Fun to have all three bands! Hit three 220 repeaters (10 - 20 miles away) within a few minutes of programming the radio with CHIRP.73

Very nice compact radio with lots of features, excellent battery life, good range, and clarity. Will be buying a second one soon.

Very good radio. Small, but effective. The only reason I did not give a five star rating is because there was no Tri-band antenna included. Just a dual band 2 meter/440 antenna and a separate 220. I had to buy a Tri-bander separately. Other than that, I am satisfied with my purchase.

Great product is exactly as stated on the Internet. Works as well as radios that cost 10 times the amount

I just bought another on Amazon today! Radio sounds great and is perfect to have in case of an emergency. Keep one in the glove compartment or even bedside in addition to a phone. Great for hiking!

This triband radio is great. Has features the dual banders don't have, like adjustable Tone Deviation, and "Sync" memory selection so frequency is shown at top, and Named channel on bottom. Very helpful. Even if you don't need 220 Mhz, it's a better Dual Band radio than the strict Dual Band only radios

A great buy for the money. Compact. Quality built. Works great. Has extra features like flashlight and FM broadcast radio reception build itn. Got the Radioddity RD-301 Triband Antenna to go with it; it's a lot shorter than the tri-band antenna recommended by BTECH and available from Amazon for about $10. Also got the computer cable so I could program identifying names for the stored memories. So far life of standard battery seems very good. Very happy with this radio.

Like this radio! Very handy to have. Recommend getting the Triband antenna in case you forget to carry goth of the ones that come with this unit.

Good radio. Great audio. I just used this radio in a public service event. Very heavy use. No problems whatsoever. Better audio than some of the big three radios on the net.
