Review on πŸ“» QYT KT-8900D: Compact Dual Band Car Radio Mobile Transceiver with VHF UHF and Mini Design by Robert Arneson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Programmable with CHIRP! Very compact design. Loud noise!

Excellent compact mobile radio for beginners. Very clear display despite the small size. Loud noise. Excellent microphone. Many control options. CHIRP is programmable and includes a USB programming cable. Good programmable color selection for the display. Manual programming is a bit difficult to master, but doable. The instruction manual leaves a lot to be desired (check out the YouTube video instead) and the right rubber grip is easy to remove - you'll need some silicone to see if it's holding onto the shaft. Overall, for the price, this is a great deal for a very good basic compact mobile radio. I plan to buy another one or two for the other cars I have.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Little things
