    Radioddity QT80 (6666 pro clone)

    Hi have 3 of them here. All of mine do between 80-90W PEP on AM, and 95-104W PEP SSB. Better than advertised on 10m/11m. Measured with a Bird 43, a Monitor Sensors meter, and a new calibrated spec an. All of the tests I have seen done by others with these meters, and also with an LP-100A also...

    Looking for a CB / meter rig? Maybe 12m too?

    I have used/owned every radio mentioned in this thread so far, and I still have most of them here in my shack now. For what you asked about, I would choose the QT-80 (AT-6666 PRO) first, then the QT-60 PRO (AT5555Nii short case) as a close second. No question, as these are true dual purpose...

    Radioddity QT-60 *Pro*

    Good stuff! FYI, You can disable modes with the PC software. But keep FM. It's a great mode. 73

    Enjoy! FYI, Press and hold the BAND button to enable VFO mode. (To get it out of channel mode on the ham bands). 73

    Not quite ready for prime time. Clone army.

    I wish this didn't exist, but it's also interesting on a technical level. Assuming a 20 watt (ish) radio, what does the power spread look like on each channel, across it's usable bandwidth? I guess, depending on the range of the radios TX passband and VCO, the actual power out on each individual...

    Radioddity QT-60 *Pro*

    This is not what I would expect getting a radio new from Radioddity, but if you have a good working radio on your hands, then it's still a good radio, so I wouldn't worry personally. I hope you have a good run with this one. 73

    It's none of my business (no dog in fight, etc) , but I did just re-read what Timmy said. It seems Scott's did not get an opportunity to look at the radio, and Timmy respectfully chose another path in this case. It might be the case that Scotts has not been contacted about this radio at all? I'm...

    No problem. Me too. Regarding the issue Timmy had - I'm not totally across this, but he did say that he did not contact the seller (Scotts) until very late, after sending it to another local tech for repairs first. And it was some 18 months (or so) after the sale? I don't know the outcome of...

    It wasn't a shameless plug, it was just an observation. I am not a customer of his. But I have seen him go over and above to help on the occasion that things go wrong. This, as opposed to buying a radio on eBay. That is all I was referring to. I have removed that comment from my reply, because...

    Nice try LC. I suggested finding a good tech, nothing about shops! He purchased this off eBay, so even he knows he is out of luck on that front. When you purchase an ARES 2 / AT-5555Nii / AT-6666 PRO, you could purchase it from somewhere like Radioddity (sold as QT-40/QT-60/QT-80) for the full...

    They are all different. If it has been messed with, you will most likely need to find a tech who understands these radios very well, with all the necessary test equipment to align it properly. This assumes that the radio isn't broken (no blown finals, missing components, damaged PCB, etc) of...

    Anytone At-6666 Pro

    Note that PIN 2 "EXT.AF" is RX audio available on the front mic socket - this is selectable in the "VOL.PATH" menu. This allows for a single cable connection to the radio for things like a full TX/RX headset, wireless/bluetooth accessory, or a data interface for digital modes (FT8, SSTV, VARA...

    Great! I will add some info below that might help: Disabling PA mode is a nice thing to do. NRC of course is adjustable from the radio and also the PC software . 15m is a "gift band". Performance RX and TX specs for 15m are not specified. It will have reduced TX power (around 50w-60w is...
