Description of Radioddity GD 77S Handheld Commercial Programming

【 PRIVATE, 1024CH, DUAL BAND & DUAL TIME SLOT】- The more channels you have available on your radio, the less likely it is that anyone else will be using them; they're private and safe. Analog & Digital DMR Tier I & II, compatible with Motorola and other DMR radios; High / Low Power Settings (5W, 1W). 【COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT, DURABLE AND RUGGED】GD-77S is extremely lightweight, compact and durable, whereas others are larger and heavier, especially designed for outdoor activities such as climbing, hiking, driving, climbing, fishing and mountain biking. 【CRYSTAL CLEAR SOUND QUALITY】- GD-77S Ham Radio features the latest in digital technology to bring you crisp, clear sound when transmitting and receiving. Featuring 1024 channel capacity and high-fidelity audio, this DMR radio ensures that your team can maintain clear and organized communications. 【2200mAh HIGH CAPACITY BATTERY & TWO ANTENNAS】- It comes with 2 Antennas. The short one is portable to use and carry. The SMA-Male high gain antenna can efficiently boost the signal of your radio. Suitable for road trip, multi-day camping trips with no charging facilities and using it with long distance talking. 【EASY TO SET & SATISFACTION GUARANTEED WARRANTY】- The GD-77S Dual Band Radio was designed and because not everyone is a radio-expert, we really wanted to focus on providing an easier user experience! Without the LCD screen, the newly added button makes it easy to switch between channels, and the voice prompt function helps you know all the frequency details. This is especially helpful for vision-impaired hams.

Fits comfortably in your hand!

Great radio! I like the size and shape, feels good in the hand. The audio is clear, voice prompts are good. It has great battery life and I'm so glad they replaced the charging cable port on the base with a standard barrel plug! Using DMR without a screen is a bit difficult at first, but once you set it up and learn it, it's good! All in all I would buy it again and recommend it to friends.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • There are problems

Great DMR radio for everyday use. Fully equipped for money!

The lack of a display is not an impediment as my other DMR radio has a display but it's impossible to easily program anything on the fly so what's the point. This radio sounds solid, sounds great, has all the features and modes you need in a DMR. 16-channel selector switch, but you can switch zones with the side buttons. The radio talks with channel information when needed. Light. Comes with charger, extended antenna, headphones, etc. We will likely buy more of these devices in the future.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Not sure

Very good value for money but without a screen it was too much work.

I bought this radio because of the rave reviews for the regular GD-77. Without the screen, remembering which zone and channel I went to was too much work. It only says "Zone 1" and not "Analog VHF" or whatever I called it. It's possible to go into the channel settings, but it knocks out all sorts of data and doesn't give me what I need. Not to mention that the OpenGD77 software for this device absolutely sucks. The hardware is reliable! I was trying to save $20 for a feature I thought I could…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Socket required

Overall performance

What a great radio. The Radioddity GD-77S is a true analogue/digital radio. There is also a UHF/VHF radio. I've been using this unit for a few weeks and have removed my other DMR radio. Ease of use is an understatement for this radio. Once programmed, you have sixteen channels to choose from. They can be analogue, digital, VHF or UHF. Channels can be mixed. So my favorite analog and DMR repeaters are loaded and always handy at a radio station. The battery life is excellent. Duration 12 to 14…

Pros
  • CRYSTAL CLEAR SOUND QUALITY
Cons
  • Functionality

Reliable everyday radio, easy to use!

At first don't be discouraged by the idea that this radio has no display! Compensates for this comfort of an acoustic voice warning! Having both the GD-77 and RD-5R, I decided to try the GD-77S and have never been disappointed. The audio and signal report is excellent for analog and digital communication. The reception volume is loud, full of tone and not at all "tinny" like some others. Programming was easy and I found no problems exchanging code modules between radios when I got this 77S on…

  • EASY SETUP AND SATISFACTION GUARANTEE
