To put this in perspective: I never saw one of the popular UV-5R's with the same problem, while these TYT's are extremely rare.<br /><br />There's one on the bench right now, but I'm afraid this one is beyond repair. I might take a few pics of the PCB and post them.<br /><br />HansHans PD0AChttp://hamgear.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-50507612021491541342013-03-21T23:22:00.002-04:002013-03-21T23:22:00.002-04:00Brick, no reason to be apologetic at all.
I think ...Brick, no reason to be apologetic at all.<br />I think Ed is probably a great guy, (I don't know him personally).<br />I apologize if I seem too harsh.<br />All I was trying to do is merely suggesting that Ed should ask them for some basic things that were issues mentioned by people here and on Hans'es blog.<br /><br />If you remember, we where talking before with the guy from Radio-Mart, that said he got the TYT UV-F9 to do 3 Watts on 222 MHz, I was really looking forward to get that, and maybe Ed can get it, who knows.<br /><br />All I care about is to make sure we, the consumers are being heard.<br /><br />Nate.

His efforts were invaluable as we were all learning about the KG-UVD1P.Brick O'Lorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01169151187304356607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-79784428360026170762013-03-21T20:49:10.359-04:002013-03-21T20:49:10.359-04:00Some thoughts…

If any of them were trivial, all the Chinese manufacturers would be doing them.<br /><br />My company has two plants in China and (excluding our other US plant) I prefer working with them over all the other locations - Mexico, Europe, Brazil, etc. But it is still hard.<br /><br />I agree that everyone would like better radios with better features, but clearly there is a market for these radios as is. People like saving money and are putting up with the shortcomings.<br /><br />(I know I sound like an apologist for Ed, so let me clarify my relationship with him. I bought a radio from him before he actually had a site where you could place an order. We traded e-mails late on a Friday and he got my stuff shipped on Saturday for a Monday delivery. I’ve since then bought a small accessory. And now, he’s been kind enough to answer my questions about his plans/radios.)<br /><br />Watch for more updates...Brick O'Lorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01169151187304356607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-10609516164615676812013-03-21T17:49:29.644-04:002013-03-21T17:49:29.644-04:00Not to dis-respect Ed...
