    Randy, thanks for the video. As noted in some of the other comments, this appears to be the same radio as those offered by Anytone and Retevis. I did not see anything in the video to suggest any significant differences between these variants. It looks to me like the Anytone is currently the best value on Amazon. I've had the Anytone version for a couple of months and think it's a very good value. It sounds good and works well for my purposes, so I do recommend it.

    This radio is very similar in size to the Leixen that I have mounted in my wife's Jeep. Oversized binder clips on the center cowling is all you need to quickly and for the most part, solidly, without screws, kind of sort of permanently mount. This was a technique used because the wife unit was not sure she wanted a radio in her Jeep. Here we are over a year later and I don't think I need approval to upgrade to a nicer radio. A win! I can see adding a GMRS like this is in the making!

I just bought one of these and they've done some updates, one of them being that you can't transmit on the interstitial channels 8-14 the other that the manual is a little better. I used the same power meter and had the same results with low/high power tx and that quirk with function 29, CH display, you still can't get into VFO.

    Randy, Be advised...Radioddity has the DB20-G on sale today, 7/27/2021, for $119.99 with an 11% discount code of Moon11 that was still valid as of today. This is surprising, as the Moon11 code was advertised to expire on 7/25. Net delivered price for one radio today was $106.80 with programming cable...which is an 18% discount from normal list price. An exceptional bargain...!!

  • @TheKingOfInappropriateComments
    @TheKingOfInappropriateComments 3 роки тому +5

    2 tone and 5 tone is for selective calling or PTT ID usually (in tranceivers). So if you are receiving on a radio that decodes 5 tone for PTT ID, it will show the ID number that you have programmed in. It's like DTMF or MDC1200 if you're familiar. Or it can be used to selectively call another station that is set up for it.
    TX inhibit means you can't key it up only monitor.

So we ended up getting another Shmidland. We just did a 3,600 mile road and camping trip with two Jeeps using MXT400's and they worked great.

  • @jaybarr3307
    @jaybarr3307 3 роки тому +2

    Great review. Like the radio. My wife's Midland MX275 only does narrow transmission and I've had zero issues even talking to handhelds set on wide. (Wish you'd review that radio, btw.) Hate when the manual leaves things out. The Wouxan 905G has the same issue where there's features in the software not at all discussed in the manual - even BTWR doesn't know; I talked to 'em. I've been wanting to install a GMRS radio in my car instead of using my 905G and, with a terrific GMRS repeater in town, this might be the perfect fit for my needs. Cheaper than the MX275 - wish I wish you'd review, btw. Lots of people pan that one but I've had only success and having all the controls and a speaker in the mic is a seriously invaluable feature if wanting to keep the radio tucked in someplace due to real estate issues in the vehicle.

  • @aop3404
    @aop3404 3 місяці тому

    Just want to start by saying I love your videos, and that the salt levels from “some people” in your comments is making my blood pressure spike, but I’m okay with it.
    Just purchased this radio in October of 2024. The manual looks different and unfortunately is not very accurate. In my attempt to access the menu via the microphone button instructions I locked the unit… which I then somehow unlocked by mashing buttons. I am going to keep tinkering until I figure out how the buttons actually work, but I must now advise that buyers beware: The radio works extremely well, and paired with a Nagoya antenna I am hitting repeaters over 20 miles away loud and clear. The manual I received, however, is garbage. I think it’s worth figuring out, though.

    Hopefully to comply with the "handheld" rule, this radio does not transmit on 8 thru 14. These channels do not allow wideband FM, so if you leave them in narrow mode maybe that will increase the receive audio level. In general, I like your reviews of GMRS equipment. Yours is the first channel I visit to check out GMRS equipment since you do good, useful reviews of most all of it.

  • @garretlewis4103

    I know this is an old video. I recently purchased on of these for less than $90.00 on Amazon to replace a Midland MXT115 that was having issues. The manual now is bigger. The B channel always comes up in VFO mode and you cannot change it to start up differently. It does have good volume. One thing I have noticed after brief use is once receiving a transmission the squelch will sometimes stay open. Keying the mike will stop the open squelch.

  • @MrThemeddleman
    @MrThemeddleman 3 роки тому +8

    TX inhibit, prevents accidental transmission. Two and five tone, could be used for differentiation between your radios for other listeners, five tone on your mobile (change to) walkie with two tone (change to) base radio, no tones. Every radio would audibly key differently, like a designator for each. Might be applicable in trailing, shorten conversation in transition from base to mobile to portable. Trust me, this is a lot to explain but in real time it's very short and self explanatory.

    This radio is really nice for the money. I have one, used it for GMRS for a little bit and then unlocked it to HAM when my license came. I get good feedback from people and the quality of transmissions. I wish San Diego had better GMRS repeaters, it kinda sucks down here where I am in the east part of the county. The only downside is that the channels can only be assigned a name through software, you can name them from the face but as soon as you change channel it goes back to frequency mode. I contacted Radioddity and their customer service was really good, they confirmed that it can only be done through software. Kinda lame but whatever, its a good radio for 89.99.

    I just upgraded from the VTech 20 v20 to this radio and it's great. But like you said the manuals kind of crap but they have done some upgrading to it. When I receive my half of the microphone was out like the light didn't turn on I don't know if that's normal or not and I did reach out but I haven't heard anything back. And it's not compatible on Sharp yet that's kind of a bummer because I do not like the other software it is really hard to use. But in hindsight it works pretty well and it gets the job done once you figure out how to program it. I like it cuz the speaker is loud and the heat sink works really well and it seems to go farther that might be tech did.

    My radio came with an actual manual. Only used it a few times.
    Edit: Just discovered this radio can be used in other bands. No reprogramming needed.

    Love the radio check of the unit with the guy saying your repeater sounded awesome. 👌 You are just kind of wierd I hate, no love, no, oh crap I I'm just confused by our meaningless and non-existant relationship. Keep posting these Notarubicon. Funny as hell.

    I am looking for my first radio. For my first I really want something low profile and simple. I really enjoy the controls on the mic. I'd be interested to see a follow up video and review. Maybe even compare this to the Midland mobile. Thanks for the video's

    New Radioddity DB20-G CPS software V2.02
    1. Change the default bandwidth from Narrow to Wide.
    2. Address the bug that "when repeater TX frequency change, RX frequency automatically match"

      Any 5/8-wave "GMRS" antenna will work fine. I use the Midland MXTA26.

    Just picked one up yea I know a year late! Have you figured out what happens when you push and hold the v/m and turn it on at the same time? 😉

    Looks like the manual got upgraded and Wideband is now the default setting. Thank you! Although the chinglish is mediocre...
