You need to download the Baofeng CPS programming application on a computer that has either windows 7, 10, or 11 (idk what about Linux but ik the program is only for windows and no other OS). Once you get used to the programming for it, it’ll be a breeze to use and program the radio!Battery life - it’s pretty goodReception - it’s pretty good as well, it’s a 5 watt radio so it’ll hit the closest repeaters quite wellSound quality - it’s amazing

These are hard to program without going on to this free website that my computer says has corrupt data on it. I

I got back into ham radio about a year when I discovered DMR. I bought 2 of the BTech hts and have enjoyed them a lot. However, I wanted a less expensive, basic DMR/analog for use while hiking and camping and that I could use easily when in a belt pouch. The DM-1701 had the features that I wanted. At first I found it very frustrating, even though I was very familiar with code plugs I has a couple of little differences that had me confused. And getting the DMR contacts list imported to it is not intuitive at all. I finally figured it all out and it has turned out to be a really great little radio. Very good transmitting for only 5 watts and my signal reports even through a pretty distant repeater are very good. The reception and sound quality are excellent as well. The handset itself feels very solid and fits the hand well. If you are familiar with DMR programming or are willing to spend some time learning, this is an excellent value DMR HT.Edit 11/3/2023: I have noticed some mentions of the volume knob sticking. I thought this too until I figured out that both knobs are slightly raised to form a pointer in one spot. If the two pointers are both pointing toward the other knob, then turning the volume control caused them to rub and it feels like it is sticking. I took a knife and shaved both knobs just a tiny bit and now that doesnt happen.I like this radio so much I bought a 2nd one during Prime deals days. This is a really great DMR radio.

To be clear, my use cases are mostly DMR using a hotspot, and occasional analog usage using a crossband repeater. For those two use cases, and for the money, this radio is really good value. I already owned a Radioddity GD-88, but that radio still has some bugs that's annoying to use, particularly the volume control. This radio, even though has less feature, IS much simpler and is much simpler to use and much less headaches to use. I use the stock firmware, and stock CPS, and did not have to resort to the open source firmware like some other users. The audio quality is totally acceptable. There are some little issues that should be mentioned: (1) The belt clip that has already been mentioned by many other users; they should have the belt clip screwed onto the body of the radio and not the battery. (2) The two knobs will at some point end up interfering with each other because they each have a small tab that will touch the other when you turn them. What I did was to use sandpaper to lightly sand off the tab off of one of the knob and that fixed the issue. (3) The rubber covering the PTT button sometimes will stick to the side of the radio and doesn't return to the "normal" position smoothly-It just doesn't have a good feel to it. (4) I wish they would give me the source code to the CPS software; it can use a few feature improvements.On another note, I saw some negative comment about this radio not being supported by the Chirp software. How is that this radio's fault? In fact the Chirp software does not support any DMR radio (not as far as I'm aware).I ended up buying two of these, one for myself and one for my son who's will be using this in his dorm room. Although I do like this radio for what it is, I'm kinda hesitant to recommend it, as I know DMR radio in general is not the simplest thing to get into, and this product in particular, is somewhat old, and may not be compatible with some newer computer and can be an issue for people. I was in pursuit of some budget DMR radios and glad I found this one; it serves the purpose of being a simple DMR hotspot radio.

El producto me gustó pero su batería no dura las 12 horas mínimo a diferencia de otros baofeng que me llegan a durar más de 24 horas de uso

Muy buen radio, buen alcance todo iba perfecto hasta hace unos días que lo dejé en su base cargador sin estar conectada a la corriente y cuando lo trate de encender ya no encendió, conecte el cargador y por un rato estaba con el led rojo y después de unos 5 min cambio al led verde, pero no enciende

To preface, please ensure you are properly licensed/approved to utilize certain frequencies before operating this radio.TL:DR at bottom.The radio comes with all of the accessories to get you started: charger, programming cable, and a headset. While this can be programmed from the radio, I would highly suggest using a computer – it is a lot easier this way. Drivers and programming software can be downloaded from the radioddity website; I say this because it was not mentioned in the manual. Personally, I would give this radio a 4.5/5 but am rounding it up due to the lack of giving half stars.I have used different HAM radios since receiving my license about a year ago. They include: Radioddity GD-77, GD-73; Anytone AT-D878UV; Baofeng: UV-5R, UV-82; Motorola: Various commercial models from work.I have been using this radio for about a week and note the followingPros:Great build and sound qualityEasy to use interfaceDecent reception compared to other radiosDMR capabilitiesMulti-option programmable buttonsSoftware is mainly self-explanatory (if you have programmed a radio before)Interesting quirks:Programming the radio can be tricky at times – for example, I was trying to create a scan list (I monitor severalfrequencies at work) using the software and it seems you need to add channels in two places – in the “Scan” tab, where you add channels, and customize the scan; and while programming the channel itself under the “Scan List” section of the window. Failing to do this will not allow you access scan. Essentially, you can create the scan list, but without adding the list directly to the channel, you cannot enter the scan option on the radio or scan entirely. (This took me a decent amount of time to find out why I couldn’t scan after creating my lists.The manual included in the box, as well as on the site, are in slightly broken English. For example, on the first page of the manual: “Thank you for your favor with our products.” When programming the radio, I needed to look up certain menu items to understand their functions. Some were poorly described or not included. This resulted in me trialing by fire, while I enjoy this, for some this can be aggravating. I wish that the programming software had the information box at the bottom of the screen to describe what each item did like the GD-77.Cons:I wouldn’t really call these cons, but more of me being picky-The radio is quite tall/big – while not heavy, it can get in the way when clipped to your belt or pocket.Menu system can be tedious – lots of menus in menus, but is in depthVolume knob can stick at times – turning it on will stick at 2 volume, pushing it past that continues on, lowering the volume sticks at 6 in the same spot, but can then be lowered past that.TL:DR: Very nice radio, has some quirks, but would recommend others to purchase.
