WSFQ673 Posted November 28 Report Posted November 28 TdiRadio is selling two (at least) versions of the TD-H3. Is there a significant difference between the two? I know there is a difference in what is included in the package, but it appears to be the same radio. Is the only difference which band is unlocked for Tx? Quote
GMRSJohn Posted November 28 Report Posted November 28 Interesting.. I know the H3’s can be both ham and GMRS. I’ve been looking at them recently myself but for strictly GMRS use. TrikeRadio 1 Quote
LeoG Posted November 29 Report Posted November 29 Both the same radio. I believe the only difference in the package is what antenna it comes with. GMRS tuned or Ham tuned. Both radios can be changed to either GMRS, Ham or Normal which is unlocked. TrikeRadio and WSAQ296 2 Quote
WSAQ296 Posted December 7 Report Posted December 7 They are effectively the same radio. Depending on how you order depends on the antenna(s) shipped with the unit. Upon powering up, there's a sequence of buttons that can be pressed to change it from gmrs to ham or 'normal' (open to all). I leave mine gmrs, as the whole point is to be able to hand a channelized radio to someone for use, not to accidentally have them dial up some unknown freq. RIPPER238 1 Quote

I have 2 Ham and 1 GMRS and other than a slight power difference they work the same with the current updates. TrikeRadio 1 Quote

My 2 Ham models seem to have more consistent power across all bands where the GMRS model when in Normal does not. Not that its a huge difference, but its there. Could also just be inconsistency for a $30 radio. Quote
