Ssb and it would be the best seller

Thank you for the first brief impression you gave us. Why isn't anyone curious about these features: - what bandwidth settings are available in which demodulation mode - the RF919 seems to be able to receive very narrow and selective Broadcast-FM, which is ideal for FM-DXers? - does it support synchronous AM? Its reduces the distortion when fading because of the LF-HF skywave propagation - what about the Air-Band Squelch ... is it as bad with a white noise trail like that of the bigger brother, the RF919? - When you use the recording feature, does it record the "nothing" in between the squelch being muted or is it smart and records only actual signals once the squelch opens up ... or is it very smart and records each signal between the squelch as a single file with a frequency and time-stamp in the file name and/or MP3 tag? Ideal for monitoring all day and check after work! - How fast is the memory channel scanning - channels per second? - Does it scan across different bands and modes? - How fast is the frequency range scanning and which steps are available? - How does it compare with its sensitivity and selectivity to a common reasonably good cheap radios like e.g. the XDATA-D808 or some Tecsun radios? Compare challenging weak signal situation across different bands and modes and see if and how different the outcome is - also nobody has ever done that with the RF919 model. - How does it compare in 2m or 70cm ham bands to a cheap handheld? Signal to noise? - Does the Bluetooth link show the RDS data on the phones graphics display for station identification? - Does it have a BT remote stand-by mode? If so you have it anywhere in your shack and use it mainly via your phone that is in your pocket anyway, if it supports being turned on and off via BT. I like its form factor and the fact that I don't pollute the environment using traditional batteries and charge it with the European USB-C standard ... every modern car has it ... I like the smartphone remote control if it can also stream its audio to the phone that you use your wireless headphones on ... so you could have it secured in your backpack operating with a small wire antenna while hiking in the mountains and listen to all kinds of VHF/UHF communications via your phone, without annoying people around you. Or does it only work as a BT speaker for your phone - can be very nice too, but I would probably use it 99% the other way around. Shame it doesn't have SSB, but if it does all the other modes well, it would still be a very interesting to me, especially the AIR-Band part.

Thank you for the great video.

Small nice but ( no SSB ) where is it am still waiting

They have the ssb but holding back making you spend all your money( just wait it wii come ) raddy we need ssb on a small radio like this you have the technology (still waiting )

Thanks for the video Would you recommend this radio for amateur users? Different features available. I have many brands and models of radios, but these features caught my attention.

If your talking about Ham Radio then probably not. It is AM only and no SSB.

You so right no ssb if this radio had ssd would be best seller ever am still waiting

first ever review of this on youtube, happy to see it! have you tested VHF / UHF, and AIR? i was wondering how it performs on those bands. if you want to, could you tune around the AIR, 138-174MHz, SATCOM, 450-470MHz, and the 851-860MHz range? a few SATCOM frequencies are 255.550, 253.850, 257.150, and 260.460. let me know how the performance is or if you caught any signals in each band, if you can! i am planning to buy one for myself soon. thank you!

I will try to monitor those frequencies and let you know when I hear something.

glad to hear! i am hoping for the radio to be very sensitive on those bands, being like that of an icom ic-r6 scanner for example.

hello! checking back here, have you found anything?

@@s1llyax0 Sorry, been very busy lately though I did have a chance to listen to some air band. From your comments it appears you would like a comparison to the Icom ic-r6. I do not have an Icom so could not do the comparison. Specifications on either web site are no help to us since they do not give details of how the sensitivity measurements were taken. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

NFM only on VHF and UHF bands ? Only from 3 kHz up to 4.5 kHz bandwidths?

Glad you reviewed this radio! The app is a cool feature! Ca you use Bluetooth to play on an external speaker?

It doesn't appear you can. At least not using android.

How about with 900 Mhz analog transmitter from baby monitors or aux transmitters?? Is there anyway to change UHF and VHF bands switched from NFM to WFM ?

No, it is NFM only

This radio is great on FM, unfortunately no RDS, but nevertheless..

There are a couple features I would have like to seen included but for the price it's still great value.
