The internal speaker is quite good considering its small size. The transmit audio is always complimented in simplex service- the local 2m & 70cm repeater has comparatively poor audio fidelity. At worst, they contribute a 'cheap' feel to the rig which is wholly undeserved considering the brick-solid construction of the rest of the rig. I agree with several other posters that the volume & squelch pot shafts have a excessive amount of lateral play, but this doesn't appear to affect their smooth and noiseless operation. This one has survived a few knocks and getting rained on briefly without complaint. I picked up a 2nd-hand 208H a bit more than a year ago with the intent of using it as the main shack 2m/70cm rig, but it has been pressed into service as an impromptu mobile on a few occasions. Great performer, durable, hard to program Separation cable screws on to the front attachment (Can't easily be removed for security) I get a lot of engine noise when used mobile Very complicated menu and programming setup The front attachment is not so heavy duty (wobbly knobs) + The main radio is very heavy duty and solid (UK version)Įarlier 4-star review posted by GM1EXK on TX Audio is Low (apparently the FM Deviation is only set to 3.5khz from factory)Ĭan't set it to auto repeater shift in the repeater block. The Fan comes on regardless of TX power and temp and is LOUD! Average or slightly better than average selectivity
