Review on Radioddity GD 77 Digital Channels Programming by Carlos Damain

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Programming was pretty easy

Finally a dual band FM and DMR radio! Programming was pretty easy. It took less than an hour and I'm new to DMR. I liked the expert mode option for programming. In my hand the GD-77 feels solid and durable, it looks very well built. The buttons are easy to press and just the right size for a man with big hands. The belt clip is beautiful, durable and spring loaded. I love the charge indicator light, it's really reassuring! Again, I am impressed with the battery life of the Radioddity products. Very stable performance for 2 days of constant use. I managed to hit a few repeaters near me, both DMR and analog. This radio has good analog performance, but the antenna works better on UHF than VHF, but it's not too bad. In some cases you may have to go outside with a DMR on a rubber ducky, but this depends on your region. I connected to my base antenna and everything was stable. The sound is clear and rich for both DMR and analog. Great radio for the price. I'm considering buying another one!
