WRJZ939 Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 Picked one of these up and gave it a good what for. Wrote my thoughts down on my blog. I have a few other ham related blogs and probably some old Short Wave content as well. https://hagensieker.com/2024/04/06/retevis-ailunce-ha1g-gmrs-radio-review/ WRXB215, WRHS218 and Taz670 3 Quote
Taz670 Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Hey WRJZ939, thanks for that review on the HA1G radios. I am new to GMRS and a family member just ordered this radio for me as a gift. I'm looking forward to testing them out. Btw, i'm also a weirdo as far as finding things sometimes like you found with the NOAA as well lol. WRJZ939 and SteveShannon 2 Quote
pl4tinum Posted May 26 Report Posted May 26 Is it possible to disable the dual channel mode? Seems like a cool radio; I have the NR30 which I think is similar shape and dimensions just without a screen. Bummer this only does 5w when the NR does almost 10. That extra power comes in handy once in a while. Quote

I’m not sure about the NR30 Quote

I’m not sure about the NR30 Sorry I was only asking about the HA1G, the NR30 is always in single channel node as it has no screen and only a channel select knob. From what you are describing it sounds like the HA1G does it like the radioddity DB20g where a key combo toggles it. Good to know, thanks! Quote
Buzz282 Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 Good review. I have had an HA1G for about a week now and have been really pleased with it. I still prefer my KG-935G Plus over the HA1G but for the price to performance of the HA1G it is a great value in my opinion. The limit of 16 channels per scan group is really the only part I’m not crazy about, but certainly not a deal breaker for my use cases. WRUU653 1 Quote
FreshPrincex21 Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 Good review, I enjoyed the read. I've had this radio in my saved for later section on Amazon. Might just have to move it to my shopping cart.. Quote
