DB40-G GMRS Mobile Transceiver. Let's Go GMRS Mobile!

The Radioddity DB40-G mobile radio is a 40 watt GMRS mobile rig that handles the basic GMRS functions very well. It doesn’t have a bunch of bells and whistles but when it comes to the things most mobile users want, it does those things and does them well. If you’re looking for a GMRS base station or a vehicle-mounted GMRS rig for your off-roading adventures or work truck, you need to give the DB40-G a look.

You can now name your channels in the programing software as of yesterday.

Cool. Thanks for sharing.

I bought the DB40G and while setting up my tones somehow I erased everything and don’t know how to get the gmrs channels back in. Can you help me with this issue? Thanks.

Not games channels, I meant GMRS

[@markpelletier6833]

This radio is a hard pass, I’m extremely disappointed because I have the DB20G and it’s a great, feature packed radio that WILL transmit and receive on 2M-440 as well as GMRS making it truly useful for a mobile. And the DB20 works with CHIRP, and there’s no limit to the customization. When I heard they were releasing this, I was set to jump on one until I saw the reviews, and it’s somewhat astonishing to me that Radioddity decided to release this placebo of a radio.

Try opening the CPS and then write to the radio. Most of the time you'd first read, but in this case, write first.

@@GadgetTalk4U CPS ?

@@randyhuggins3628 Sorry, download the customer programming software from radioddity. Install it on a Windows computer. Use the programming cable to upload the channels into the radio. I show it in the video. I also have a more general video on my channel about using a CPS to program radios.
