I recently installed a Btech 50 watt radio with a Tram 1181 antenna on an MNO mount. I've double-checked that everything is grounded properly, and while the radio transmits just fine, the reception is absolutely plagued with noise. Here's the weird part: if I completely remove the antenna from...

So I just purchased this mobile ham radio and have been enjoying it a lot. 25 Watts, had it programmed for repeaters in my area and all of a sudden, the display is very dim, no volume, hand mic is not functioning at all and does not even light up, the screen flickers when I’m on a frequency that...

I am receiving interference on a one-way listen-only analog frequency on a BTech DMR-6X2 Pro while sitting at my desk. It makes squelching noises intermittently and then just stops. This happens nowhere else so far. Are there settings I can change to be able to sit on the channel without...

Literally just purchased this radio. I like the features offered and I like the options the software gives. I have downloaded the CPS and ALL drivers for this cable. The radio seems to acknowledge the download and everything says it acknowledges and has been completed. But when the radio...

I have a BTech UV25X2 that has worked quite well for about 2-3 years. Recently, the received audio has disappeared. When I power up, the "Start" tones sound normal, so I know the speaker is working, but I cannot receive any transmitted audio. I've transmitted from a nearby HT, I've tried...

Hi guys, newbie again. I have a question. We as a lifeguards use the UV50X2 now for a couple of weeks. But my co lifeguards cannot seem to get a hold of the idea that the transciever can be on multiple channels. This results in them being on the wrong channel. So is it possible to change the...

I have purchased a Btech GMRS-V1 and am trying to get it to work with my cobra micro talk cxr900. I have set the frequency to 16 DCS 6 on the micro talk. The GMRS-V1 is setup with DCS 0043N for both TX and RX. When I key the micro talk up, it breaks the squelch on the GMRS-V1, but when I key...

I recently wrote a review of the BTECH GMRS-V1 handheld radio for my club’s forum, and after using it for a few months I would like to share my thoughts here as well. The original review can also be read on my blog. I was in the market for a handheld GMRS radio to be used primarily for outdoor...
