Handheld Deluxe VHF/UHF Dualband Amateur Radio 2M/440 with Twin Display TH-UVF1 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the TYT UVF1 FM Transceiver about 45 days ago.I am new to amateur radio so I didn't want to spend $400 for a dual-band HT.The UVF1 performs well and for the money it is an excellent buy.I have been getting good signal reports on most repeaters in the area.
Pros-
The price is awesome.
Dual-band and Dual display.
Comes with cable and software
Easy to switch between programmed channels and ad-hoc frequency entry.
You can listen to any frequency from 87-108Mhz FM Broadcast
Receives 136-174Mhz & 390-520Mhz.
Transmits 144-148Mhz & 430-450Mhz. 5W/4W output w/1W low setting.
Drop-in Charger.

Cons-
You will need the cable and software to get to all the options.
The software is pretty flaky. It crashes if you try to copy and paste, so don't try it without saving your configuration so far.
The manual is... well, not wonderful.Some of the features are not explained, just on or off.

All in all... This is an inexpensive entry radio that performs very well.

I am keeping mine.
