  1. Hello everyone. I have a pretty basic question. Does anyone know of how to convert a Baofeng mic from should/belt clip to a button style that works on a hang clip? Or even better a mic that will work on the Baofeng that already has the button style for the hang clip. It seems my google foo is weak this weekend or one does not exist for these? Thanks, Glen
  2. Hello everyone. I'm brand new here. I thought I'd say something on this. Having been looking at this on Amazon myself too, I found the listings for this model is really messed up. One listing shows clearly a GMRS model and that supplies an FCCID. The other looks like a Ham model. Now that could just be the sellers listing is not what it should be or they have two models named KT8900D. GMRS: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09G9NB4Z3/?coliid=I2GXLFFZ6I3BCK&colid=LU5K04JHK9AR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it (FCCID: 2AV62KT-8900D) FCCID: https://fccid.io/2AV62KT-8900D And the manual provided to the FCC, clearly shows the frequencies as: 462.5625-462.7125MHz 462.5500-462.7250MHz 467.5500-467.7250MHz Rx:136-174&400-470Mhz If what you purchased has the same FCCID, I'd say that's it's a GMRS model. Unless I'm reading the FCC website incorrectly, which is really possible. :-) I too have been looking at this model to provide a cheap repeater either simplex or duplex for a ranch in Wyoming. The cost is right on the mark but I have yet to find out specifics on how to hook two together to have a GMRS repeater and NOT a cross band repeater and it seems like that's all people do with it. Anyway, it would be good to know if a strictly GMRS duplex repeater could be made from these cheap radios. I would certainly love to build a repeater from Wouxun KG-1000G radios but that's a little bit above my price range at the moment. Hope I didn't make too much of a fool of myself tonight. :) Glen
