I only lasted 4 minutes watching this over verbose man and started feeling suicidal, so I shut it off. Hopefully its nothing I can use.

If you think that anyone cares what you think, you have seriously overestimated your place in this world. #MYGA

@QtheminiQ 2 года назад

Sure. And it took you 13 minutes 15 seconds to write your DF comment

@thewatcher5271 2 года назад

Should've Kept Watching!

@porjotrucker62 2 года назад

Um very concerned for you and your suicide squad. I'm looking up a suicide 🔥 hot line no for you.

@QtheminiQ 2 года назад

I doubt you even lasted 4 minutes, from what I hear.

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the humor here delivered in absolute deadpan tones? Legend.

@jeremymcdonald6961 3 года назад

“You can see the Magicing happen right here. Flashy, flashy. Blinky, blinky. Progress, progress”. That piece of commentary gave me a good chuckle!!

@CAtripper 3 года назад

Randy, you've held us hostage for so long. Please, please, please make a video "why wideband is better than narrowband".

@mattlafleur1356 3 года назад

I expect the official "internet expert" answer is that wider is better...but I would not know as I am not an "internet expert"...

@JoshuaAnother-messenger 3 года назад

I would like you to make a video about the difference between wide band and narrow band I've only been operating a ham radio for about 6 months and your videos are my favorite please and thank you and have a blessed day 🙂

@d.b.cooper 3 года назад

This thing really is pretty cool. Was able to use it about a week and a half ago to program a Baofeng HT for a buddy of mine that is currently in a specialized care facility without his normal radio gear. It’s really nice to hear him on the radio again and he says he doesn’t feel so alone anymore. Excellent device for the money.

WELL DONE MY FELLOW HAM👍👍👍👍👍

@DD-Aerial-Photography 3 года назад

Oh boy! I'd love to see a video on the differences on wb and nb.

@stevenemert837 3 года назад

Me too! Googling it is so much work!

Here’s my vote for the narrowband and wide band video….

@nc4tn 3 года назад

Mine arrived in the mail today. What a miracle of modern technology indeed! Made my UV-82 sing.

@gearymiller7615 Год назад

Your videos make things simple I appreciate that. Love your style of humor.

@lisocampos8080 5 месяцев назад

Please don't ever stop making content like this.

@vitogriffin6575 3 года назад

I've never wanted to grab a dongle more than I wanna grab that dongle.. But what's even more incredible than that contraption is the fact that they didn't send you one. Before this video they probably sold 6 of these; by this time next week Tidradio will have a new Bentley off the sales of these things.

@shadowphantom2567 3 года назад

Yep, would like to see you do a wide band vs narrow band video.

@andrewyoung-n8ary 2 года назад

They have indeed updated the available radios. I just bought one for my Baofeng UV-S9 (driver is Radioddity UV5RX3). Same functionality as the “old” UV5R, except it also has 222 MHZ ham band.

@dmwil1 3 года назад

Yes, please make a video on wideband vs. narrow band.

@MidianNiles 3 года назад

Yes, I'd like to see you do a video covering the differences between wide and narrow bands.

@RossyBurns 3 года назад

Thanks for making this video. I been testing it for the UV82HP and giving feedback.

@ajc60803 3 года назад

I was going to ask if it worked on the 82HP (since I own several), and your post would seem to indicate that it does. Good. :~)

@djdonbentley2141 2 года назад

Your right about problems with the stock programming cables , mine has a completely different driver that usually doesn't work . This alone would be a good reason to have this device.

@sheldonfingerman7005 2 года назад

Just got mine. Very cool indeed. Thanks for the video that showed me how to use it. BTW, their customer service is excellent. One of my radios was not on the list and they answered my email in a day to resolve the problem.

@Texas1FlyBoy 3 года назад

8:27 The level of "perfection" / P.S. Not for me, but for all the sad hams, yeah... Video about wide band and narrow band.

@agrahazl Год назад

Your presentation skills are at a whole nother level! Love It and keep up the great work plz!

@duff8402 3 года назад

Lookin forward to that wide/narrow band video!

@TS-my9yq 3 года назад

I would like to see a video explaining the difference between Wide and Narrow band. Thanks in advance, your favorite viewer. 😁

@scottbillingsley3773 Год назад

Really enjoy your commentary. Always entertaining and informative. I'm new to this and you've enlightened me on numerous subjects. Thanks and keep up the great work.

