Tytera and TYT

I've been using TYT more than Tytera, so I'm a head of the game. :

"Tytera announced plans this week to change the brand name on their line of two way radios from Tytera to TYT next month. According to an official spokesperson from Tytera, starting May 2016 the company will begin to replace the Tytera brand on their entire product line with the name TYT."

In fact, I never created a Tytera tag and have just been using TYT.

Let's just ask all the bad guys to comply.

"We would prefer not to have any guns on campus," DiPietro said.

No Baofeng Policy

N4NJJ - No Baofeng Policy:

"In order to provide the best experience for all operators, our repeater system has a zero tolerance for Baofeng, Wouxon, Retevis, etc. radios. These portables do not have the ability to perform pre-emphasis/de-emphasis, which results in below acceptable audio levels. Users to the system are encouraged to operate a commercial and/or public safety grade portable or mobile. Users are also encouraged to use amateur grade gear."

And N4NJJ's open letter about the policy.
