Lift Conditions on PMR-446 - France to East Yorkshire, UK - 8 October 2023 - Tropo on UHF #shorts
Short clip of France being received on PMR-446, Channel 11 on a handheld radio at 6pm DST UK Time. France to East Yorkshire, UK. There is a lift on the UHF PMR 446 Band caused by tropospheric ducting. This is a phenomenon that occurs mainly during the autumn season due to warm and cold air meeting and causing something called ducting to occur and this makes radio signals travel much further than they normally would do. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OazJskStzVU

The Baofeng UV-13 Pro is the latest generation in the line of budget two way radios from China. This latest model has 999 memories and a claimed 10 watts output - but is this really true? The Chinese have a reputation for over stating output power in their marketing literature and many other radios fall short of the claimed spec. We test one out, putting it through its paces both on the test meter and with a on air live test.

The Surecom SW33 Plus is a SWR and Power Meter specifically designed for use with handheld radios. Covering from 125-525 MHz it's the easiest way to check how efficient your handheld antenna is working but does it really work and is it worth the money?

Just a short video I made to show the software required to programme the KSUN KSM3 two way radios. This software is hard to find and doesn't currently appear on the KSUN website so I've provided a link for anyone who needs this below:
https://reviews.transmission1.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/KSUN_KSM3.zip
My particular radios needed a password in order to program them with the software. If yours asks for a password you can try: 753951.
It will probably also work with the M1 and M2 variants of this radio but haven't confirmed this. If anyone knows of any better or alternative software that can programme these radios then please leave a comment below!
Hope this helps someone!

TM1 Reviews the new Baofeng GT-5TP Dual Band Two Way Radio.
The new Baofeng GT-5TP is yet another radio from the successful budget Chinese radio manufacturer. This latest revision is based on the UV-82HP model with some cosmetic improvements. Does it meet the claims on the box and is it worth buying for the modest price of around 39.99 euros (£32.99) including delivery?
Power output claims to be up to 8 watts and three power levels are adjustable from the radio and using software such as CHIRP.
The radio on test here was supplied by a company called NextBigThink on eBay which seems to be the only way to pick this one up at the moment.
In Part 2 we test the radio out and about on the air.
Enjoy!