@khanmac9223 3 года назад

Thank you for the effort. I would like to see a wide/narrow band comparison.

@michaelt.3805 3 года назад

Hey, Randy, thanks for a great review and demo. I am definitely going to touch myself after seeing this new device. Thanks again and have a great week.

@blackwolf340 3 года назад

This is exactly the product I've been looking for I've been having so many issues with the cable drivers to do this exact job I think I'm going to be ordering one today hopefully they keep updating the app to allow all the different radios

@tidradio 2 года назад

Yes we always do

@Uber_Net 3 года назад

Now _that_ is a fancy doohickey! I hope they get some more traction because I'd love to have one for my Wouxun handheld!

@N8TVTripper 2 года назад

I'm gonna order one of these when I get around to ordering the baofeng uvr

@concernedpatriot9314 3 года назад

Yes we want a video on why wide band is louder than narrow man ! Well you know what we the people want !

@applejacks971 2 года назад

The opening scene reminds me of Elvis concerts opening with Also sprach Zarathustra, well done!

@Dmpddiver 3 года назад

I have one and it seems to work great for the UV5R, really wish it would work for the BTech handhelds.

@chris.eskimo 2 года назад

Your closing statement....I couldn't agree more!!!!

@Rockbobster 3 года назад

Yes, that is a wonderful way to program your radio in the field, much better than giving your radio a hand job.

@trevin1691 3 года назад

Bought it....hope the next frequency counter you review is as affordable 😳.....

The first release of Windows was Windows 2 . Windows 1 wasn't released because it had allot of issues. You probably knew that and was nerd checking your audience and I fell for it. lol Love your videos. Alway fun to watch.

@TheNotaRubicon 3 года назад

Thanks for Watching! But, as expected with most comments on RU-vid, everything you have said is wrong, except for the fun to watch part.

@mrtestshoot 3 года назад

No true Windows 1 was released by Zenith as they did the drivers

@Kevin-gh1cn 3 года назад

I DO NOT in any way want to see a video about the differences between wide band and narrow band, but if you made one I'd watch it.

@MikieLAX 3 года назад

You can drive a wide SUV or a narrow subcompact car; they both drive fine on the superhiway. But it makes all the difference in the world if you try a parking lot with the space-lines drawn for Compact Cars! The same is true for radio: Narrow works well talking to another radio tuned to Narrow and likewise Wide works well talking to another radio tuned to Wide.

@CThor303 3 года назад

I was just about to look for a product to do exactly this. Brother, you rock.

@byrondaniels421 3 года назад

Thanks, Randy. It looks like I can use my iPhone 12 Pro to program a GMRS radio, at last. Since I retired from two careers and no longer had an IT support staff to fix Windows, I went into the Apple Orchard of products. That's why I haven't purchased a GMRS radio through you yet. I'll wait a bit for an updated version of this wonderful miracle device. The dongle makes me excited. In the meantime, Please do beat the competition and do clip of Wide vs. Narrow band. Please!

@RevGunn-jq3cq 3 года назад

Thanks, that is a pretty cool device. Now all they need to do is get rid of those dumb docking rechargers and go usb in any flavor, it would certainly be more convenient

@EverydayAdmin 3 года назад

Please yes. lol

@TobyCostaRica 3 года назад

They make usb chargers to DC plug for the bigger 3800 mah battery pack.

@squallywally 3 года назад

thanks Randy, This is very Cool. Ordered one with the affiliate link above. 👍

@davidelang 3 года назад

Is there any info on this device from a programmer point of view? It would be fantastic if support for this could be added to chirp (so that it could be used to support all the devices that chrip supports that use this interface)

@chuckles3079 3 года назад

I am new to hams and would love to see a video on narrowband and wide band video. Love your technical jargon too 'more Blinky's, more flasheys'. Keeps it interesting.

I want you to test out the Retevis GMRS repeater RT97. I would think that it would be perfect for field events. Make it a thing that the activator pick and deliver a good coverage installation the night before. If it works.

@jaybarr3307 3 года назад

What, Randy; no Swiss Army Knife in the pocket? Get with it, man! Very intriguing product, that. Yes, please make the Wide vs. Narrow band vid and quit teasing us about it, for Zenu's sake. But, please do say why there's the option. There must be a reason why someone actually wants to use narrow band; they wouldn't just leave it there for nostalgia.
