Baofeng DM-1701 Dual Band DMR HT
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лют 2020
- Another DMR HT from Baofeng, this is the DM-1701, which isn't all that unique, really. That doesn't mean that is a poor performer, though - just that it is something we have seen before. Take a look at the video and feel free to comment below.

What other types of videos would you like to see about the Baofeng DM-1701 Radio?
How about doing a video on the Btech amplifier? It is compatible with all the Baofeng radios and other and comes in DMR VHF and UHF with 50 watts. Its only $140. Is it worth it?
@@WoodyofTulsa Did that one - ua-cam.com/video/zkGT_AZ5K5Y/v-deo.html&ab_channel=HamRadio2.0
Yes, it seems to work well
@@HamRadio2 I bought both UHF and VHF units. It hits the repeaters well. amazing unit. They might need a fan for heat.
Will it work with any other Baofeng walkie-talkies?
I would like to see a video with you tuning a Baofeng 1701 with a sledge hammer.
Just picked this up. Testing for my technical next weekend. Trying to learn as much as I can about it.
Me and a friend built a pretty solid code plug for it after figuring out it’s unique software. Taking all the info and throwing it into a csv file on excel then uploading it worked the best. Antenna isn’t very good though. Suggest upgrading to a signal stick. It takes a SMA female if anybody was wondering
I've had a few Baofeng radios and just purchased this one. They do exaggerate their RF output and do have some frontend overload problems but are very cheap, look good, well-built, easy to use and program, customizable, and have a good battery life
How's the anologue mode? Can you type in frequencies and scroll through with 12.5khz steps?
This is a rebadged retevis RT84 and can use RT84 firmware and code plugs without any issues. I have had one for over 8 months.
They're definitely the same radio, but I am not sure which one came out first. So the RT84 could be a re-badged DM-1701. Either way, it is good to know that codeplugs can be shared - too bad it can't open more common codeplugs like the UV380 and such.
Hi one stupid question can this radio do DTMF Decoding on analog channels? Like for your PTT ID
Thanks
Baofeng DM1701 or RADIODDITY GD-77 ?? Best to have in a bugout bag..
I'm heading the DM 1701 how good is it to use because there is quit a few ham operators that moved to DMR ops in Pittsburgh pa
I'm currently looking at this radio or a TYT uv-390 to install open77 firmware on. This looks so much like the RT84 I used to own.
Is it still true (April 2021) that these radios have no code plugs available for them?
I have 2 call signs, one from the USA and one from Panama. I haave DMR ID's for both, do I need two radios or can I change the ID when we are in Panama? We live there about 6-7 months out of the year.
There are radios where you can load more than 1 contact ID for multiple users, but this one won't do it.
I grew up in Panama and love it there and still have family there
What’s a good portable ham radio with GPS?
Hi there,
What might be the best whip antenna for this radio?
Nagoya NA771
Maybe you could help me here I'm thinking about buying a new dmr radio and having a hard time choosing between a 1701 and 1702
If this model 1701 use like real dmr scan same in anytone 878 ??
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.
Best and probably only non fanboy ham radio review channel on youtube.
Thanks!
Do they work with motorla dp481?
Akhirnya kena review juga...
Saya punya dm1701 dan 1801 hampir tidak jauh berbeda....kabel data juga bisa dipakai bersamaan.
Video yang bagus.....
Ada permintaan sedikit nih bos...
Tolong buatkan juga video tentang radio yang memiliki fitur sfr....
Terimakasih ssekali....
Terima kasih, saya sedang mengerjakan review tentang 1801 juga. Apa yang Anda maksud dengan SFR?
@@HamRadio2 Terimakasih atas waktunya.....
Yang saya maksud adalah radio yang memiliki kemampuan Single Frequency Repeater.
Sya pemula sekali dalam DMR,
Saya berharap anda mereview sedikit saja tentang sfr, bagaimana prinsip kerja, apakah fitur sfr itu kecanggihan software semata atau ada piranti hardware lain yang ditanam dalam radio yang memiliki fitur sfr tersebut.
Terimaksih....
Saya tidak mengetahui ada radio yang akan melakukan SFR. Saya telah menggunakan perangkat Raspberry Pi untuk membangun repeater frekuensi tunggal tetapi saya belum pernah melihat radio yang akan melakukannya secara asli
(in case anyone is wondering) they are talking about how good a Chicken Salad Sandwich is, especially when you toast the bread. and I agree.
Which do you recommend the DM-1701 or the DM-1801?
Greetings and thanks.
He does not respond to me? Thanks
I can load the MD380 programming software and load in a MD380 codeplug and go the channel screen and export the csv file and and import it to the DM-1701 programming software in channel screen with import of the CSV file same with the digital contacts also.. I have the DM1701 and the import works saves a lot time.
