Mine was delivered this morning, plugged it in and away you go, great received audio, can’t believe the size, was missing the CTCSS for my local repeater and GB3NC was missing, downloaded the software, backed up the preprogrammed repeaters added the correct CTCSS and GB3NC, uploaded to the rig, painless.
Certainly worth the money
Great to hear!
Have had one of these for a year as a base station and mobile portable. Works wonderfully with about a 30 mile range to my home repeater. Raynet use also great for use as batter than handheld use from a vehicle with a good magmount antenna. Well pleased
It's a cute little radio for the price. I like how small it is and the fact that it doesn't take up a lot of room is an even better feature, so you can fit it in small areas. I love how simple it is to use and not too complicated. This is my first radio. Thanks for making this video
I have this radio I think it’s great. As you say everything pre programmed from opening box. It does everything I want for an M7 especially set at 10 watts. Got mine from Moonraker Eu.
Excellent review, thank you , ordered today
Great little radio, have a comet 9700 attached and I made 50 mile the other day without repeater.
Great starter radio, does get a little bit warm when in long convos.
Great little radio to get started with, got mine in the car with a comet 7900.
Easily hit repeaters 35 to 40 miles away.
I have 1 of these and they are excellent value for money and also work great as a scanner.
Nice little radio. As a new ham this is now my fixed rig.
Anytone radios are excellent for the price. This seems like a great dual-band micro transceiver that would work well mobile or in an ammo can, or other go box. I am considering one of these for mounting in my Jeep and to be transferrable to a go box.
I have one of these as a Christmas present. Great radio, only issue was that my local repeater wasn’t on there, and the drivers for the software don’t work for Windows 11. So did it manually. Apart from that, lovely bit of kit, and as my car is a lease vehicle, I cant have a big radio that needs fixing and hard wiring, etc, so ticks all my boxes!!
Great GMRS rig which can be easily expanded to include 2m and 70cm ham bands. Low amperage draw means you can run it off if a battery or small power supply. 25 watts max is plenty of power for most any comms.
I've had one for nearly a year now, in the truck or on my desk it's a great performer.
The only downside is that the programing software is a little clunky and will sometimes
seem to change things back to previous settings, so check things before you upload, to the radio.
I have had my own for just over 2 weeks. It also came with an antenna as part of the deal. Yes, it gets you on the air. Signal and audio reports are good, with distances of approximately 30 miles made on simplex. Although I have found that signals can be lost, to which I suspect that a superior antenna would make a huge difference. Worked through a few of the pre-programmed repeaters too, again with great reports. I was listening in on GB3YW from North East Derbys and heard an op from Leeds, my 10w couldn't make that repeater though. I did make it into GB3HH, not too bad given the hills between the radio and repeater..
I am in the process of making a yagi for 2m for when I go away in the caravan, or portable. So hope that makes a huge improvement on distances achieved so far.
Is it programmed through 'chirp'? As this was the only detail not provided by the supplier.
Looks good 👍👏👏
Excellent review thanks, on the strength of which I have ordered one. Where did you get the adapter for the power supply from please? I have looked everywhere.
Thanks for the review mate, I have the UHF only 15w version and I am quite pleased with it. What is the radio like selectivity wise on VHF? I ask because I bought a leixen VV898 a few years ago and it is rubbish on VHF. It suffered terribly with pager breakthrough and even a decent strength 2 meter station could be hard to hear because of it. I have considered trying it in a vehicle using an aerial of far less gain but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Once again thanks for the video, 73s...........
Very much like the Leixen 898 and 998 I have. Different display though. I kinda like the larger one on my 998 but I have not seen this one in person.
Hey Matt picked one one of these yesterday as it was so cheap and want to try some 2m simplex up at Dunstable Downs with more than 5w from my handy. May upgrade to something more expensive later on. It was cheaper than buying an Swr meter!
That’s good mate! I should be able to work you from Dunstable downs! Great take off from up there.
Cool. I could mount this on my electric bike.
Great radio for fist timer like myself, however mine doesn't have all repeaters installed and I did get it with the moonraker plug in .
I would like to see a video on how to program through the radio and not with cable as I have no computer.
Do you know if the receive audio is available on the mic socket? I was thinking of being able to use this for APRS with a TNC or similar.
Your channel has inspired me to consider making my own on the topic of ham radio, and was wondering if you had any suggestions or tips that might help.
My advice would be to always keep videos “on topic”. Don”t waffle about anything irrelevant to the video. Make sure you have a good quality microphone, or at least make sure your voice is clear. Do not use music in your videos apart from intro or outtro unless you have a portion of video that has no spoken words. If you’re going to use a camera, for recording yourself or items, make sure you have adequate lighting. One last thing would be to upload your video in at least 1080 with a CBR of at least 60. 👌
@@TechMindsOfficial Thank you! Those are all very helpful. I'm trying to think of a theme and style for my videos. Of course I'll be sure not to seem like a copycat of your channel, haha. My current idea is to possibly focus on military and historical radios, particularly lesser known ones.
The FM radio mode is great if you use this in an emergency go box.
Hi. I got 779uv but dunno how inpup offsets? Great video too
Some info please. Ive been unclear about the TX and RX parameters here in the US. What frequencies ranges are RX and TX setup for out of the box?
Hi, do you know why there different screens? The radio and manual show one screen, but in minute 3 there is shown another screen which is cooler then the original one. Do you know if it's possible change this screen? Thank you
Going to buy this little piece in a few days at my referece radio store! Hope will enjoy it, I will update this comment with my impressions about. 73s and good QSOs from EA5JDS Albert 📡
Hello, how could I configure my station to be able to operate with a repeater. I have correct subtones and frequency, I can transmit but I do not receive through the repeater. greetings thanks
How do you save alphanumeric display using only the front panel?
