Things have been moving fast in the DMR world. Dual band DMR HT's (UHF/VHF, Analog/Digital (DMR))
are ruling the marketplace. There are six to eight, probably more, dual band DMR HT's to choose from.
I am a big advocate of buying something others in the club or nearby own, so you have a local support network.
Today my two suggestions are:
TYT UV380 with GPS @ $139
Grapevine Amateur Radio
I chose this radio primarily because I have several batteries, chargers and other bits for the MD380. The
UV380 uses the same accessories.
Anytone AT-UV878uv with GPS @ $209 & with Bluetooth @ $238
Some of our members have found these on Amazon or other places. Everyone I know that owns the
Anytone loves it. Jerry KE5JC, Barry K5BSM and several others have them and love them.
Main Trading Co (MTCradio) has sold the Radio with GPS @ $139 at swapmeets. Keep an eye out on
their website as they sell out quickly.
I hope this helps.
