Brilliant video as usual, one thing your face looked like mine when I saw the screen size, went straight back and got a ftm400. please keep up the good work.
Hi Ian, I have been waiting for you to do another review on this radio. I am very concerned about me being able to connect to repeaters on analog. and do you think the screen is big enough. Thank you, I am in Australia {Brisbane} from Ross Stokes
Hi Isabella. I actually sold the radio fairly quickly purely because the reason I bought it changed pretty quickly. The 300 works fine on FM and repeaters are not a problem at all. It works in exactly the same way as any other radio in that regard. Whether the screen is big enough I cannot say. It all depends on how you want to use it. It is a clear screen and easy to read. It's no 400 screen wise but it is good enough. The cooling is much better than the 400 also
I hear that the FTM-100 is being discontinued, and that this is replacing it. Do you know if the SMB-201 (desk fan mount) will fit this radio and work with its new vented air flow system? My Gateway FTM-100 gets hot if it's constantly TX'ing both sides of a conversation (100% TX cycle) and I like to keep the SMB-201 running. I'm curious if the FTM-300 will be a useful replacement Gateway radio if my FTM-100 ever dies.

Excellent and informative, looking forward to the next video of it on air.
Thanks for the comment Douggie
Thank you
Would be interested to see how you feel about only having a single user definable group when most radios have a couple of dozen or so these days.
Thanks for the comment. I have not looked at the radio in any depth yet but I guess it all depends how you use the radio :)

Hi. It won't fit directly as the mount on the 300 is different. I guess it would be possible to make it fit in some way but not directly.
