Anytone AT-D868UV – My Thoughts

 

I’m going to try something different than what I’ve done in the past.  Instead of providing you with a full review, there are plenty of good ones already on the web, I’m going to summarize my pro’s and con’s as I continue to play with this radio.  This will be a living post for a while as I will continue to update throughout my experience.

Pro’s

  • Display is very clean/crisp
  • Last heard indicator for DMR
  • Timeslot indicator for DMR channels
  • Separate CPS containers for Group Call ID’s (talkgroups) and Private Call ID’s (users)
  • Support for contacts on www.amateurradio.digital
  • Ability to write config and contacts separately to radio
  • Very easy to set boot-up image

 

Con’s

  • Unable to re-order zones, scan lists
  • Can’t cut/paste multiple channels in CPS
