Sainsonic GT-890 Baofeng dual band review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 гру 2015
- Here is a very small, dual band radio by Sainsonic, available at www.radioddity.com, 25 watts on VHF, 20 watts on UHF. Audio reports are superb, and unit is small enough to fit ANYWHERE....
At 4:33 you mention the fact the transceiver display has a battery level indicator, which you normally don't see in a mobile radio but I think they may have included it in this particular model because it would a good choice to be used as an emergency dual band transceiver, such as a "go-box" radio. As such, it would likely be powered using an external battery, and IF this is the case, having a battery level indicator in the radio display would be a useful feature to have.
This Looks just like the Juentai JT-6188 radio I bought last year. The Prog is the same and the operation. Thank You for the demo.
Best video I've seen on this. Cheers for making and sharing. 73 G1JXI
this is the best video on how to fix the "my computer is the devil and im dumb" programming problems!!!! thank you so much - one video solved 3 different programming problems for me!!!
I hear a lot of complaints about the mic audio quality on the Baofeng mini radios. Any suggestions for similar mic replacement?
Question: Can someone tell me if this radio transmits on VFO mode out of the box? My UV5R and UV82 both will TX on VFO. This is kind of scary especially if you are tuned to a frequency you're not authorized to Transmit on.
Seen reviews of the Sainsonic GT 890 while it works great as a base it is said to have issues while in motion in a mobile.
Anyone have an in motion review of this unit??
I think I've actually talked to you on the 146.640 repeater before! de WU2F , member of the UCF radio club.
Excellent thank you very helpful
Hi What is the 6 digit password when changing the frequency range? Please advise.
I have a problem the receiver is full of noise and the squelch does not cut it
what sell I do?
Good Job you have done with this review. Very useful. QYT KT8900 is quite similar and has 240 to 260MHZ, and when programmed with cable and software we got response to 220mhz to 225mhz. Does it do the same? PY2FI
The speaker output on that is pretty damn good.
Have you tested it with a Watt Meter to be sure of power output?
What antenna are you using in the video?
I was just wondering if sainsonic made any radios like this.
My radio will not program above 146.995. I am trying to program 147.090. This occurred after a factory reset. Any idea on what I did or need to do to correct the problem?? Any help would be appreciated!!!!!!!
at 25 watts its gonna be something like 2 amps, assuming it isnt stepping down the voltage..
I would like to have seen you program it !
What software would be used for this radio..? The Btech..? 2501 software..? Thanks...
Looks very similar to the Btech UV-2501, the biggest difference is the Btech has a cooling fan and costs $15.00 more. I spent $25.00 more and got the UV-2501+220 tri-bander to get 2M, 1.25M and 70cm. It didn't come with the software or programming cable though. You can download the free software, but it wanted a lower screen resolution than what my laptop will do and wouldn't display properly. I used Chirp, which will automatically calculate the offset frequency for you.
Hey Eric, on ebay it says it goes up to 480Mhz, I'm just wondering if it transmits all that high? I'm looking for a transceiver that does dual ham bands and UHF CB (in Australia it's around 477Mhz) This way I could limit my antennae and radio clutter hehe Cheers
Yes this will do the job but just beware that ACMA laws only allow UHF CB to transmit at 5W.
What power supply should I use for this if I get it?
Does this radio use Chirp software like other Baofeng radios??
Very helpful, i was able to set my mini sainsonic radio up to the PC due your help, another point i noticed was, that a CD of the software i received does not work on a 64 bit PC, it only works on a 32 bit system, keep up the good work
Liking this mobile. I carry the baofeng handhelds and would like to have a mobile in the car.
Will the memory hold if I unplug it or will I have to reprogram my frequency's?
memory will hold
How many kilos does it cover ?
Does it EM-Bob?
20 and 25 wats,no low power??
Bang for buck it's gotta be worth a shot...
GMRS use requires an FCC license, and licensees are permitted to transmit at up to 50 watts on GMRS frequencies. Only the shared GMRS/FRS frequencies are limited to 0.5 watts. The fee is now $65 for a 5 year license and there is no test. Most people don't even know that GMRS requires a license.
So can you get a GMRS license and TX on that band without having a HAM license?
That looks just like my Juentai 6188, even the packaging...
+TheSmokinApe It seems like there are several companies selling the same radio under their name. There must be one manufacture producing them
I can only seem to find a QYT KT-8900. It looks like the same radio. $78.49 on Amazon. This may be the perfect fit for my car console.
I've tested this radio at home. Soudwise it's pretty decent. In a car, powered from a cig lighter is worse, well also depends on a car and the electronics inside of it. Programming is terrible. For direct it's pretty OK.
how about S-meter signal bar? it's fake?
That looks just like my Rugged Radio RM25R. I think it’s locked it doesn’t come with anything what this one come with like the USB cable & disc.
very good sound quality better than some Japanese radios
how much does it cost
Just so you know: FRS is limited to 1/2 Watt, GMRS is limited to either 5 Watts or 50 Watts depending on what you're doing.
FRS is now limited to 2watts cheers