I'll try that, thanks. My main point in the video was that you couldn't load the MD-UV380 codeplug by default into the DM-1701 software.
are the programming cables the same as the other Baofeng radios
Yes
The programming cable for the UV models does not work with this DM model.
No modo vfo está em digital,como faço pra voltar no analógico ??
Não me lembro de imediato. Eu não tenho o rádio comigo agora, então não posso testá-lo. Quando chego em casa, posso procurar e tentar encontrar isso.
Iam trying to set it back to the settings like it was out of the box can I do a reset and how?
Write a blank codeplug to it
How do I do that?
You think this radio might share a lot of the features and software of the B-Tech DMR6X2?
No. The 6x2 is a much better radio.
how do u do offsets in cps ?????
Set the TX and RX frequencies accordingly
would u recommend this or the DM1801 or the TYT MD380?
The MD380 is a monoband. I would recommend the MD-UV380 which looks just the same and is a better radio than the DM1801, imo
@@HamRadio2 thanks a lot ! whats your thoughts about MD-UV380 being a direct receiver compared to super heterodyne in the MD-380?
Jason, I really want to get into DMR but I only use a Mac. I purchased an Anytone from Bridge not knowing that it can only be programmed on a Windows matching. I finally talking them into giving my money back because they do not mention that in on the website or even in the manual. Is it the same thing for the DM-1701 to get the CPS? 73 KH6JMK
Yes. I'm not aware of any DMR radios that'll program from a Mac.
@@HamRadio2 man, that is hard to believe that the thousands of us that us Macs can't go DMR and the CPS.
@@StanCook I am a MAC user as well and find it hard to believe how close minded the Ham world is to amazing computers. I finally broke down and purchased a used DELL Windows 10 from Ebay and use it for the sole purpose of programing radios, Echolink and My WiresX node. It all works but I HATE Microsoft and anything connected with it. I chuckle each time I hear someone on the radio complain about Windows updates and computers crashing etc but they don't even want to discuss MAC's. Oh well, to each his own I guess but I do understand your frustration.
I have the baofeng DM1701 and for a good price. I do Like the size but it is hard to use. It will not stay on the talk group I was in and always have to go through the contacts. So I’d look for a better one imo.
Thanks for sharing
Is there anyway to the get the radio to at least listen to any freq higher then 480mhz?
Not this one, that I'm aware
@@HamRadio2 Do you know of any DMRs that can listen to any freq higher the 480?
Some of them go to 512mhz. I don't have a list but I think the Anytone models will.
I bought this but need help getting programmed....can anyone help?
Check the next video I did on this radio
I like the DMR protocol, but there is a lot of baggage that comes along with it. Program the DMR radio, program the DMR hotspot, then if mobile, your cellphone has to be connected to the DMR hotspot. The audio quality associated with DMR is unquestionable good, but is all this worth it?
Or just use a DMR repeater. No hotspot or mobile connection needed.
But yes, you are not wrong, I just always maintain that it isn't as complicated as people make it out to be. It just takes a little bit of time to learn.
My only drawback is it requires a current Microsoft office subscription to import the contacts database. Had to do the 30 day free trial until I found other software to load the DB.
I have 2 friends with the same problem. Would you mind passing on how you where able to upload the user contact database?, thanks Ken
@@n1kkri I found a tool called DMRConfig. It's command based tool that will upload direct to the radio.
Bill, have a link for DMRcongig ?
@@billchappuie8551 Hi Bill, I did a quick search and what I found is that is a Linux program. I think that would confused the problem a bit for a non linux user. Thanks for your reply. Ken
@@n1kkri Go search it on Github, They have a dos version there i believe. github.com/sergev/dmrconfig
Can that radio do digital phase ii police station or just analog?
I'm not sure what that is but probably not
It is a phase I/II radio and is compatible with MotoTRBO
I'm not going to dog on this. If this works for you, I'm happy along with you. I would need plenty more transmitter and receiver data before I'd be willing to jump on it though.
Agreed
Do his eyes not resemble Tom Hanks?
Can you use this without a license??
No
In the uk we already appear to have moved onto the DM - 1702....possibly same radio in a different body? £64.99 sterling so that is seriously affordable for getting into Dmr...gotta love these Chinese radios...
I'm working on a video for the 1702. They're available but not from as many vendors
Boa tarde, o que fazer pra tirar a senha dele caso eu esqueço 👍🏽
Provavelmente existe uma maneira de redefinir o rádio, mas não pesquisei
I was told this radio requires Microsoft Excel to upload the user contact
database. I have 2 friends with this radio who can't upload the user
contact database and a couple thinking about buying one but have no
plans to purchase Microsoft Excel to upload the database when it should
have been built into the Baofeng software. Is there a work around for
this problem?
I didn't try that
Will this send and receive APRS?
