Just finished my video and now am catching up . Good job.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Hi Dude , thanks for watching , just to let you know I often watch your Videos as I find you cover the bits other Videos leave out - Cheers from the UK .

[@HAMRADIODUDE]

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones thanks so much, Andre

[@philipdoherty2072]

Great video as always, Just got my H3 today a lovely little radio

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Always learning new features on this Radio , kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGLHd4eufNOJrMksi=h_EUs4--ntS-q1Kx

[@MaxReckless99]

love your videos. i learned alot from them. thank you so much. keep it going. cheers

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Thanks, will do!

[@2E0YKD]

Thank you for that video Andreas. At the beginning when you did the reset screen (PTT/Star/turn on). What should one select 1. Ham, 2.GMRS or 3.Normal?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

See what you have I like Ham

[@8bit-BlackCascadia]

Thanks for the great video. Nevertheless, I wanted to ask you what may cause the radio not showing up in COM connection while turned off prior to updating firmware. It does show connection while powered on though.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJSQqXaInJmMe9Usi=GNgoYuHUFIcQvjtE Turn radio off select start firmware then hold finger on PTT and turn radio on .

[@NicksStuff]

6:30 I'm not familiar with these. Is the step only used for the scan function? Or is is a problem to listen to 8.33 kHz frequencies? If it's just for the scan, where do you select the RF bandwidth? I'm an aviation enthusiast looking for a multi-purpose radio, not a Ham.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

This isn't the best device to choose try a Uniden 125 .

[@NicksStuff]

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones Thank you for your input. But I was more looking for a $30 radio rather than a $200 scanner...

[@ExploringWithJason]

Unrelated, did you get a chance to try the text messaging function on the quansheng joaquimorg firmware?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

No sorry maybe one day .

[@charlesr9110]

Do you plan to test power output, spurious emissions, battery capacity, charging times, and scanning speed?

[@mikesey1]

Don't worry about microwatt "spurious emissions" from a five watt radio. The American FCC raised that to limit the number of Chinese radios entering the US.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Loads have already done this.

[@charlesr9110]

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones I've had an eye on this for weeks. There are only two other significant videos on this radio. Ham radio dude from yesterday and gadget talk. Ham radio dude ran into issues and it is interesting to know if those are repeatable.

[@alanwallis2796]

Hi it would be good to hear the quality of the airband if it is a true AM detector ? and a comparison between the air band on the Quansheng and this TidRadio ? best regards Alan

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Not great on AIRBAND I will try firmware

[@alanwallis2796]

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones ok will be interesting to see if that makes any difference

What is the purpose of the numbers at the top of the screen (0 2 3 4 5)? I never see anything displayed there.

Signal Meter

When does it show anything? I haven't seen it in action yet, either on receive or during transmit. ​@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones

[@whipstitch8735]

Thanks, Andreas I purchased the h3, but I can't figure out how to make the keypad illuminate. Can't find it in the menu. Maybe I have a faulty radio ?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Oh turn off the lights in the room

[@timdietz350]

The only mild irritation is the lack of a dust cover for the charge USB port but there are free 3D print models available to make your own little plug.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Oh cool nice tip

[@bobinmontana777]

Although it is unknown, I have a couple of electronic devices using a waterproof, though exposed, USB C, they simply prevent water intrusion.

[@timdietz350]

@@bobinmontana777 It's less about water and more about dust and other particles. In some areas the desert dust can be alkaline and if you get enough caked in there it can short connections. caked on dust plus moisture makes it even more likely

[@Tsch6373]

Found some for sale on Amazon. Dust plug for usb-c charge port.

[@timdietz350]

@@Tsch6373 Yeah that cheap set is a great deal, had I seen that I wouldn't have gone through the trouble to print some.

I see advertised td h3 gmrs radio for sale . Is it the same as td h3 ham radio ? Can the gmrs version be unlocked, like the ham version ? Thanks

Does the Bluetooth only connect to app, or will it’s also connect to a Bluetooth earpiece?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Just programing but these days u can get a very cheap adapter :kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6i0l4CNZ9SVnck

[@mastador]

Can you show me how to set up a GMRS repeater on ham mode? Do I need an offset if I’m just listening? Sorry for the newbie questions.

[@vasilisfellouzis]

Nice videos! Could you make a video how to program pmr446 and frs please

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Just type the freq and save

[@vasilisfellouzis]

@HamTechRadioScannerDrones We're do i find the frequency for pmr446 and frs? Could i have the radios set on both frequencies? Because we live in the usa but we travel to Europe as well and we will be using them in both frequencies

do you actually ever use radio to talk to another ham?

All of the time .

very nice

Thanks

[@BarryHicks-l6y]

It appears the H3 is no longer available.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

No theres millions on aliexpress do a search

[@BarryHicks-l6y]

Not according to my research!

[@HAMRADIODUDE]

I bought one on Tidradios website just a week and a half ago. @@BarryHicks-l6y

[@londo776]

ffs just use chip to program the radio much more simple than playng around with BT on your phone

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Yes agree

[@NVRMTmotion]

I love it when traveling though. App shows local repeaters, and I just overwrite channels when I get to a new city. Far easier than trying to preload with a handful of cities in advance before you leave imo

[@robustreviews]

I’m just doing a review of this but I think downloading a random bit of Chinese software in to a device you carry around with you that requires a lot of permissions is _sus_ . Judging by the state of their website I’m keeping this firmly in an emulator for testing…

Hello, is it possible to block broadcasting on the 2-meter band?
