High quality DMR handheld radio

This is a great radio - the best value I've ever seen, a dual band analogue and DMR radio with 2 batteries and a programming cable. From what I've read it's basically a rebranded Anytone AT-D868UV. Here are some tests I ran: 146.52MHz Transmit Power: Low: 848mW Mid: 2.3W High: 5.5W Turbo: 7.8W 446.00MHz Transmit Power: Low: 848mW Average: 2.5VHigh: 5.4W Turbo: 7.1W Factory Antenna SWR on analyzer: 144MHz 1.6146MHz 2.2148MHz 3.1442MHz 1.6444MHz 1.9448MHz Rely on this FCC -Certification. Pros:โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Exclusive BTECH firmware (designed in the USA), dual slot DMR radio (Layer 1 and 2 compatible); 4,000 channels, 10,000 talkgroups, 200,000 contacts, large TFT color display, high/mid-high/mid-low/low power settings: (7W VHF/6W UHF, 5W, 2.5W, 1W)
Cons
  • I like it doesn't it's ok

Great DMR radio with nice extras.

I have the DMR has been using 6x2 for about two weeks and that has been my transition to radio. I have a Radioddity GD-77 for comparison and the 6x2 just throws it off. I know this might not be a fair comparison due to the difference in price and features of the two radios, but if I were to do it again I wouldn't buy the GD-77 and save myself $90. BTech's CPS software is very easy to use and I found the instructions that came with it very helpful should I get stuck at a stage. You can alsoโ€ฆ

Pros
  • DMR-6X2 allows channels to be programmed from the front panel, but software programming is recommended for advanced features (programming cable included), Windows PC required (free software available from baofengtech), programmable side buttons and upgradable firmware
Cons
  • -

Me and my son bought one of each. Unfortunately for me after a week or so the internal speaker stopped working while listening to the repeater. The radio wasn't dropped or anything, it was sitting in a cup holder in my self. "I'm listening to the local repeater right now." in the truck. The external speaker works fine when I connect the shoulder mic. I've hard reset the radio, flashed the firmware, flashed the plug code, all to no avail. I also noticed this on my son's radio the transmit audioโ€ฆ

Good, Reliable Portable Transceiver (HT) DMR (and FM)

The BTech DMR-6x2 offers excellent value for money (especially as it comes with two batteries) and offers all the essential DMR features in a physically robust package with good sound quality, reception and transmission. It's made by AnyTone on the same hardware as their 878, differing only in firmware and finish details - important because AnyTone is one of the highest quality Chinese manufacturers and is quite popular. The latter means that there are many users of this "family" of radiosโ€ฆ
