I don’t care how cheap Amazon gets on Ham equipment. I will pay more at HRO or another brick and mortar store that I can walk into and get advice and help. Promoting amazon is hurting the hobby.

[@Radi0activeBen]

Consider all of the people who wouldn't be in the hobby at all of it weren't for cheap radios.

[@iowahank1]

Well most of what is on sale at Amazon isn't available at "brick and mortar" stores. In addition, you need to be lucky enough to have a store close to you.

[@billcedarheath387]

Not sound advice for people who want to get into Ham but don’t have a local store to go to. Think about how many people Amazon got into the hobby that had no local options. It isn’t hurting the hobby. Amazon got me into it. Your theory is purely anecdotal.

[@snowhack8903]

Lucky you, having a store anywhere near you. I would not be in this hobby at all if it weren't for fast easy access to it, provided by Amazon.

[@nevadabadger7925]

So, that is what a “Sad Ham” is.

[@sbpb28314]

The naysayers are welcome to their opinion, but it's just that and it doesn't make them right. Thank you for a nice summary of Amazon ham radio items I might be interested in, that also better fit my budget than my various HRO, DX Eng and Gigaparts purchases.

[@HamRadioDX]

Thanks! Anyone is free to purchase or not purchase, I think there’s plenty of great products out there 👍

[@moojuiceuk]

I have an RT95 and it's a very good radio, nice clean sound. You can program it without a PC if you want and it's not tooo hard to do. I use it on a bench with a 12v battery and attached to a GP93 colinear on the roof of the house.

[@saltydawg8988]

I grabbed the RT-95 a week or so ago, and love it. Transmits pretty clean, and haven’t had issues. If you unlock the extra channels you’ll have to reprogram it though. Ran into that yesterday.

[@bendeleted9155]

I picked one up a few months ago and if you unlock it to mode 02, it will accept all of the other services' freqs that you would like to be able to receive and even talk to in an emergency. My shack is set up for emmcom and the RT-95 is scanning for the radios people have lying around in the U.S; FRS/GMRS/MURS/Marine, the old color dot and star frequencies, local utilities, etc. Very useful and only $100.

[@bendeleted9155]

​@@saltydawg8988yes, mine came with 600kHz offsets on every channel I created after I unlocked it. At least it shows you the offset when you key up.

[@bikeham]

I've had two chinese radios, one was the RT95 - it was clobbered by intermodulation distortion about 20% of the time. I found it unusable, even my cheap chinese HHs had no problem with the same antenna. Has anyone else had the same problem, or did I get a knock off of a knock off?

[@BackcountryGearShed]

Great video! I don't know why you get negative comments on your Amazon videos. The reality is they are undoubtedly one of the largest purveyors of Ham Radio equipment in the world. I appreciate you sharing your favorite deals with us.

[@HamRadioDX]

I get negative comments on almost every video I post, I guess people just love to be that way. Thanks for your comment though! 👍

Hello from Texas, USA! Thanks for the list. I ordered the poor man’s tiny SA. I am wanting to see what impact some of the solar panels I am investigating along with the MPPT or other inverters do to my radio environment. 73 de HI5HXM

[@LatitudeSky]

Picked up a two-pack of Retevis RT-85 handhelds for $19 after $10 coupon. Got it because my UV5R was falling apart and I have a couple Retevis/TYT DMR radios. Wish I had known the RT-85 is so bloody user unfriendly compared to the Baofeng.

[@Mandarin110631]

thank you for this! picked up a couple things on your store 🙂

[@HamRadioDX]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@azarellediaz4892]

These “Special sale days” will impress me when they offer me things I’ve been looking at at a reduced price. Something like a base station antenna, a decent mobile antenna, true brand accessories like speakers or microphones, UHF/SMA connectors. On these findings the only thing with a big name is a chinisium knockoff microphone branded Yaesu but it’s pure junk. I bought one and sent it back the next day. You can buy a Tri-Band mobile unit, but not a Tri-Band mobile or base antenna, I wonder if anyone makes one. Amazon is becoming another Wise or Temu, all it does is feed dollars to China.

[@stevendodd6477]

A lot of those deals you are sharing also have money off coupons just below the price some of them were over 30 dollars from the few that I saw but if you just check the box it's even cheaper

[@HamRadioDX]

That’s right!

