Anytone Ares 2


Am, Fm, ssb! Looks like a winner, where can I get one? I hope it has the noise reduction feature.



That looks like a good next radio!

It seems they're going for the kill with the Ranger customer base! Classic look and mo betta than much of what's available from Malaysia or Vietnam these days.

Maybe Ranger will jump on the band wagon and have them make a Ranger radio for them? Seems like the obvious next step, unless Ranger has something up there sleeve? Or maybe they will slap a 400w amp on the bottom of this one and call it done.
 
I'm just going to be the first to ask-
How do you convert it to 11 meters?
Where is the power VR? Mod VR?
Will it really do a 75 watt DK and swing to 400 watts?:eek:
:ROFLMAO:

I think I want one.:unsure:

It will be interesting to see how to get into the service menu with no LCD and menu button.

Probably similar software setup as the 447hpc2, I'm willing to bet the same underpinnings as the the 5000 plus, 5555 plus and others like those. Full size export chassis to take on the connex flavors, galaxy 33, general Lee's and such but with ssb that the others can't provide.

I think it an attractive radio from initial looks.
 
Wow, at that price point, Cobra and Ranger/ Galaxy don't stand a chance. It's the beginning of the end for them. It was a good run though.

If we do a group buy of 50, we can get them customized with WWDX and I will take 4 of them.
That sounds good, I would be on board with that.

From what we've seen ranger do for over a decade now in their own manufacturing, even if they retooled to produce something to take the qixiang bunch, it's too far gone....

It's nice to see anytone pushing out more new radios, it shows ambition.

    Antenna length on my mobile. So I’ve had 3 different radios in my truck. 2006 f250 super duty. 29ltd NW, 29 ltd clasic, and now a galaxy DX44HP. My steel whip is somewhere around 89”. Which I know is way to short. But show 1.2 SWR on all 3 radios. And I have a a bench SWR meter that shows the same results. Which I find odd and disturbing. Note the frequency is 27.205. The longer I make the whip the higher the SWR. At 102” it’s up around 2.5. Which totally blows any of my experience i have with mobile radio antennas. I have the antenna mounted to a post just higher than the cab. I’ve swapped the jump through several to different ones. Even tried lug and so239. Connections at the antenna. Seems to transmit well and receives well. Any ideas how this could be possible?
  • @ Jim5570091:
    Turns out I was missing the ground to the cab. Problem solved. Now have 102” exact and 1.2 SWR 26.005 megahertz through 28.005 megahertz. Pictures posted on my profile.
