What a difference a couple of days can make! Sometimes it is the right information presented and or received at the right time.Thank you so very much ...
Talkpod FTW!!!
I love the 5watt version. Works flawlessly. I bought the 8, but had no luck with it. It recieved and transmitted fine, but the screen scanned at a snails pace. And worse than that, it flickered very badly while scanning. I returned.
I've posted this same question on other review sites hoping someone can help. Has anyone else noticed a really bad battery life on the Talkpod A36plus 8W version? I realize it has a much fancier display than the Baofeng UV-5R & UV-82HP, but I keep the back light timer at a minimum and have even tried the deep battery save mode. With little to no TX and very small amounts of RX, the 3200 mAh battery drops too quickly. I turned it on the other day and it read 7.8v. Two days later with no use at all it reads 7.2v. My Baofengs under the same conditions last a ridiculously long time. So I'm now thinking of buying the TIDRADIO TD-H3 which has even less mAh than the A36plus 8W, but not if it will drain quickly as well. Is it the colorful display causing the problem, or is Talkpod itself just a bad radio? Any ideas?
I have not experienced that. It seems to last just as long as my other radios. Yours may have a bad battery. These are my two favorite radios: czcams.com/video/cSyFDQydmuo/video.html and czcams.com/video/s6CLNsY4F84/video.html
@@TrailTraveler I will definitely check out those links. Thank you 👍
Do you have an in the cab permanent GMRS radio too? Or do you only use hand hands? I highly recommend an in the cab solution, as well as having hand held options. I’m sure this is nothing new to you and I apologize if you already have one in the cab and I missed it.
We run a Midland MXT500 in the cab
@@TrailTraveler good choice.
