THANK YOU! FINALLY! a video that is helpful - - not just how to open the box. It is dense. Be ready to hit pause. Not a criticism of the video, just a fact that there is so much useful content.

No Joke, this video was extremely helpful. My Yaesu 710 was very easy to navigate w/o opening up the instruction manual. This is my first ICOM and it's a world of difference. Loving the radio and it blows the Chinese HT's out of the water, but I wanted a training video to go over the radio. This hits the spot. You should work for ICOM, your video makes it easier that any manual. Only 6 minutes in so I'm sure you will go over this, but for those who did what I did and just pop in an SD card with a repeater CSV from D-StarInfo only to find it not work, you need to let the radio format the SD card (NOT in windows, on the radio) FIRST. It's under settings and SD card. Format the SD card on the radio FIRST. It will make folders and then you can add your files to the correct location on the SD. Again, thanks for this video!

So much to learn with these HTs - makes HF CW look like a walk in the park. Still haven’t decided on the ID52, FT5DR, or wait for the new Kenwood. Another channel I watch is based in Weston super Mare - he runs Ashworth Automotive (not a ham), and another in the Fens who is a ham.

That is a small world what is his call sign ?

@Hogdriver88 Жыл бұрын

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones The ham in The Fens is G0LQV - not exactly close to you but I know he’s been to Weston. But he also runs an ID52 and a 705, so maybe you’ve closed the gap via DStar?

I was also looking at the FT5 DR for the APRS feature but I honestly don’t think I’m gonna use it that much since the store has some thing similar. My favorite features of this radio is the sunlight readable LCD screen and the beautiful easy to read font and charging over USB although too bad it’s not USB-C type.

@@SteveHartmanVideos ID 52 just arrived this week. It's a nice radio, and I believe I've even figured out making a gateway call via DStar - I was able to link to London from North Carolina. No QSO yet, but it did work. I bought the optional drop in charger to avoid charging via the DC In and micro USB ports.

@SteveHartmanVideos 11 ай бұрын

@@Hogdriver88 I think I am leaning the same way to for the ID 52. I will end up getting the drop in charger as well but the USB is a nice feature to have when you are traveling I don’t want to bring the drop in charger. Now I just need to find a good deal on one. 73

Thank you for video. I’m learning a lot from your channel. I was just wondering, how did you get that background color blue. Mine shows only black and white.

HI, you mentioned a program that would let you use all of the reflectors without a hotspot. I was curious what that program is and if you have a video on it. I am glad I found you on youtube I just purchased an ID 52 today and should get it in a few days. Thanks for providing all of this great information!

Thank You! I still ONLY have 1 problem when I go to my LOCAL Repeaters I can hear fine.. but No one Ever hears me TRANSMITT? I have Icom 52A as well as the Icom 50A So I’m sure it’s somewhere N my Configuration settings ?

I can't find this info so I'm guessing no, but does this radio have CW decode? If not, can it be done via an App on mobile when connected via BT? My HT Base doesn't but I've added it when connected to a PC with a separate program. Not a huge deal breaker as this is UHF/VHF and not HF. Just curious.

@HamTechRadioScannerDrones 6 ай бұрын

No sorry

@HamTechRadioScannerDrones Thanks for the reply. Not needed for UHF/VHF anyway as it's mostly HF you hear CW. Anyway, thanks for the video. Cheers.
