The HP682 (full screen & keypad) is $632.50 and the HP602 is $525.00. We offer discounts on group orders as well as additional programming services. Yes the discount on 50 radios is great than the discount for 10 radios. Send an email to info@rangelandcomms.com and we can put a quote together for you.
I would suggest turning off some of the useless beeps that the radios makes such as the "Call End" tone and maybe the "Voice End Tone" if it's enabled. I would have also added a couple different talk permit tones to them, like the Nextel PTT sound, Motorola XTS, MotoTRBO and enabled the settings in the menu so each user could change the sound on the fly depending on which one they like the best. I have an HP782 and I love it. Those are just some of the customization I have done on mine.
All depends on line of site (LOS) to the repeaters antenna. There are many repeaters that can be hit from 40+ miles away. If this repeater was up on a Mountain top with good LOS in all directions you could probably hit it from 35+ miles away. If you had down in a valley, not so much. If the placement where to only get you 1 mile of range then its probably not a good placement.
In my experience Hytera typically releases UHF versions first then follows up with VHF shortly after. This has been the case with many H series products. I expect a VHF version will be released. Generally the commercial radio manufactures do not deal direct to consumer you typically have to go through a dealer and I can assure you we are not hard to deal with.
Compared to what? Repeaters are not cheap but the price of the HR652 is well within industry standards for a commercial DMR repeater. A Motorola SLR5700 comes in at around 3,300, A Hytera HR1065 comes in at around 3,100. The Motorola SLR1000, which is likely the most comparable, comes in at around 3,300 and is only 10 watts. The Hytera HR652 starts at around 2,200 with is about 1k less than any of the aforementioned DMR repeaters.
Yes. You would use the included DC wire harness and wire it to a solar charge controller and then into the panel. We could set one up for you like that.
@@peterdeyanov5056 Fair enough. DMR provides improved audio quality. In my experience most people prefer the audio quality provided by DMR compared to analog. That being said some think it sounds robotic and don't like that.
@@Rangeland Ha ha, improved audio quality. Nevermind. OK, man, great video. Repeater is portable, mobile, may be it's useful. We have a few reflectors, that works all modes. No need to bring repeater with me.
@@peterdeyanov5056 Digital audio is horrible. Robotic is the least we can say. Only recent digital units (specially TETRA HD and recent P25) will be aceptable. GE and Motorola that conceived MASTR and similar units would die if they had to compare audios... Remember those VHF low band with their great speaker ? What a sound !!!!!
А можете написать полное название комплекта ретронслятора? Я бы купил его у Вас, но Вы наверное не отправите его в Россию. Знаю, есть компании которые занимаются отправкой товаров из США. Буду искать.
The DMR digital protocol uses the radio spectrum more efficiently. A DMR radio splits a frequency into two time slots. This means that two conversations can occur on a channel at once. For example let's say a warehouse has a single licensed frequency to work with. With analog their radio system could only support one conversation at a time. They could use CTCSS tones to separate different talk groups but still only one conversation could he had on the frequency at a time. Now let's say the warehouse has DMR radios. Now they can have one talk group like "shipping and receiving" assigned to time slot 1 and another talk group such as "maintenance" on time slot 2. Now both groups can use the frequency at the same time. Hytera radios can also do something called Pseudo Trunking. When the radios are set to Pseudo Trunk instead of time slot 1 or 2 the radio will listen to both time slots and use whichever time slot is available. This is helpful when you have more than two talk groups that need to share a frequency. Let's say you have 4 talk groups but it is unlikely that more than 2 talk groups would need to use the frequency at any given time. In this case, you assign all of the talk groups to Pseudo Trunk and any 2 of the 4 groups can use the frequency at a given time.
@@itrstt66 Absolutely! it is also worth noting that this repeater can operate in analog mode as well. Programing DMR is a bit more complex but not much once you know what you are doing. In most cases we send these out with the handheld radios and we configure everything for the end user. Using DMR mode also gives you the ability to do encryption, text messaging, and direct calling. I will be doing a video on DMR programing in the near future.
@@itrstt66 All of the Hytera H series radios including this repeater come with basic encryption included with is ARC40 encryption. You can upgrade to AES-256. However, you do not need the AES upgrade to pass AES with the repeater and this is typically the case with DMR repeaters. If you want to use the repeater as a base station and want to transmit with AES from the repeater then you need the AES software license. However, if you have handhelds with AES the repeater will pass the signals with or without encryption without a the software upgrade. Encryption and decryption all happens on the user radios.
Depends on how you configure it. The battery and duplexer both add to the cost. The optional battery is expensive but it is proprietary and it's also 14V. You could save some money by using a cheap duplexer about $200 and if you need a battery you could also buy a 3rd party 12V battery to save some money. Bioenno power makes really great batteries.
Just the bare repeater without nothing else $2350. Add the duplexer,power adapter and battery pack it will go up to $5000+ depending on options. A bit high up there for a dual mode repeater. I guess it has it's place but it's more of a luxury item.
@@TheAlexd51 Its defiantly not cheap and I do wish it was offered from Hytera as a complete package rather than each component separately. Although I suppose some users may not need the battery and others may not need the duplexer. That being said, good quality commercial DMR equipment is generally not cheap. The HR652 pricing is normal when compared to other similar options. The HR652 repeater is about 2,300, a Hytera HR1062 (server rack 50w repeater) starts at around 3,100 and the Motorola SLR 5700 starts at about 3,300. The most similar comparison would likely be the Motorola SLR1000 which is a portable 10w repeater with optional internal duplexer and that starts at about 3,700 without a duplexer. So if compared to the SLR1000 you are getting an additional 15w of power and it's over 1k cheaper. All that being said, I do agree that the HR652 is not cheap but I do think it is well within the bounds of typical commercial DMR pricing.
Interesting information. On UHF frequencies I have used two antennas with a vertical separation of AT LEAST 20 feet between the top of the Tx antenna and the bottom of the RX antenna. Receive is on the top for maximum sensitivity to weak signals. Horizontal separation is useless on any frequency at any distance. You will suffer receiver desense.
@@RangelandI don't think that was his point. His point was that you were making useless comparisons against the Baofeng UV5R. You should be a politician!!😆
the boafeng is not a toy. no more a toy than any other radio. i have 1000 dollar motorolas and i have boafengs. they both do what they both do which is communicate with others over the air. this video is disingenuous. @@Rangeland
Interesting... We've got a lot of customers who've upgraded their comms from BaoFeng due to it's unreliability, lack of enhanced encryption, poor audio and cheap build quality. It seems like it's capable enough for your needs. When you're ready to upgrade, let us know and we'll help you figure out a setup that works for you.
The encryption thing just gets me because it’s almost certainly so far beyond the rest of our skill sets. Like what enemy is encrypted comms really going to make the difference against?
While these radios can be programmed to use those frequencies (HAM, GMRS & MURS), the frequencies we ship our radios with are business itinerate frequencies. Encryption can be toggled on and off on the radio by thee user.
@@Rangeland That is wrong baufeng DM-1701 has encrytion. It's twodifferent radios for two different markets you cannot possible compare those to radio with each others. however the commercial Radio you have there in your left hand is stronger encryption then the analog uv5r that has nothing.
