Excellent, Dam Skippy ! Learned a lot thank you ! Lone Bear !

[@waylonk2453]

The built-in camera and send ability is amazing! Never seen that before

[@LiveFree-pk8ej]

@@waylonk2453 IT helps explain the price tag

[@nickl3872]

Thank you just subscribed. I think we think alike in many ways

[@nickl3872]

I just got a UV9R because its supposed to be waterproof, testing it now

[@davep6977]

I believe for most of these functions you need a up and running repeater with internet. The heading is great if you did all this before the storm hit

[@Mr.NiceGuy80]

We've been doing emergency comms for western NC with zero power or internet on ham radio. You only need internet for digital modes. Echolink, all-star, d star, fusion.

@davep6977 NO repeater needed to ping location. If you have comms in range. That's is where the range transponder works well to keep you in range. With a C4FM repeater you will get better range. As well the radio in my truck is compatible with the handheld and has a built it crossband repeater. Thanks for watching hope you enjoyed

What's the model number of that high gain antenna ?

[@LiveFree-pk8ej]

@@richardpope9985 I believe it's the TC-79 gooseneck blade antenna. I got it from Amazon for about 30 bucks Canadian

[@ppipowerclass]

It seems like the biggest downfall is the price.

[@LiveFree-pk8ej]

@ppipowerclass Yes but if you let the cheap ones take all the risks. They do perform miracles. Thanks for watching and making a comment hope you enjoyed

[@jeremyplante7553]

Price is reasonable to the alternative of not communicating!!!!

[@Mr.NiceGuy80]

Buy once, cry once. Communication when all else fails is priceless.
