  • Previously I reviewed the Radioddity GA-5WB, Today I have its mama on the bench - the Vero VR-N76. She's a beaut! You can choose colors, program from the front panel or via cellphone app and it even lets you use a bluetooth speaker mic for added convenience.

    Hi Steve, I own the little brother to this radio. I have the BTech GMRS Pro, which is a GMRS transceiver, but receives anything on the VHF-UHF band. When I place the GMRS PRO next to some lesser expensive HTs, they receive many more repeaters in the 30 mile radius. I’m not sure if the GMRS PRO has a poor receiver. I’d like to know how sensitive the Vero receiver is. Thanks for all the testing you do.

    One question, will the Bluetooth - mic work with other brands / models of Bluetooth capable radios? Such as the TIDradio TD-H3 or possibly Anytone AT-D878UV2 Plus? That would be an awesome upgrade to other radios, if the Bluetooth protocols are compatible. If you are able to check, thanks N8EFJ.

    For its price point I'd go with a Japanese brand radio.
    As for the RG58, the length is pretty negligible to the power out test.

      Which Japanese radio would you get at this price?

    • @consumptionof
      @consumptionof 26 днів тому

      My main problem with Japanese radios is that the batteries are tiny, expensive, and tedious to charge. Sure, hams have been dealing with that for decades, but who says it has to be this way forever? Besides brand recognition, what's stopping Yaesu from coming out with the VX-10 with two large USB-C rechargeable batteries right in the box?

    I want PINK . so I fade the red one? That good coax better than most RG 58. Sticking with ABR made in Texas would be like ABR 400 wich is RG 400 . or ABR RG 8X I think that ABR 240 . if going with M & P coax. they have RG58C/U which is a tad better or Hyper flex 5 or 7. or even the 10 wich is big but very good UHF . But for short length that ABR 58 is not much loss. just look at data sheet and add that loss to your meter reading. you can test the loss buy connecting direct threw a adapter right to meter and dummy load direct on meter. no coax. then you just have adapter loss . which on good adapters is very small . 73's
