Anytone AT-5555 PLUS /N Anytone AT-5555N II I have one of each to test and will be spending some time with each to see what I think of them. Despite sharing the same main board they are completely …

Interesting read.

I know my version of the NII (7900v turbo) has tx and rx noise reduction. Not sure what the compander is or didn't even know it was a whole different noise filtering. Does the styker versions have both compander and noise reduction?

The device on the bottom is odd, mine has seals so I can't take a peak inside (it's driving me crazy). First radio ever owned that I haven looked in. It's like being married but seeing her untarped isn't an option .

The At-5555N II does not have the noise compander option in the menu. The above post is primarily for the AT-5555 Plus /N. It seems to enhance the receive audio a bit on SSB. So far I must say it doesn't make that much difference. Maybe on AM or FM?

No sir, I don't intend to pop the tins on this one. I works like a champ.

Correct, just didn't know about the compander feature being different all together.

My K-PO 5000 has seals as well that I haven’t broken. However with the cost of shipping these days and since the radios have to be returned to the manuf (overseas) for warranty I am not sure it really matters lol.

I think you are right. For the time being only Anytone in China will will be able to repair these if required. That usually means the user will have to pay the postage both ways, but it also means it will be fixed or replaced.

Nice article with some good info, for sure!
I do like the variable adjustment on the rxnr. I usually keep mine on 2 or 3, depending on conditions, etc. I honestly haven't found anything that I don't like about the at-5555n2. Yet...
So far this has been a great radio! As with everything else, time will tell... But for now, we're all smiles here.
