Overview

AnyTone builds this compact dual band mobile radio for amateur operators setting up in a car or at home. A rotating screen lets you mount it upside down, a fan and alloy body shed heat, and the lighted microphone carries its own speaker.

Hams get two bands, a flexible mounting screen and a mic with keypad in a small chassis. Output tops out at a moderate level, and the six month warranty is short.

Who it's for

New and experienced hams fitting a radio under a dash or console will use the rotating display. Operators chasing maximum range need a higher power rig.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Rotating display for any mount
  • Two bands in one radio
  • Lighted keypad microphone
  • Cooling fan for long transmits
Cons
  • Moderate output power
  • Antenna not included

Performance notes

Range depends on antenna and power setting, with the higher level reaching farther but adding heat. The fan and alloy body hold temperatures down on long transmissions. Programming through the free software is faster than keying channels by hand.
