Review on TIDRADIO TD-F6 High Power Ham Radio Upgraded Version UV-5R Handheld Two Way Radio Bundle with Headset, Hand Mic, and Programming Cable (4 Pack) - Driver-Free Programming by Shedrick Roach

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent radio: Radios

Decent HT for the money. it is advertised as 8 watts, but the manual says 4 watts. I haven't run any performance tests, but it seems to be working. Very good, the construction seems pretty good. The battery is proprietary so no uv5r extended batteries are used. but I'm sure Tidradio will do it eventually, if not already. I've always been impressed that the standard battery pack includes a side charging port. Extended uv 5 r batteries I consider it a disservice that prevented the USB charging cable from being removed from the base to be used as a mobile charging cable

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Older model