So i tried to add a name to a channel and it doest work followed instructions , in gmrs mode u can add channel name and it stores in radio, when in ham mode , i does not store name
Is there any way to tone scan when you are in VFO mode on this radio?
Can we listen (only listen) freq. 118-125mhz: aviation?
Rádios icon and yaesu can do it. And this? Tk for answer
I have one and as am M7 find it perfect for my 2m FM set up, nice clear audio and very user friendly.
My orders gone In 👍
have a question and need little help. FIRSTLY i will say GREAT video to program!!!
Second, I have downloaded the "Newest" software (AT779UV_Setup_2.01) directly from Anytone
Its all installed correctly
The port on the front on the computer is 3
The drop down on the programming software (communication setting) ONLY has COM 1
I have uninstalled and reinstalled
ANY IDEA??
Thanks in advance!!!
Open the Device Manager by pressing the Windows Key + R. Type “devmgmt.msc” and press Enter.
Expand the Ports (COM & LPT) section.
Right-click the COM port and select Properties.
Click the Port Settings tab and click Advanced.
Change the COM port number to an available COM port number.
I own both the Radioddity DB20G and the AT779uv. They both perform well, but the Anytone has developed a glitch and will no longer allow me to access the menu below #17
Intéressant. 🤔👍
j'ai un KT 7900D, je ne vois pas ce que ce anytone apporte de nouveau. (le KT a un ventilateur, lui!) à part les couleurs sur l'écran (mais j'ai 4 bandes)..
perfect for use on a ATV. I like the FM radio. ATVs dont have a sterio.
stereo
In scanning mode, how do you stop it scanning? There just doesn't seem to be a way to stop it scanning. It just stops at a working station then carries on.
did you try pressing the ptt shorty? that does the trick with most radios.
Yes, I have tried that as like you said it works with most radios, but not this one.
I'm just having to live with it, and when I'm scanning on memory, which I do a lot as I travel around to different areas where there are different repeaters, I just have to have a pen and paper handy so I can write down the channel number so I can manually return to it.
A very bad design.
@@timcooper5 Press the FN button (bottom left on the mic). Necro bump, I know. In case you still have this radio.
Just bought this radio but it's a crt electro UV uhf vhf .
interesting radio
Hi, any advice on how to power this up as I can't get my head around what connector it is or what power supply to use.
You would use a 12volt DC supply from your car, or if using at home you can purchase a 13.8v power supply. Just make sure it has enough current for full power.
Thanks, wasn't sure but I do have bremi 13.8v power supply I use for my cb
No signal meter?
Having a problem programming the radio. Should have purchase through Moonraker. Did not come programmed, or with a programming lead. Contacted Anytone three times. They never reply.
Great radio but very poor Mike plug. Why can’t they put a decent one on, as this one will cause problems after some use. Had to replace mine after a few months.
Can anybody tell me how to disable the "end of call" tone ?
Did you ever find out? It's a weird 'boop' tone, I don't think it's intentional...
👍👍👍👍
Tnx for that. Audio a little ropey, not your usual broadcast standard. 73's
Great radio but the instructions that come with it are very poor. There are a lot of features and you need to search the net everywhere to try find how to use them. I hope a more comprehensive manual will be available soon rather than a piece of A4 paper with a very basic overview of what the parts of the radio are.
I have the same radio but a different brand sticker on it ….
The only issue I have is that it only puts out 10 to 12 watts …. Not the listed 25 watts that it claims .
I still use it …. But installed it in my go box for Emergency use ….
I gave it a 8 out of 10 rating … because of the lower output wattage that it claimed ….
Why won't twerp work on Windows 10?
Chirp
Twice the price of tue lexan but is it twice as good?
i use the radio because the work truck i have has no radio
Really wish these types of radios would come with Bluetooth
That’s a cool idea
seems they have forgotten a fan
a very nice radio but i need a boom mic for hands free nobody akes one unfortunaly
US buyers beware! The US version is GMRS ONLY! It cannot be programmed for US ham / amateur bands.
Actually it can... using a programming cable and available online software from AnyTone for the AT799UV or Radiodditty for the identical model DB20 or from Retevis for the identical model RA25. There are both HAM and GMRS models of this radio that differ only by the configuration set by the software. The radio hardware is unchanged.
@@kowen8121 now you tell me. LOL.
Mine was order with intention of it being a GMRS only radio. When it arrived it was "wide open" but I changed it back. It's a nice, little radio and I've been enjoying it, especially since I updated the firmware to version 2.30 (it has a few less bugs in it).
Beware the Anytone 779UV UK version 2.34 cannot be opened up whatsoever. I'm sending it back as I want to use it while staying in USA. 4X4 Norfolk CB lied to me said they can be unlocked, that's BS they cannot be they are stuck. No Data Cable & the box had been opened. Bad information caused me to buy a cable & you do not unlock it with a PC. Hate liars who have bought a cheap almost useless lot & lying to sell them. It's going back tomorrow.
We get screwed in the US. 2m is locked out of TX!!!
As supplied... you are correct. But 2m can be unlocked using the manufacturer's supplied online software program and a PC programming cable. The Anytone AT799UV, if purchased from Amazon comes with the needed programming cable. For the Radioddity and Retevis models the programming cable is an extra cost option.
What a load of rubbish the programming software is, no insert, no copy, no past, no import, no export, no move up, no move down. its a abysmal. Also no nick gain, i really really love the radio, programming software is the assault!!! well can't describe how frustrating it is, it really is frustrating compared to anything else have used that's crap. For me this radio will never see the light of day with me again until they sort
eplace the software or chirp add this radio.
