    Good grief :) i'm returning to the hobby after decades away and i simply cannot believe this stuff, it's taking a megga effort to get my (72 yo) head round it. Great channel.

    Wow the Baofeng has stepped up their game....My first radio was the Wouxun which was not that well but it worked. So then I just went back to Commercial Radios like Kenwood TK3180 and had that one in service for 4 years during that time I also bought the TYT MD390 which I like and still use today. I bought the Motorola MotoTRBO XPR 7550e and the XPR 4550 recently and love the Motorola Radios and have been using them as my daily driver, my TYT MD 390 is my back up Radio.

      They brought out the RD5R a good while back, it's a duel band DMR and Anologue Radio that works fine on DMR. So this would be there 2nd DMR radio that works.
      This newest one looks very much like a Copy of the Anytone UV868 but with there early firmware version..
      It would be good if it could be re flashed with the latest Anytone Firmware as it's a far better user interface.

    Hi,
    I have a few Baofeng UV-5R radios that I’ve been experimenting with. Recently, I decided to upgrade and got a pair of Quansheng UV-K5's, which I really like. Then, I felt the need for digital radios and purchased a Baofeng DM-1701, hoping to catch some local digital chatter. However, I haven’t been able to pick up anything at all. It seems like I might be doing something wrong, or maybe there’s simply no one talking.
    Thanks.
    P.S. I got the digital radio because whenever I scan the area and hear chatter, it’s just static. I know this is because they’re transmitting digitally. After googling digital ham radios, I found the DM-1701 and decided to try it.

    Another good vid Lewis, seems to me all these Chinese radios are produced in the same place, none really being better than the other, as long as you can hit your local repeater. Tried the tyt 380 against any tone 868 on the gb7fw repeater ....... no difference other than ergonomics and display less strenuous on the eyes..... keep em coming, 73’s
