Yeasu FTM-6000R released within this last year. 2m / 70cm is a small radio ! Everything included. It has great receive coverage from 2m/70cm and RX 108-999 Mhz ! Let's open it up !
Solid information and overview of this radio. Great job on the video. Love the radio frequency coverage too, that's awesome. From this end though, that display makes my eyes bleed. Hard to believe that's what they went with in the 21st century. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they were just keeping it cheap and simple. Perhaps it looks better in real life.
Thanks for watching and the complements ! I was surprised that this didn't come with a backlight color option... Even the FT-857D did way back when ! It does seem to have a market for it. Good build quality like a public safety radio.
@@EricTechstuffs Currently 230 USD and the MARS mod makes it hard to resist, but the screen is keeping me away. Glad to know the build quality is good. Even stock, the frequency coverage is so amazing. You have really great content on your channel, thank you.
Thats a useful rig for scanning the 800mhz the police here and such nice little rig also 440 mhz. That would be cool to mount the head on the bench and hide the transmitter underneath the bench. Cool presentation 👍💯⚛
Thanks. I never really go on 2m or 440 much. Do like HF more. Most public safety in my state are on a state wide trunking system with most digital encrypted. Had to get rid of the old radio shack triple trunking scanners. This will fit the bill to see what is left analog around me !
It's pretty nice, but I cannot use the Extended RX features in my area. Everything is trunked or digital :( the 70cm and 2 m repeaters are real quiet here too.
You should be able too. I no longer have this radio. I never connected BT to it. But when two items are in pairing mode it should find eat other. Sorry I couldn't be of more help ! 73
