It fits in the palm of my hand, but the 20 watts gets the signal out. This review will show the radios features and how to use it.

I've used this for about a year and really enjoyed it so far. The incredibly small size made it so easy to mount in my 4runner without taking up a ton of space; I basically tucked it into what used to be the cigarette ash tray with just a little bit of dremel work on the dash trim. It's so compact, it completely stays out of the way, and yet so capable for its size and cost with all the things it can do. Really fun little radio! I'm considering getting a second for mounting on my off-road ebike for a little portable adventure radio.

Also happy to see an actual review of this, alot of the other channels just did unboxing and didnt really put it to use on camera. Earned a Subscriber.

I'd love to see a follow up video on the various interfaces possible with the K Connector on the left side. I plan on putting a TNC on mine soon. A simple Audio cable to Android phone is a cool touch as well.

TY for all the detail on the radio. Been looking at it to take on the road when in a rental. Wish there was a lower power option for working with a hotspot but that wouldn’t dissuade me.

I have this radio on my mobility scooter and it is awesome!

It's the same radio as the Retevis RT-73. Yes it's a very nice size and it holds so much promise but it will eventually brick like mine and others. It'll start by losing frequencies and then will start shutting down until it just won't boot up anymore.

Can this radio be manually programmed? I see everyone having issues with the software and programming, I don't even have a computer.

Another great video. I borrowed one of these from a friend for a couple weeks. I like it for the most part, but there were a couple little oddities that frustrated me. I'm thinking if I had a little more time with it I would have grown to like it a little more. Now that I see that you have used it and like it, I might order one just as a little DMR base here in the shack! 73

Curious if the DB25D will transmit outside of the ham bands. According to their website, it is Part 90, but the manual says ham band transmit only.

3M Hook & Loop fasteners do work, but if you really need something to 'stick' to something else, I recommend 3M Dual-Lock. I've found that it has a much better hold for heavier items or items that may get quite a bit of vibration, such as a radio mounted in a vehicle, and it doesn't seem to wear out as quickly or get clogged with fuzz like Hook & Loop fasteners.

I just got my tech and general license. I only have a HT right now. I see many people recommend the RT-95 as a good first radio on a budget. This looks to be able to do everything the RT-95 can do while adding DMR and digital for about 80 more dollars. What would you think about this as a first radio?

I live not to far from you. Good to see a local YouTuber!

Does it have vfo access input? Looking seriously at this radio with also the vgc n7500.

Can this radio be programmed manually without the software?
