Works like a charm, thanks for this information. Your video is truly appreciated.

Airtag, I switched to Tile. Main reasons, my phone can ring the Tile Tracker thus finding my keys, and the Tile tracker can ring the misplaced or lost phone as well. Apple Airtag cannot ring the phone. The Tile trackers has a longer and louder ring than the Airtag and more distance as well. Tile does not need a fob, it has a built-in lanyard hole.

I am a Ham operator. I studied for 3 months and tested successfully for my Tech, General, and extra license. However, I want my family to have a backup for communication and there is zero chance that they would put in the time and effort for a Ham license. GMRS is a really good option for them...and me to communicate in an emergency. Watching your videos, you have warned folks not to refer Chinese radios as CCR (Cheap Chinese Radios) so I will not do that. I did just order 4 Baofeng GMRS-9R inexpensive radios. I have also applied for a GMRS license. I'm looking forward to getting them setup and distributing them to my tribe. Thank you for your video's they have helped me in this process!!

Same here I know not to swear just calling somebody homely or ugly does not mean I should be chastised for it it's true so I called somebody ugly it's not hate it's the truth but they removed my comments without telling me why I think when they remove my conversation tell me what kind of they removed and what it's pertaining to so much for freedom of speech huh?

While disappointing, not unexpected. I think they are experiencing growing pains, but hopefully will sort it out soon.

Damnit man I knew I had another brother out here in this F** up place. I love you brother, more than you'll ever know

Rebrand of the kydera tr-60000dm dmr repeater

off topic ...can you recommend a portable gmrs radio that has a built-in PA system...

I used Randolfo's affiliated link to buy one of these today. Check it out soon. You'll be very pleasantly surprised.

Thank you for this Tid Bit of useful information.

4:44 before we get to see the shortwaves radio.

On myne (3years old) I was able to unlock it with the programming software

"Real phone" staaaaaap 😅

I don't have gmrs or a ham license and I listen and talk on both all the time. Make up a call sign give a fake name qrzed aint perfect, If I talk to my friends its on FRS, I'm not a jammer I'm respectful and I know my phonetics and I know the lingo, I get along with everybody and I don't interrupt, just a freedom loving American that believes no one "owns" the air and we have way too much overreach by alphabet agencies!

To those guys on "THAT" GMRS channel that were so very excited about this repeater, all I can say is....I TOLD YOU SO!

Ok, hey sir pls ignore this comment, I writing a few key words to see why my previous comment on another video was removed, so none of what I'm about to say isnt meant to interfere with or disrespect your work acoustic thug zesty fckin

Thank you!

Has anyone been able to program these with churp?

Been a ham operator for the past 250 years. Grms operators got soft hands

So if people leave a comment about grounding, they get.....<lowers sunglasses>....grounded.

Hell i always thought gmrs was what ham operators graduated to

Consider waiting a year, or until Bt Warrants all units are professionally Tested for min 3hours continuous Output greater than 47 watts. Bt tunes these for power using software, If its new but they do Not test, or supply software which Allows end user to adjust to specs Then they (BT) need to compensate Repeater buyers For Btech neglance

Have a question does it require a license to even listen to the radio like your local police or fire

Sweeeet. Helped me out a couple months ago. Mine says “not a ham radio” Any way to lengthen the message? It flashes so quickly. Thanks Uncle Randy!

I have used Icom, Yeasu, and Btech customer service. Btech has been the best, most responsive service in the amateur radio industry. Sorry you were not able to get a working unit.

I love this guy. He is so entertaining. And sadly, I am a licensed Ham Radio operator. But I can’t figure out how to use the. Boof wang walkie-talkie. That’s a big 10 four good buddy.

Randy, our GMRS Btech RPT50 experiences were nearly identical. Using Windows 10, I could not use the Btech software or the firmware. After manual programming, the Morse code identification would work only one or two times no matter what time interval was programmed. Lastly, on high power, it only broadcasted at 14.5 watts. Paypal will issue a 100% refund after the repeater is received by Btech in South Dakota. The cost to ship the RPT50 back with a shipping business this morning, via UPS was $139.30! I'm looking for a replacement rock solid GMRS repeater in this price range... any recommendations? Can true happiness be found with a Vertex 7000? Best vendor for the Vertex?

Ok. So at th 15:30 mark I quit listening.. It looks like no matter what. The UV 82 and (UV 9R ...IP67) rated too are still my go-to radios, and yes, Chirp compatible. Thanks for the video.

As of May 2024 are there any new updates to this video that would be logical, or would the KG-1000 still likely be the best choice (IMHO)?

Complains about people being butt hurt and then makes a whole video because hes butt hirt. I don't care if you delete comments. Your impotent rage is hilarious.

Thanks very informative video

If youtube started to shadow ban your videos would this upset you? If so, I guess you should welcome yourself into the studpid people club as this video took as much effort as this comment. 😂

Will it Work on SP or EP with my Betamax? SP in conjunction with EP make for a long night.

CZcams restricts free speech unless your on the left they can say anything they want.

Interesting choice of private videos at 6:19 czcams.com/video/XccM_kCJ-vo/video.html

sounds about like everything Ive bought from Btech.

Bruh all I do is reply comments that relates to videogames and they're removed. Every single reply I make is gone!

Fuck youtube

My one packed up after 3 months. I have a useless Tidradio. Was the best hand held radio I ever had. Tidradio will not respond or AliExpress as many others have found. Some have removed AliExpress account. I won't go that far. I have now ordered another alternative radio and cut my losses.

Yo

I have some crappy cobra radios that I am trying to utilize with a pair of UV-5R radios I have.... The UV-5r's talk to each other perfectly and receive from the crappy cobra radio. My issue is getting the Cobra to receive from the UV-5R's. Is this possible or with the UV-5R's on talk to eachother? Thank you and love the vids!! .... note.... have been utilizing channel 16 462.5750 for "testing" purposes.

All this information you’re providing is extremely valuable and put into simple terms for those who have no clue about the many intimidating options in settings. Thanks
