You may manually program these radios but using Chirp, available for free as a download, makes programming, the 128 memory frequencies, much easier.
I've been using these radios daily, over local repeaters, for several weeks with excellent signal reports. I've been checking into Nets and talking with other radio operators with no issues.
You MUST BE LICENSED by the FCC to transmit with these radios on the Amateur Radio bands. Severe fines and penalties otherwise exist. Other frequencies may also require a license.
The size and weight are perfect for me. The battery life is exceptional and take several hours to recharge. These don't feel cheap. The cases are rugged.
The quality of the USB cable that came with these is not very good. I bought a much better quality one for programming but in reality the one that came with the radios is adequate. You aren't going to use it much after initially programming the radios.
Don't expect that these will really put out 8 watts. Mine generated about 5 watts across the entire VHF and UHF Amateur Radio bands.
The frequency control is also spot on. I verified this using an external frequency counter.
The 1 watt audio output is excellent. This is plenty of audio to listen to conversations with background noise while mobile.
The built-in microphone is okay but very directional. You must be very close to it for it to be effective. I have yet to try the external speaker and microphone. I expect these will be similar.
Overall the value for your money is extraordinary. These perform as well as other brands selling for 10 times more. I doubt that these are as rugged but they are incredible for this price and you can buy 10 of these transceivers for the price of one of the name brands.
These frequencies are generally only good for line-of-sight communications. Don't expect to be talking to someone over great distances. The difference between 5 and 8 watts of transmit power won't make that much difference so don't get too hung-up over power. The use of an Nagoya antenna will make a bigger improvement in both transmit and receive performance than the difference in wattage.
You will need a magnetic mount antenna, or similar, if you want to use these while mobile. They are not, however, hands-free except in VOX (voice operated transmit) mode which may or may not be useful for your purposes.
I highly recommend these for the price if you are properly licensed to use these frequencies or just plan to just listen. You don't need a license to listen. It isn't that difficult to become a legally licensed Amateur Radio operator. This radio equipment is an affordable place to start. Check for a list of Amateur Radio repeaters in your area. There is a lot of help available to get legally licensed. Check the ARRL website for various options.
Programming is not for the faint at heart. You need to know a bit about radio gear like most hams. I think many non hams buy these and thus one of the problems on why the FCC has had to step in more likely from owners programming incorrectly, using wideband and high power on FRS channels etc. Its really too bad.
RX sensitivity is lacking. I am sure the factory antenna is pretty bad so Inplan to change them out.
If you understand the channels, transmissions, etc. Using CHIRP to program is great. Again I see lots of CHIRP files that are just incorrect so you really need to know what you are doing.
The wideband is very handy when you need multiple radios especially in an emergency. Having the ability to listen on the other than ham bands is super...carrying only one radio better.
These are not a replacement for a top quality Icom, Kenwood, Yaesu handheld but I am glad I have a few of these on standby.
Original Review:
Saw a lot of negative reviews . After reading thru them , it became clear to me to most issues experienced were either user error, or users not educated on UHF and VHF line of sight limitations. If you want better distance try a genuine NA771 antenna or connect to a magnetic mount mobile antenna , or a magnetic mobile antenna stuck to a pizza pan at home to get a ground plane.
My radios came out of box MURS(VHF) and GMRS(UHF) unlocked, and were verified to have the High Medium Low power settings that come with the 8w versions. The provided programming cable pulled all drivers automatically using Windows 10 and seamlessly connected to each radio without issue.
Note that each radio has to be programmed in Chirp by reading and writing each radio in its own tab. You can not read from one radio and use the same tab to write to both radios. I can tell that's what other users were trying to do when using Chrip. Chirp works perfectly fine with these if used correctly.
