TIDRADIO TD-H3 GMRS Radio，Air Band and NOAA Weather Receiver & Scan Radio Rechargeable Long Range Two Way Radio Handheld Radio 3 Pack

I have a uv5r which works fine as a fancy versatile FRS radio that can do so much more. But the tdh3 is even more versatile and can receive airband frequencies. Plus you don't need a special cable to program this. It can be done via USB or with the odmaster app on your phone via Bluetooth. Battery is kinda slow to charge and the keypad is different so it is a little more complicated but not bad. One button to scan, bright light, one button FM radio, NOAA weather. For the money and capability this is the best radio at the moment

My first GMRS radio and I absolutely love it! I do have nothing to compare it to but the radio works well, feels sturdy, and has decent range in my area with good sound quality when I use the VHF antenna. I like it so much I got my girlfriend a green one!

Goid radio for the price has alot.of good features nice radio good value

Very compact, clear sound, solid battery and great volume. This is now one of my favorite GMRS radios. Easy to program with either a computer or your phone. Programming takes a learning curve, but once learned you can program on the fly.

Awesome radio!!! Have used it on VHF & UHF and it works great. Sound quality is amazing and is light weight!

I recently purchased this radio and programmed it to the repeaters in my area, but I am unable to transmit through them. The radio is set to normal mode and successfully transmits on several standalone frequencies; however, it fails to activate any of the repeaters, even after I have verified the correct tones. This includes GMRS repeaters, so the issue is not related to frequency restrictions.On the receiving side, the radio performs well, but without the ability to utilize repeaters, I question whether this device can truly be considered GMRS-compliant. I also attempted to update the firmware in hopes of resolving the issue, but it did not help.Even with the current promotional pricing, I feel the product did not meet the promised functionality. Unfortunately, this experience has left me disappointed, and I will not be purchasing from this seller again.

After exchange for a replacement (firmware 240416), I Wouldn't bet my life on this, however if you haven't outgrown playing James Bond :++++ FM/NOAH work well.++ ALARM mode will send/receive SIREN/LED to other brands (Wouxun KG935+) or even same models -- will malfunction which requires reseat the batteries while your HT group won't know whether it works or not.++++ Can be reset to GRMS/HAM/both with few key press ... ---- ODMaster will autoload TX (transmit) to all band (GRMS+HAM etc) thereby makes it illegal even by accident.+++ Bluetooth program through cell, iPad, PC etc.. --- Bluetooth sometimes wouldn't save or loose all features/channels. (need battery reseat).** SciFi feature to send stun and kill of lost of similar set if power on at same channel ? --- Vice versa can render mine useless?++++ Various way to Quick grab on-air channel ... --TONES can be off by a few digit but can be second guess by look for nearest CTSS/DCS tone from chart.---- can't find Firmware update regardless of YouTube and various sources claims. It's $40 I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it.--- out of curiosity, haven't been able to RX receive AVIATIONRegardless of price , if everything works consistently then it's a must have in a hiking bugout bag for its range and signal grab for emergency. FOR NOW IT'S BETTER THAN NOTHING.On the far side when SHTF I'm not too eager to hold this to my face after the Israel IED stunt, and knowing the None-waterproof Lithium can melt through the car. And Last time I plug a Motorola into my PC, it bluescreen so I will dedicate a PC for CHIRP and have the ODMaster for fieldHowever I will stop now, and wait for the similar model with IP rated ?

This is a very small handheld transceiver that is loaded with features and is solidly built. There's lots to learn in order to get comfortable with its' many features, but the manual is well written, it includes numerous graphics, and combined with the manufacturer's website and dozens if not hundreds of YouTube reviews and tutorials, the learning process is not difficult. This Handheld Transceiver (HT) package provides two battery packs, cables, an air band antenna and other accessories, all at a very competitive price.
