  1. Always interesting. 👍👍

  2. Another fascinating look at the use of RF.

  3. Good video as always. Looks quite a tidy radio. However, it’s a bit pricey for my needs. I tend to pick up Yaesu “last model” radios for installation in cars.

  4. So much around us which we pass by without noticing.

  5. Always affordable for those on a tight budget, but I do like a signal meter rather than the mobile phone type bar graph these tend to have.

  6. Great story, thanks for sharing. 👍

  7. Don’t remember these, to be honest. Nice overview, though.

  8. Most interesting! 👍👍

  9. Nice to see the kindness of individuals. I remember going into the Piccadilly Radio Offices, late 70s, and getting some window stickers. Oh, and yes, we are planning on another Radio Fox Hunt this year. 👍👍

  10. I’ll be looking out even more closely now. There are probably still many of these out there, along with Squariels.

  11. Very interesting video. 👍

  12. Interesting point, though the 7300 does come with 4m here. I can’t help but think they have missed out on a lot of custom by dropping 4m. I do know of hams that cancelled their order after it was announced. Stay safe. 👍

  13. Very interesting.

  14. A very good insight. I hadn’t heard of this before.

  15. Rabbit was probably the most wide known on the phone point systems. I get my handset, but was relatively quickly asked to send it back, with an Orange Analogue handset being sent in return. I probably still have it somewhere. Not sure why they wanted the handset back, or what they did with them.

  17. More interesting local information as always. 👍

  18. Nice review. The same chassis is often sold under various names, a common practice which has taken place for many, many years.

  19. Raises the eyebrows as to what people will accept as a disguise! Advice from Blue Peter perhaps!?

  20. Nice sunset and sky pics. 5 sites?

  21. Another one I’ve never heard of, or don’t recall. 👍👍

  22. I need to get out with the drone and give it a proper flight!

  23. Another interesting video. It would be nice to just plonk yourself down at such a location and stare at the night sky.

  24. Nice sounding audio and some good distances. Matchmoor Lane seems a good location.

  28. Another great episode.

  29. Good information as always. I’ve never been to Werner’s Low, we must arrange a /P day from there when the good weather comes.

  34. I only know Stockport from what I can see from the motorway.

  35. I use an AmPro 4m when out in the car, but only parked up though, on a 3 mag mag mount.

  36. A better price that the previous model demonstrated, and appears to have more features.

  37. Interesting story.

  38. A very interesting series, thanks for putting it together.

  39. Interesting. Is it just stored, or regularly used!? 🤔

  40. Interesting, but expensive. I could imagine people buying it for the shelf, but not at £100

  41. Another great video looking at the history and developments in the use of radio.

  42. 👍👍

  43. I didn’t realise there were so many clones. Inevitable I suppose. I don’t expect performance to be anywhere near, but can’t beat them for entry level radios.

  44. Looks a really good day out.

  45. Good information as always! 👍👍

  46. Interesting as always. As technology changes, many such sites have/will be lost.

  47. Certainly a lot of radio for the money, but a lot of false claims out there. It’s often a good idea to check the manufacturer’s website to see the specification before committing. Unsurprisingly, Baofeng don’t mention a 15W or 18W version of this radio.

  48. Interesting variation. Don’t look quite as good in yellow though.

  49. Fascinating story. 👍
