TYT TH-UV3R Vs. Baofeng UV3R

[p1879]

I have read the eham reviews, and the TYT does seem interesting. I like the little Baofeng unit, but after about a year the vhf side is a bit deaf. So....looking at a new micro-radio and the tyt seems nice. I mostly use the Baofeng as a scanner, and I know the TYT has several scan rates, down to 100ms, but I am not sure if this is any improvement over the dismal rate of the baofeng.

Can any TYT Th-uv3r owners chime in about their impressions on this radio?

tnx and 73

I have talked to owners of both the TYT UV3R and the Baofeng UV3R and while they are not the same radio, they have liked the TYT better.

I'm completely new to these transceivers , but I have been looking at the TYT TH-3R also.... my concerns are low power output ( 2.5 watt ).... battery life ( 3.6 volt )..... I may wait to see what the TH-F9 reviews look like. Moleculo's review is excellent ( world wide radio forums)
