Thanks, It's a Bird.. Just thought it was odd that it was lower than i had expected, considering the coverage for both 25 and 40 watts are very similar with a tiny exception for fringe areas.. I just have had a hard time getting any real world specs from anyone whom has these radios.. it seems to be a fairly common radio for the cost too.. Thnx WQVB250 Randy
Has anyone done any testing on this TYT 9000 unit? as far as power output on high? I only appear to have about maybe 30 watts output with a dummy load and good wattmeter.. Is anyone seeing that these are varying in power from one unit to the next? I was planning to use it as the transmitter side of our new repeater but my old Motorola seems to have more power as a 40 watt unit.. Would love to hear some real world tests.. Thanks! Randy.
