Review on Retevis RT80: Long Range Digital Walkie Talkie for Offroad Adventures - 999CH, Rechargeable, 1500mAh, 1 Pack by Mondreka Rosenhoover

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small and lightweight full-featured UHF DMR Peanut radio.

First impression is high quality HT. It's very small but still easy to get around. I was able to take it out of the box, put the battery in and program a local DMR Mototrbo Simplex group in 5 minutes. I never opened the manual. The sound is great and works with my collection of 2-pin add-on headsets and external mics. The CPS programming software is good and I'm looking into it now. All in all, a damn good thing for a DMR radio. Today I will be programming my callsign and running a local UHF DMR repeater. I will update that I learned more about this radio and some of its features.

Pros
  • 999 channels and 16 zones; 1000 contacts support more communication options; Easy connection of DMR and local layer 1 and 2 analog transceiver
Cons
  • Mostly ok, but...
