CB will never die. No sad hams on it trying to police it.

Worked, thank you so much!

Can anyone let me know if this is a good radio to use in the UK ??

Excellent short and clear explanation!!

thank you!

Yes Betty Ford (the first mama) and during the campaign Channel 12 was the official campaign channel for Gerald Ford

Second😂

Great little video… Thanks! I try to never lend out expensive test gear to friends after I got back my HP/Agilent portable SA with a broken dc “barrel” type 5.5x2.5 mm connector. It cost more to have repairs made and for it to be recalibrated … Than a new entire Rigol SA w/TG. So, I bought one of them and assembled a “kit” with everything packed in a Pelican case. (UniDapt adapter kit / TeleWave 44 “no slug” watt meter, dummy loads up to 350w. and all sorts of pre-made RG400 cable assemblies) Now I can send the here to watch your video instead of getting stuck with multiple phone calls from my “I wanna get a GMRS repeater on the air and am too cheap to pay a shop to tune a duplexer” LOL

In this day and age I'll rather have a CB radio than not have one!

Still busy in the UK on UKFM band and busy on the USB 27.555.

trying to find a decent base station to get into it.

Can i use this radio in frequency 456.325 or 456.825?

you realy need to talk about a 12 year old radio that is a wast of time .

I'm having an issue with the TYT-MD-UV390-Plus-Programming-Software-v2.34, all the menu characters are gibberish.. not English and basically illegible. v2.41 loads and looks fine, with readable English menus.. but is not useful for the TYT-MD-UV390-Plus ?

what the hell is an "ANTAANNA"?

CB (11 meter) is the original "social media" ! I use CB radios and 2 meter radios. • My favorite CB radio is the Cobra 148GTL made in the Philippines. • My favorite 2 meter radio is the Yaesu FT-60R made in Japan. The Cobra 148GTL radio CB and UNIDEN Grant XL radio CB currently outperforms most of the newer CB radios manufactured in the 21st century.

Very similar to what the Marines call "Re-Trans" setup. But it used 2 separate antennas. One for transmit and the other for receive. Would that be possible for 2 KG-1000 radios in repeater mode? Use 2 antennas instead of a duplexer?

Thank you Dave! Very good information, addressed my issue precisely. Jeff in Colorado

I have a question. I'm currently using the TYT MD UV 380 as running the open GD77 firmware. My question is, with the 390 plus can I program the radio from the front.? I mean right out of the box?

What happens when you write a AES key to a non-plus uv390 ? I've seen Ukrainians load AES key in non-plus version.

The repeater owner might own the repeater, but no one owns the frequencies!

I live in Franklin Wisconsin do they have repeaters for grms?

My hobbies are painting pictures 🖼 and listening to shortwave and ssb iam thinking about getting my Grms license my friend

The ham license is hard grms is easy to get the grms license my friend

Ham Radios are very expensive than grms not expensive my friend

People like the Channels being preset. Some UHF radios will have Channel's preprogrammed per nation or you can edit them, but it's too much "data" & tinkering, for many. They just want channel number, and U/L SB. It would be nice if China brought out a super cheap CB handheld with AM/FM and SSB. They'd probably need a custom chipset to bring this about. Then you could see resurgence with young people to chat in the locality.

Thank you for the superb video! Very well explained.

I ❤You😂

I really miss the days of CB. even in the 90s it was great. I could yell our an audio at anytime of day and get a response from people I talk with. I am going to put up my Imax 2k at home and set up my cb again. It was so much fun and I never liked ham. Just need to find people around you and what channel the local people play on

Believe me from experience trying to build this repeater You're way better off buying a good commercial repeater and it made in America duplexer

Cq cq cq smoky is hidin' behind a tree on route 66!

How do you pair the Bluetooth mic

Chirp?

I just received mine, and am having trouble trying to program frequencies. The manual isn't that easy to follow.

Nice video. Couple things I would like an answer to: 1) does it matter which TX/RX is tuned to TX or RX? I see them marked as HIGH and LOW. 2) this may be part of question 1, but the internal coils are different. Why? if Question 1 Matters what happens if you tune them backwards? Which I can see being done easily because my radio TX Freq. and the repeater TX freq. are not the Same.

How do I get the frequencies?

I will not be getting a jerry. I have 3 randy am/fm

President really really let me down . Very disappointed. I was hoping to see the jerry come out and be ssb model. I do not care about the price.

Went to website to buy one, out of stock.

As a ham radio operator who got his start on CB I just want to remind everyone that 11 meters was handed over by the ham radio community to be used by others, (citizens) who don't care to get into the ham radio hobby. 11 meters should always be open for use and actually I would love to see all the boot leggers get tired of the band and leave. Too many criminals out there using CB for all kinds of illegal activities. And yes. I call them criminals. They are breaking the law. They should be arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced. And remember, when the FCC does have the time to prosecute someone, the fines are often reaching $10k and more. Some even get jail time. Yep I'd love to see all the bad people leave CB.

Midland is way behind the curve with this radio. With a non-removable antenna, 2.5 W is a joke. Good luck to you (not you, but in general) trying to hit a repeater from a few miles away. If you want simple, I'd rather spend extra $10 and get a pair of KG-805Gs. What a sweet little radio the 805 is!

I ordered this radio and so far very happy with its performance. I ordered a mic/speaker for it on Amazon because I could not find one on your business page. I downloaded and installed the programming to my win10 desktop, and bought a USB C cable. I can't get the V2 software to communicate with the radio. Keep getting COM port failure. The default is COM1. I tried up to com six to no avail. Does anyone have an idea what I may try next? Thanks & Cheers from Louisiana.

Blame Mark Sherman aka mud duck hard drive 163 along with cornbread 226 walkie talkie jockey 21 in wild West old man in the garage and the rest of the clowns on19.

I've been using two-way radios since the early 1990s.I think General Electric or Ericsons used the term, Channel Guard referring to CTCSS and DTCSS

I've had a CB radio in my vehicles for at least 20 years. I just replaced it with a GMRS. After all those years I seldom hear any traffic on 19 and it's on all the time I'm in my vehicle. If I do a scan of all the channels I only hear someone yelling "Ye Haw" or some other useless information. Even when on the interstate and driving by a Pilot or Flying J I don't hear much traffic on the CB. Not sure that GMRS is much better but I do hear more useful conversation on it. I also run a ham mobile but there's no road traffic on the ham.

Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the point of these "premier" videos? I already heard the podcast, so it's not a live stream. It's like saying "here's a video that's finished and uploaded, we'll add it to your feed, but you don't get to watch it until we say so!"

I need the BGM that was used in this video

How to program frequency manually ?

The radios available is not the issue. Fire up the ole Browning Eagle and see how many transmissions you get per hour. Flip around the channels other than 19. 😅
