My two TD-H3s are blowing my mind.
 
(I've seen so many reports by people bagging on the Tidradios but I have had nothing but great experiences with my H3. )
 
I'm up at my parents home about 8 miles east of Mariposa California... up in the foothills between Fresno and Yosemite Valley. I got permission from a repeater owner who has on setup overlooking Shaver Lake (I am not 100% sure of its exact location but from google maps it looks like it could be atop a ridge near Mt Stephenson). I'm able to hit the repeater with my two H3 handhelds using 771G antennas. The repeater has to be over 38 miles (60km) away but it seems I have a good line of sight through the hills from our location. The signal coming back does have a little static in it, but it is very understandable. I was amazed and very happy to find out this worked for me with this little amazing radios.

Very happy with mine.  Got about a dozen of them.  I did have 2 bad ones, both replaced by Tidradio.  I contact a few repeaters.  21 miles, 17 miles and 7 miles away.  Nice features, loud speaker.  The antenna is OK, I replaced it with the Nagoya 771G and got better results.
