  • Best Radio
I have been using the radio for a short time and without any issues. I love the quad bands and being able to connect on many different bands. The radio was easy to program using CHIRP Next and the manufactures software. The remote head allowed me to mount the radio body in the back of my vehicle and the included wire was more than enough to remote mount the head unit. The range of this radio is great and I can connect to repeaters in neighboring counties. Great radio with no issues on my end. ... show more

  • No Support , useless warranty , Manufacturer will never respond.
I received the item just fine. I set it up with the matching quad band antenna and the unit worked fine for a couple weeks. It then started having issues. it would lock up to the point you had to shut the power supply off as the radio would not do anything. Then it went deaf, the Antenna was tested and it was functioning perfect, but the radio itself would not receive any signal. I did factory reset on the unit and it still was deaf. transmitted fine but could not hear anything.I was past the return window at this point so I tried to contact the manufacturer. the number they give does nothing, that being the 400 number they have on the box and manual. so I tried the web page, 8 emails sent directly from the web page and no one had responded. you can not get any support for this unit or the company that made it. 2 months now I've wasted sending emails out and not 1 reply. I would not reccomend this radio to anyone or the company that made it. I've wasted a bunch of money on this. TYT is a horrible manufacturer. Soon this will be completely out of warranty and they are doing nothing. ... show more

  • It is amazing. Good clear strong audio, Excellent audio reports.
I just purchased this radio. I connected it to a Comet GP-98 VHF/UHF TriBand antenna, and a portable 12 volt motorcycle battery just to try it out. This rig is amazing. Good clear strong audio. I'm receiving contacts on UHF simplex over 30 miles from my home, and these contacts were receiving me just as well, it took me about an hour to figure out the menu settings. Also where and how to set the step for UHF, then I was able to set my local area repeaters. I have been getting excellent audio feedback reports on the lowest power setting at just 5 watts. This is a good solid radio. To help with programming, I have ordered the TYT programming cable so that I can program the radio with my laptop. One additional plus is that CHIRP free programming software can be downloaded to program the radio. So far I'm very pleased. I checked with my local HRO, and my tech representative explained that the antenna recommended for this Quad band radio does not perform well with 2 meters and 440 bands, and will perform better if you use a diplexer with 2 different antennas one for VHF/UHF dualband, and a seperate antenna for 10 and 6 meters. I'm planning to set the TYT unit up this way in my vehicle. High marks on this awesome radio. It is my understanding that this TYT 9800 is Chinese copy/knockoff of the Japanese Yaesu Ft-8900R Quad Band Amateur Ham Radio Transceiver 2M / 6M/ 10M / 70cm, and lists for $700.00. One thing to know is this TYT unit performs just as well as it's Japanese Cousin, and the TYT is only $248.00. For the price you cannot beat this radio. For those that are frugal, or for those that cannot afford the Japanese Cousin, this TYT is definitely a great option. For those of you who are Yaesu Japanese "DIEHARDS" go ahead - spend the extra $310.90 buy the Yaesu 8900, and be just as happy as the TYT 9800 customers.

  • Better and cheaper than Yaesu FT-8900 but ...
I was first hesitant investing this much on a Chinese mobile radio for my car. This is an exact clone of the FT-8900, which is about $180 more more expensive AND less capabilities. To my surprise, I am very happy with this purchase. Chinese radios has been criticized by many ham operators but little do they know that all "Japanese made" radios are actually made also in China, or parts of it at least. This is no exception. I see a well built and very good quality ham radio. It does exactly what the FT-8900 but with unlocked transmit in all bands! It can also transmit in AM in 10 and CB bands. All this the FT-8900 can not do. This is a good addition to your shack if you are really objective in evaluating quality, performance, and capabilities. I own a Yaesu FT-8800 and other Yaesus but I have to admit that this is better that the FT-8900 in so many aspects. The only thing I did not like about it out of the box is it is set not to transmit if the frequency is busy or has a carrier (Busy Lock). This will be frustrating and can turn off any ham operator. To add to that frustration, there is no option in the radio's menu that can turn that off. Imagine checking into a net but you cant because you're waiting for the repeater to drop, which rarely happens.Bottom line, you won't be able to use it out of the box if you are going to work repeaters. This is the only thing that kills this radio and why TYT designed it as a default is beyond me. Make sure you purchase the programming cable and have the TYT program ready to disable that function. Shipping was fast and seller stands by their product. Download this (TYT-9800 2.06 Eng) to program the radio: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-wmkorOvfaZOWRUOFVESUw1Zjg/view?usp=sharing Download this to fix the no transmit due to Busy Lock (instructions included): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-wmkorOvfaZTkFrNjd0NHhJcE0/view?usp=sharing Ps. Your antivirus might prompt you a warning because the program was developed by "unknown" publisher. Its fine and I have verified it with my Norton 360. Bottom line: You are saving aprox. $180 (even with Yaesu's $50 rebate) with same FT-8900 capabilities + a lot more BUT you have to flash/update or use your computer to fix the "Busy Lock" bug. ... show more
