    Excellent Radio, But...
  

*by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2024*

If you're looking for a top-quality alternative to the ubiquitous Baofeng HT's (notably the UV5R's and their variants), give this radio a chance.  Sturdy and generally well made, it finds and hold frequency well and works well for Amateur Radio Operators looking for something to keep in your bag, talk to local Hams or (like me) use it with a Digirig (or similar interface) to do digital communications.The only downside? They provide a lovely manual that describes a plethora of functions and features BUT NOT HOW TO USE MOST OF THEM!  I spent more time on the Internet trying to find information than I should have.  Using the manual to figure out the best way to setup Winlink Extress was a nightmare.  Luckily for me, the person who recommended the radio to me had done it and helped me figure it out.Anyway, if you can find one, it's a great HT.

    Best Retevis yet
  

*by A***1 on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2024*

I have a couple other Retevis portables, and I'm rather "picky" when it comes to one. Having said that, this one, the RA89 is the best one yet... 10 watts, dual band, 95% Front Panel programmable, easy to program via the keypad, USB "C" charging option, FM broadcast. And its "unlockable"... theres severalvideos on the web showing how.  The only thing missing is a dedicated "bank" for NOAA weather channels & alert. ● Now if Retevis wanted to make a "dream" radio all they'd have to do is add 1.25m (220mhz), 6m (50mhz), GPS, Aviation Rx. One version Analog  & another with DMR.

    Almost perfect
  

*by P***C on Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2023*

This is a fun radio to use, it's buil like a tank. Pretty heavy duty and when you pick it up you know it's not a toy. Came with everything you need to make it work...programming cable charging craddle, usb-c cable, antenna. It's not super hard to figure it out how to use it or program it from the panel. I love the feauture that turns off the background noise, works wonders. Be carefull with the alarm mode, you can't change that on the radio or in the CPS, no option to make the alarm local, it will broadcast all over. I like that you can charge it via USB-C. Easy to program and re-program if you need a wider range of frequencies. Photos state works with chirp and when you look closely it says in the future...we shall see about that, lots of nice radios are still not in chirp and they been on the market very long time. CPS program is horrible, worst I ever used, it will work in a pinch but it's bad really bad. So far I like that radio, pretty powerfull for a HT. I'll be waiting for more firmwre updates to make this radio great.
