  1. You really cannot complain for a tenner a throw. Not sure how much help they would be in a breakdown around my neck of the woods but in remote areas as you say better than nothing.

  2. Thanks for sharing.  You know I grew up with The Smiths which kinda expressed Manchester as being , well a bit industrial and gloomy so nice to see some countryside.  Nearest large transmitter to me is the Brookmans Park BBC array.  As I child I used to like to look out of my bedroom window and stare at the red aircraft lights in the distance.

  3. I kinda like it.  Its the sort of radio Apple would produce if they did PMR.

  4. Wow that is a proper HUGE tower ! any idea when it was built ?   I'd love to go inside up to that viewing platform.

  5. How many people will buy on the brand name itself.  Radio is most likely fine.

  6. +Ringway Manchester Wow you did really well for £15 working, nice one mate.

  7. Think I prefer the binatone but they do look quite like the real thing.  Look forward to the testing.

  8. Nice video mate. That's a neat little radio.  Be ideal for portable DX'ing.

  12. Nice little power meter.

  13. Never heard of Olywiz before. They look chunky. As you say a bit like the 888. Great video as per normal. Esp like the lighting, you got that set up well.

  19. Its pretty big. Amazed it does not travel more than 25 miles. You could get that with a Gainmaster :-). Great video.

  22.  @RingwayManchester  All cool. I googled and there is a Azann radio transmitter in St Albans so i will tune in to it :-)

  23. Seems like a short on the second one. Not sure why folks would want a light on the antenna but after seeing the SWR readings Jeez. Good video bud.

  32. Looks like a winner to me

  33. Really interesting video Lewis. Amazing it was mentioned on radio.

  34. Great video Lewis and the whole issue put across very clearly. Personally i think network radio has a place in communication and something that iam myself considering. The audio sounds great on the new microphone and 13 mins without a break or mistake was some going. Well done.

  35. Great video Lewis. Well done. Still i nice looking device. Cannot understand the 16 thumbs downs. ?

  36. Great tests Lewis. Rem thats with a UHF antenna as well.

  39. Strange the tower has gone. I rem the first video.

  40. Nicely done Lewis. Hope your well.

  41. I still think the UV5R is a winner. Just picked up a 888s Plus and not impressed.
    2
  42. They look well made for the money.
    2
  43. Great video Lewis. I would have been so tempted to put me Speedo's on and jumped in.

  44. Wow Lewis that was awesome. A real cut above. Some great drone footage as well. Well done .

  45.  @allsortsabouteverything  Or the school run. i could have done with a set back then :-)

  46. Interesting if not worrying stuff :-O

  47. Such a shame they fixed the antenna. Thanks for the shout and link. :-)

  48. I think as a local range PMR they are good value. Well that is unless you look at the UV5R :-)

  49. It looks a little like a Tecsun. Good it covers air band. Great video mate.

  50. They look nice units. Bit like the old 446 Mhz home bases. Good video.
