TYT MD-UV390

Less than six months, the radios circuit board burned out. However, I purchased a new one due to the ease of use and ability to program analog, on the fly. Tough radio and works well in the different weather conditions. Good product but for safety I would have purchased the two year warranty in the beginning, I did this time.

Great Digital HT, to be honest at the beginning is super complicate; But, before you go away ,, let me tell you EVERYTHING IS DIFICULT IN LIFE, just practicing day by day and Patience with the TYT ,You will get it done, Also with the USB Cable Connector will b more easy ; download everything on the PC, and transferred into your TYT , Lot's to do but it can be done, as i mention before, good luck Thank you

I have never written a totally negative review my life. That sould tell you something about what comes next. We were never able to even try using this radio. The programing cable is dumb and the electrics for it reside in the radio itself. Window 10 will not allow the driver to load because it does not receive a valid certificate when polled. and therefore does not allow communications from the computer to radio to program, Spent three days researching ways around the issue, Wrote multiple email to the manufacture. Which went unanswered. I would recommend you avoid this manufacture just based on the customer support, and total lack of response. The customer support and lack of response seem to be a common complaint in the internet about this company. So if your looking for a radio to look pretty on your desk . This will do it. If you want to actually use it. don't by anything you may need technical support from Tytera

The TYT MD-UV390 is an inexpensive but very capable dual-band DMR radio. Pros: UHF & VHF Dual Band Radio Audio sounds good on the both receiving and transmitted audio. DMR is capable, compatible with other DMR (unencrypted) handhelds, and crystal clear. Price is almost impossible to beat for a DMR radio. IP67 Rating Incredibly durable radio Good battery life and longevity (and cheap to replace, unlike most radio batteries) Basic encryption options Cons: Encryption is not compatible with other non-TYT radios Encryption options are weak and would be easy to crack with the right tools Dual channel functions are somewhat clunky (although functional). It feels like they made a workaround to make the single-channel MD-390 menu system work in a dual-channel mode. Loss of the superhet receiver that was found in the MD-380's and MD-390's. Overall Review: For the money, this is by far the best dual-band digital radio you can buy. Anything better will cost at least 2x to 30x more. Ultimately the TYT UV-MD390 is a great dual-band radio. If you don't need dual-band capabilities I would highly suggest looking at the TYT MD-390 or TYT-MD380 single-band radios with superhet receivers. That being said, I have worked with many TYT-MD380/390's and TYT UV-MD380/390's and I have never been able to hear the difference in the receiver. Generally speaking, most of us enjoy having both UHF & VHF at our fingertips, which makes this radio very attractive.

It's a great sounding and performing radio. I had an issue when I got it that it was asking for a password when I powered it on and when I tried to program it with the computer but here's the workaround! I did seem to find a workaround – Remove Password MD380/90 1. Go to folder the CPS is in (C:\TYT) 2. look for file - setting.ini 3. Right click and edit 4. password=0 change to password=password 5. Save Connect radio to PC and turn on in normal mode. a. Read Code plug from radio. b. General Settings remove all 3 passwords c. Save Code plug d. Write back to radio

Just what I was looking for to replace a retevis radio i was using for sure department convenient usb c charging also

Excellent Radio. If you know how to program DMR then it is a breeze to program. From Radio or the CPS software. If you've never used DMR then it's gonna be tuff on you, but EVERY DMR Radio will be tuff on you. Give yourself a month to learn the DMR structure.

Functionally the radio is OK. But programming it is an issue. The USB driver is a generic one from the manufacturer of the chip. But it is an old version. You can't use the newer ones. So if you use Win10 the OS automatically updates the driver. So you need to change the driver through Device Manager every time you plug in a radio.

Sinceramente eu esperava o rádio para depois de terça-feira! No entanto chegou hoje dia 28 de fevereiro! O rádio é muito bonito robusto o preço é excelente apesar da taxa de importação ainda continua um ótimo preço! Eu já programei duas canaletas digitais super fácil não tive dificuldades porque eu já tinha um MD 380! Ele tem muitos recursos eu ainda chego lá mas eu recomendo é um super rádio muito bonito também! Ah também o som é impressionante! Foi muito rápido a entrega pois estava programado para depois do dia 6 de março! Eu achei que na escolha também o GPS era opcional mas já veio com o GPS!
