Talkpod A36plus. Did they fix the harmonics?

- We revisit the Talkpod A36Plus Radios to see if their updates have fixed the harmonics problem. Then we take a look at the carrier on the O-Scope at what looks like a new issue that has been introduced. Also, the 8W radio provided was sent from Amazon distribution, so it wasn't "hand picked." I know some of you worry about that, as do I.
Full disclosure, Talkpod sent me both the 5W clear and 8W black radio free of charge. The green 5W radio I purchased.

I’m happy they fixed the harmonics. Truthfully I never use low power so I’m not going to worry about it but I’m disappointed. I used my TinySA to test harmonics on mine so I know it’s clean.
I agree, and happy that you are testing your own equipment with the TinySA. That is a great little unit. I have the TinySA Ultra (mainly for the larger screen!) 73
I purchased 2 of the Talkpods also -- one on Mar 5 and the other on Apr 4.. now i'm wondering if the one from Mar 5 could be a Bad One... :) Thanks for the Informative Video also. I also Notice the Antennas on your two are a bit different than my two.
Great video! interesting problem?, you would think, they would get it right? I'll stick with my vx-7r, 73's
Yes, its an odd one. I've seen one other youtuber that has brought up the waveform issue as well. Thanks for watching! 73
nice video! which radio you think is better? between this one and the tidradio h3?
Thank you! Honestly, I'm still waiting for my TD-H3. :( I guess I'll just go buy one so I can get the radio tested! So keep your eyes out for that video hopefully soon. 73s!
I love my TID H3 and H8. They finally fixed theirs. Very happy. 😊
They tried their best. But, Not enough
We'll see how they go about fixing this one. I anxious to see. Thanks for commenting!
They're still SHITE. Luckily, I got two for free. One is bricked, one barely works and will not handshake with the programming software.