[@LeeMcc_KI5YPR]

The Retevis RA25 can be set to different standards, GMRS, US Ham, Australia. But changing modes deletes any programming so ham and GMRS transmit do not co-exist

[@danialphaomega]

This is ASMR for RF 🤓

[@matthewnasholm]

Picked up the triband antenna. Thx.

[@johnk8091]

Nope, the IC-7300 uses the new 4 pin molex not the older 6 pin molex. That power cable you are showing is for almost all HF rigs prior to 2010, like TS-440, TS-430, FT-890, FT-990, IC-751 etc etc

I have bought those replacement Yaesu mobile microphones before. Some work properly and some do NOT! If you are buying one as a spare, be sure to test out all the functions, to ensure you have a good one!

[@garryharrison3831]

I bought a couple, curly lead turned into dust within two years leaving wires exposed.

[@webanon]

Hayden. Slightly off topic, but maybe check out battery spot welders. I'm in the process of rebuilding a battery pack for a set of clippers, but they're also useful for building smaller ham radio battery packs... I am wondering if you have any experience with a particular unit?

[@HamRadioDX]

I’m not familiar with battery spot welders sorry, but sounds like an intriguing project. Is that to weld like 18650 batteries?

[@webanon]

@@HamRadioDX Yeah, you're on track there. I've clearly consumed too many battery pack construction videos on KZbin... 😆

Tiny Sa Ultra current price in Europe is 151 euro at recognized and trusted seller Eleshop. I have bought mine a year ago or so for about 159 euro as I recall. The deal on Amazon is $ 191 which is 174 euro! I see one at R&L electronics in USA for $ 140! I am not so familiar with the prizes outside EU but 191 dollar sounds no deal to me.

Hey Hayden, does the crimper do those ones that have 2 tabs that when doing manually you have to trim a bit off one, then fold each over the wire and clamp down, ends up ugly!!??

[@HamRadioDX]

Yes, I'm pretty sure it does. Those tabs sit in the grooves of the crimper and then folds them over perfectly... at least the Anderson's that I've crimped it does that on... but it might vary depending on the connector. I hope that all makes sense?

[@Number4lead]

What country are you in? Get some GMRS radios, decide amongst yourselves on a channel to use, preferably one with the most power allowed. Set everybody's radios to the same CTCSS tones and your set. If theirs any distance beyond 5 miles you will want to use external antennas up on a roof, and will need radios capable of hooking an external antenna cable to it. MANY ON THE MARKET HAVE REMOVABLE ANTENNAS. if you need more distance buy rigs that put out more watts. Also you can buy repeaters, cheap simplex repeaters or more expensive real time duplex repeaters.

I set up a basic GMRS repeater with 2 uv5r and with an ebay special 50w amp and some cheap used deep cycling batteries but LiFo seems better, but any ways i uses 2 cheap base station 462mhz antennas with a 100w PV to keep it charged up and set up on a hill in the AZ desert up a 30-40' old abandoned miners tower and use it for off-roading since there zero cellphone service and i frequent this area a lot heck i can ping that home made repeater from 30 miles away in some days even better everything cost me less than $200 like 3yrs ago, but some materials i had to borrowed for tuning and setting up or used some other people brains much smarter than i Best of luck😊

And also forgot to mention you could pay like 50 bucks for a gmrs license and it covers your family for life and you can ask nicely to other GMRS repeater owners who will let you use it or pay a small fee a month for use just saying

Bad idea promoting radios sold on Amazon. Yes, I prefer the "high end" radios, as you know. Too many cheap & nasty radios out there being sold by Temu, Amazon, & other online stores. If I have a problem with my gear, I'll ring the seller during business hours, & ask him. You being a ham radio operator in Australia, SHOULD be promoting AUSTRALIAN businesses that sell ham radio equipment. I buy from Strictly Ham in Melbourne. I've never had an issue. Ross has always treated me well. Every ham radio I own was bought from him, & his service has been brilliant. With Amazon, they really should not be selling anything to do with ham radio.

@@jesperwall839 stop talking crap. Most local dealers sell online through their business online ordering system, which is how I bought, & still buy my equipment, but I deal direct with the local dealer, not Amazon.