Channel's get big buddy...
There's no link the description. ;-)
+ilovedragons Sorry, i'll fix that. its www.radioddity.com
Hello, I have the QYT KT-8900 which is the same rig I guess. Anyway I've owned this rig for some yrs now and was going thru my manuals and ran across the QYT manual so I was going to see if there was anything in there I could use that I was not. Ok on page 4 of the manual at the bottom half of the page I read that if you hold down the F button and turn the rig on it will pop up the word password and blanks under that. Now it says that if you enter the password you can enter a Band 2m 440 or 220. So does that mean you can turn it into a TRI band or just change a band that was in the rig already? Either one would be cool as we don't have much on 440 here but do have repeaters on 220. So does your manual say the same on page 4 ? Bill (kc4ubc) at yahoo.com
Could you scan police/fire with this unit? Thanks!
Depends on what your local PD/FD is using for comms. If they are 800 or P25 then you are out of luck. If they are VHF/UHF then yes you can listen in. I've done this with my cheap-chinese-radio. Be warned...they will also let you transmit on that frequency as well. You really don't want to do that.
has anyone verified the power output?
Yes. They will easily do 25W

QUT KT 8900?
good price ?
Hi. Very informative. Thanks. FYI, though...Baofeng is pronounced "Bow-fung" not "Bo-feng" or "Bo-fung".
Awe, it's cute lol :)
Anybody know if it has crossband repeat?
No it does not have cross band repeat

Here are 2 related links that may also assist. Programming is the same as the UV2501.

because I have a Mac and cannot use the disc, I just went the CHIRP way.
I have one work beauitful . good for me.
Review baojie bj 218
its like a ht 10watts
Get what you pay for, buying these could mean the end of the Big three.
Fuse??... in the cigarette lighter plug..
This radio has 4 different names
Exactly the same radio as Juentai JT-6188 and the Juentai is a little cheaper.
Are you happy with it? 4S7EF
i hate when people think they know what they are talking about and spread false information. Gmrs users are allowed 5 watts on a handheld and 50 watts on mobile radios, i would know i looked it up on the fcc website and im a gmrs licensee
But the radio still isn't part 95 certified
How is the Chinese software? that cme witht he radio, Is it Buggy or does it perform well?
Can this radio use the CHIRP software? Radio sounds good.
I purchased the Baojie BJ-218 and the software is an incomplete nightmare written by a Juvenal wannabe programmer who had never written a program before. The software showed me that Baojie the Chinese manufacturer was not really serious about selling his product in the United States or anywhere else for that matter. No wonder the Chinese had to use suicide nets around the Apple I-PAD factory in China. Slave labor has it's draw backs but you can't beat the price, a weakness for us capitalist!
GMRS is limited to 50 watts... FRS is limited to .5 watt.....
+roaddogg507
NO, a Licensed GMRS station is allowed 5 watts a repeater maybe more ? www.fcc.gov/general/general-mobile-radio-service-gmrs
FRS is non licensed and 500 Miliwatt or a 1/2 watt www.fcc.gov/general/family-radio-service-frs
Small base station with antenna no higher than 20 ft. above a structure can transmit 5 watt erp... GMRS Station (repeater) allowed a max. of 50 watts erp.
§95.135 Maximum authorized transmitting power.
(a) No station may transmit with more than 50 watts output power.
(b) [Reserved]
(c) A small control station at a point north of Line A or east of Line C must transmit with no more than 5 watts ERP.
(d) A fixed station must transmit with no more than 15 watts output power.
(e) A small base station must transmit with no more than 5 watts ERP.
Pay attention to: 95.135 (a).
Panne scan
come on Eric get real I like some of your videos but man please tell the truth
CHIRP is better
I disagree on the audio reports. The transmit audio on the GT0890 is terrible. High-end audio response is very restricted and the fidelity is terrible. Anything less than a full-quieting signal requires (not may require) multiple requests to repeat transmission in order to achieve comms. Anyone remembering the very early Alinco radios (with phase modulation)? These sound much worse than that.
Additional note: Programming is very clunky, tedious and time consuming. You have to triple-click into a field to both select the field and its contents for replacement. Tabbing to the next field doesn't work. I've programmed one of these for a local LEO and told him I would only program his radio since I now have a file constructed but would not program one of these again for anyone. More than 40 years at this. I'm not a newbie. These are pure junk.
