 220 or 440 MHz versions.

I saw someone was having problems with scanning, settings for scanning (scan to) and (scan se) will do two different things, scan (to) will make the radio resume after 15 seconds and the other (se) will make it stop scanning altogether on a active channel. 12 people found this helpful Helpful Report Ely Age4.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Not a bad little transciever.

See more It sat unopened for the longest time, but I finally set it up as my 2m base. Hooked it to a homemade 1/4 wave groundplane in the attic and I can hit all the repeaters within range without issue on low power. Programming is dicey, but to be somewhat expected from a Chinese transciever. I own a few Baofeng and Puxing HTs so I''m able to decipher well enough. Once you figure out getting the offset and PL in it''s easy to tear through programming in your repeaters. It''s not my Kenwood by a long shot, but neither was the price. I''m not the slightest bit disappointed though.

The Motorola is unaffected by the proximity of the TYT. The TYT on the other had does not like the GM300 nearby. It is a selectivity and exciter coupling issue I think. As a mobile rig I think this is a good little radio. It does have an odd programming sequence so if you are going to use it as as a mobile rig get the programming software. I do like the DSC N & I plus Encode and Decode being separate. Ifeel this unit is a good value. 2 people found this helpful Helpful Report Stan5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Annoying alarm Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2019 The radio itself works good but the alarm is annoying and often goes off for no reason.
