Radtel RT-900, more than just a Dual Band Radio.

[TNFrank]

Been wanting something to play on the 6M and 33cm/900MHz bands and found this radio. The Radtel RT-900 will actually do 18MHz to 999MHz when put on "Super Mode" and with the proper antenna tuned for the right frequency just may be the ticket for a low cost HT to mess around on Multi-Bands. Enjoy the video and thanks for watching. TN.Frank Out.

Correction on 33cm/90MHz. They appear to TX but I can't get RX even with a proper antenna so they don't seem to work on 33cm.

According To Radtel's Website - Your Vid Info Is Incorrect.

The RT-900 Will Only RX/TX On 136 To 260 MHz & 330 To 520 MHz.

All Other Bands Are RX Only.

I do want to make a correction. 33cm/900MHz does seem to TX but there's no RX as I now have 2 of these radios and can't get them to RX on 33cm even with the proper antenna.  I can TX and RX on CB, 6M, 2M, 1.25M and 70cm along with MURS and GMRS without any problems. Despite with the website says they WILL TX/RX on more frequencies than listed if they're set to "Super Mode", I know for a fact because I've done it. The website is probably listing what will TX/RX on "Normal" range. 

 

P.S.

They also do RX only on Airband, FM Broadcast and NOAA Weather Radio.

IMO - Folks Should Do Some Real Research On A Radio, Before Putting Out A Bogus / Nonsense YouTube Vid.

This Type Of Junk Does Noting But Confuse New Potential GMRS Users.

Some That Just Recently Purchased A Ham License & Now Seem To Be RF Experts, Are Putting Out Vids & Disputing The Manufactures Specifications On Their Products.

Really.........
