    WHAT'S IN THE VIDEO?
    00:00 - Introduction
    00:36 - Why I bought the RT95
    02:18 - About the radio
    03:12 - Dual Watch demonstration
    12:42 - Using the Retevis RT95 on the Sunday 8-Net in Bristol, UK
    After using the tiny RT98 on most of my recent tests, I have found a couple of limitations with the radio. I purchased the RT95 to address the following three issues...
    1. RT95 has a clear display with an excellent 9 point signal meter for clear signal reports
    2. Much better speaker quality when not using external speaker/line out.
    3. Detachable microphone.

    I bought one of these 18 months ago. I intended to use it in the car but decided to get to know it by using it as my VHF/UHF rig at home first. WOW, it is far better then I ever expected. The receiver sensitivity is exceptional and both TX and RX audio is first class. I bought a second one for the car as I just had to keep this first one forever in the house. I can certainly recommend this radio...John EI2HO, Dublin Ireland.

      Couldn't agree more. I only use it in the car but it's nice and simple to use, does enough and sounds great. Excellent value.

      Yep. Same radio. They just churn them out and badge them up. Can’t argue for £120 though!

    Nice review, thanks for that! Just got one myself (oh well, with an Anytone badge). Haven't connected it yet, but some of my HAM friends already have one in their car and they think it's absolutely amazing. These radios come very cheap over here in Holland. The common price is € 99,-- (No Ali, but at the official dealers).
    Thnx again and 73!

      Yes, I have this permanently in my car now. It’s the perfect middle ground between capable but not over-complex (which you just don’t need in-vehicle IMHO). Really nicely made and silent!!!

    Finally a review on this radio from some one who actually paid for it. Every other review I've seen has been tainted by a free radio from Retevis.

    Hi, I have just gained my Foundation, now M7BVK. I have just purchased the RT95, like you I was a little surprised by th size of it as you where. I have a very basic knowledge of radios etc. And would welcome some advice, firstly a power unit for it, I have a man cave in my garden with mains electricity. Any recommendations on a PSU. Also antenna, again any recommendations? I have seen on here someone using a car magmount with a metal base , no sure what you think of this?
    Any help or advise from you or your subscribers would be gratefully appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Pete M7BVK

    Hello, can you help me? I hesitate to buy an RT95. But watching your video, I notice that the power is not as advertised. I use UHF 400-430mhz. Do you know the TYT THUV8000D? they have the same characteristics, right? In practice, they seem identical? Also, it seems that the RT95 is a marvel. Thank you my friend. AL

    Great review Miles, and great detail too! Really considering this unit or one of its variants… quick question, what did you use for a mic clip, given that this microphone has a ring hook clip as opposed to the coin-style one. Thanks!

    • @tdcattech
      @tdcattech  2 роки тому +1

      Good question. I don’t mind the use of a hook but I literally have nothing to hook this on in my car. I don’t want to screw or stick anything to the dash so I end up putting the mic in the cup holder! 😃

      If you're going to sell the car, the last thing I would want as a buyer is any permanent mark of fittings and fixtures. I avoid them wherever possible. Thanks for the feedback. It's a nice little radio. The lack of fan is amazing!

    Hi are you aware that this radio is illegal to use on PMR as it is multiband for Amateur use only, PMR can only use 500mw and the radio must only have PMR frequencies . See Ofcoms info for PMR, I am only advising so you keep trouble free as it is monitored.
