Terrific review! Liked & Subscribed!

I had similar results when testing mine on a TinySA. Outstanding price/performance. Thanks for the review!

So, if you are completely unlocked and can use both ham and GMRS channels, it won’t delete your programming when you switch between the two, correct?

Quick question, when you have it in the unlocked mode, will it not TX in the MURS bands?

But how does it do in a simplex range test? It would be neat to have a pair of these go against comparable Yaesus to show if the Kenwood's DStar or the Yaesu's C4FM is more robust. Or for that matter a pair of DMR radios.

Can I use it just for weather with out a license

Not working for me with the Gen2 version. The firmware is: HAM_230923

Compraré un radio igual a ese en México, si le hago esa modificación antes de usarlo en "de" funciona con mas potencia en am/fm, o hay q hacerle otra cosa,

Interesting, this is 'close in appearance' to a Baofeng UV-5R.

Data will be eraser. Yes or not?

I just got my radio and have read the manual and viewed many videos but I don’t know if I am transmitting. When I key the PTT button it comes up to prompt and transmit. Prompt is highlighted. Is that normal. Hate to keep bugging you.

C'è un firmware per l'H8 che gli fa ricevere la banda aerea?

Could someone please explain “de”

Hi. Nice Video. I have the Retevis MB 62. Same but Europe Version. Is it possible to mod this Radio with the hi/low Mod but under "de" the official 80 Channels from Germany (1-40 FM/AM and 41-80 FM) ? I heard after cut under "de" only 40 Channels present. Thank your for your Video and sorry for my bad English. I am German User :)

I was drawn to this unit, would you recommend a similar unit for the rag chewers of the group? Lol hate to burn it out with my talking.

Could you please tell me where you got the call sign letters you have on the back of your radio.

Nice job explaining the radio..best I've seen..sold me..

how do you swap between the upper and lower bands

Screen too small with large bezel taking up real estate, battery not great and no band scope/waterfall.... Nah, overpriced...

Amazing, worked, just unlock it.... 😅

I have a Kenwood D75 and this app on my Android Phone, Works very Good,

If it is completely unlocked can you transmit on 220? Or is it still locked to those dual bands?

alinco sdr hf radio set pls imditely requard to market

Thank for making this video! As a newbie and know little about this, I have a question about the 3rd unlock option ("unlock all"). If I have a ham or a GMRS TD-H8 and "unlock all," can I program by hand/keyboard some ham and GMRS freqs. all together on channels, say 5 ham freqs. followed by 5 GMRS freqs.? I'm not sure my question even makes sense... :p

Thanks for the video. A great blast from the past. I was working the booth that day with Budd abd Chris. (0.55) Dayton has always been a fun show. Danny WZ1P.

Worth it and I have the other major ones to compare it to.

I love mine, the people who talk sh-- about it are just sore because they are poor and can't afford one. And if you have one be prepared for people showing bitter envy to you. I sure have got people envious!! It's the best handheld rig I've ever owned by extremely far. The only tough learning curve is for the DSTAR and APRS which are highly complex to use. But other than that it's easier to use than any Yaesu I've ever had and the same for Icom. I had mine programmed with just over 100 ham memories the first night I had it in all three ham bands it has. Plus over 80 civilian aircraft frequencies which is great for a pilot like me. Also does he entire military air band from 225 to 380 mHz and I have 50 or so memories for that band. Very intuitive for regular analog usage and ever day use. Also has blistering scan speeds, which is cool. It has a built in ferrite bar antenna for broadcast MW which can also be deselected for another antenna if desired. The built in GPS receiver is just fantastic. You can have your Baofengs and other cheapies.

The display on your radio looks different than the one shown on Amazon. I like yours much better.

As a ham who is blind, yes, it is definitely worth the price, considering the over 750 voice guidance prompts that are part of the user interface. Compare that to yaesu (no speech) and Icom (minimal speech), not to mention the flagship models from those two manufacturers contain touchscreens. Thank you Kenwood for including us.

Does this mod allow reception in the air band?

Kenwood radios are overpriced and overrated as far as I am concerned.

If it helps, you can change the sensitivity of the VOX feature by holding down the VOX button for 3 seconds. The display shows L3 or d4.

It's a cool little radio with a unique design, but for very similar money, I would choose the Anytone AT-500M2 / Radioddity CB-500 which will give you a lot more radio for the money. 73

I find just using the NR and RF gain control on the K4D does a really good job of eliminating background noise

When in GMRS mode, will this still transmit in full 10 watts?

Does this also work on the (2nd Gen) TD-H8 Ham/GMRS radios?

ничего не понятно

I bought 2 of these and the one I unlocked, when I press the vfo button it wont toggle between channel and freq. mode. it just beeps when i press the vfo button.

nope

In my humble opinion and with 45 years of experience as a radio amateur, no super expensive HT is worth the money when most of its life will be spent locked up in a drawer.

I have a D74, do you believe there are enough new features to make it worth the purchase?

It's worth it if you have the disposable cash.... I dont but i still would like one. :)

Scrambler mode is present ?

What's the noise in the background on Transmit? I only ask because another Review of this HT said it produced noise when held close to another piece of audio equipment but I believe with a later (or perhaps latest) FW version, that issue has been fixed.

Great video!!!! Question re the amp enable in n out’s. Will these also pass the ‘amp delay’, from the icom 7300’s relay ‘out’ connector, to the amp, as if I had a direct cable going from the 7300 to the amp?? Im assuming so, as there is only one relay connect on the 7300. Thanku soo much. Billy

Did it stay working after this?

Thanks for the video. So many people have made videos, but finding simple text instructions is near impossible. Your video is perfect, short and to the point.