No
Do you know of any Baofeng or Chinese radios that will do APRS? Wanting to try it out but not wanting to spend $300
The only Chinese radio I know of that will do APRS is the Anytone, and it is $300. You can't get APRS for cheap.
Is it digital so I can listen to police
Just saw this on another video. FCC - Baofeng DM-1701 Dual Band DMR HT
Not sure what you mean, but someone in another comment said their radio had the sticker. So if you purchase one, just make sure it has the sticker behind the battery
I have one of them radio and the battery suck but nice radio
WISH YOU COULD PROGRAM IT LIKE UV5R NO CABLE
Does it do promiscuous mode ?
Just ordered the Baofeng DM-1701 from Amazon. I already have the UV-5R. The DM-1701 looks intermediate to program from a computer.
Hope you didn’t pay over 100
@@AK47z I just ditched Baofeng for Motorola.
I have a Wouxun KG-UV2D awesome radio
I have review of some of those models upcoming too
To buy it or not... I would like to use it in forest, mountains.... I m with EMS.
So many of the dmr radios out just get the anytone 868
878+ actually
I can't read very good but I want to get my ham licence
Henry Wilson there is some online study guides that does have audio then when you take the test there will be someone that can read it out loud to you.
Yeah there are audio and video guides on the internet, practicing reading also won't hurt
Under ideal conditions, digital communication is better.But in real mountain, as well as on (heavily) rough terrain, analog communication is more practical, one can say much more enduring than digital.
One tests across a metroplex, filled with buildings, structures, traffic and RF sources of every kind imaginable, DMR out-performs analog as far as distance goes. It also depends on what frequency you are talking about - VHF vs UHF. I can see that analog would work well through a forest or out in rolling hills of the countryside, but how does it compare with a real DMR radio? I wouldn't use this Baofeng on that specific test.
Just ditched Baofeng for Motorola. I managed to get the programming software from a friend of mine who is a dealer for Motorola. Goodbye Baofeng and hello Motorola and TRBO DMR Radios.
He does not respond to me? Thanks
Nobody can see you
uss enterprise 1701. cant import 1701 🤣. good review 👍
Haha
Ham Radio 2.0 im waiting for the combo triband analog, dmr and network radio 1701 D the locutus edition borg HT 😂
🇨🇦AWESOME FOR FREE RADIO
GUESS WHAT IN CANADA RADIOS UNLOCKED🤣🤣MY UV5R GOES TO 520MHZ INSTEAD OF 470
Was looking at one of these and bought a Motorola r7 lol
can u add police channels to that?
If they use VHF or UHF frequencies, then yes
Appears that this HT may be a pain in programming. Thanks for this video update.
73
Cant hear crap. When i program for digital. In sac and. Frowning
I do not own this radio. I do own BFs, so this radio probably sucks just as bad as the others. I would like to see it on a service monitor. There's probably a good reason it doesn't have a FCC sticker. The older model BF DMRs are not allowed on some DMR systems for good reason. You were too kind on this review. When a radio is garbage, don't sugar coat it. Just my 2 cents.
I don't have proof that it is garbage, so I wasn't going to say that. As you saw in the video, I didn't do any key-up tests with it. You could be right, but there is no proof you are right because, as you said, you don't own one of these.
@@HamRadio2 Thank you. You are correct, but...
Seems the best path is the ANYTONE!!
Agreed, the Anytone is my favorite.
thanks for telling me that the only radio I can afford is a shit radio and it sux ... Im on my own thanks man
baofeng is pronounced more like "bofung" or "pofung"
Yep
I GOT AN UNLOCKED TYT AND DM-1701
Guy spent more time showing his face vs the actual radio🤭
I don’t want no stinking locked radio! Or a radio where you have to build your own code plug
Get an RFinder
Are you able to put this in promiscuous mode ?
Yes, it is called "monitor mode"
Oh. No, man! this is extremely not serious. We need a real test, in an open area, with the same transmission power! At the same frequency. So that the camera could see the area and the distance. In addition, everyone hides a very important thing: digital communication loses to analog on very rough terrain. Where the reception is weak, you can understand the conversation and speech through the noise on the second or third attempt. And the digit in this case will be completely "dead", the digital signal does not pass any way. As a rule, at long distances or in extreme situations, when communication is a chance for salvation... analog is your only chance.
First.
LOL
if it's not a high dollar radio it get's no respect i talk ever where a anytone does just as good everyone can't buy a 200 $ ht o well lol lol everyone cater to the rich like icom lol lol
The Anytone has alot more features also. It isn't just higher priced for the heck of it. Neither is an Icom.
This DM-1701 works fine, but in no way does the quality compare to the Anytone or an Icom
@@HamRadio2 Plus Bridgecom actually provides some decent support for the 878 which is actually worth something.
