High Power SHTF Walkie-Talkie - HYS 25 Watt UHF HT - The Ultimate Survival Radio - UHF, GMRS, HAM

a very normal man with very average intelligence once said if you hate him so much, why do you still see him today? I am going to introduce you to the ice ice hys 25

watt

walkie

talkie

radio

with the

high

est levels. I'll show you if it can really produce 25

watt

s and I'll show you how many distances it can talk at and I'll explain why any expert who tells you that you don't need a 25 watt

walkie

talkie

is an idiot and the price of a set of two should be ignored of these 25 watt walkie talkies, a set of two, the price is 169, affiliate link below and full disclosure holdups are the

high

est, however you say the name did not send me this set of

radio

s .

I bought them with the money I raised. of my supporting members, those are the members who have joined the channel by clicking the join button below. If you've ever wondered what I do with the dozens of dollars I collect each month from my support members, this is what I do. I buy these things, I test them and I show them to you so you don't have to do it now, as you probably already know, there's not a big difference when you go from transmitting it, let's say 3 watts to 5 watts, but when you go from transmitting 5 watts to 25 watts there is a big difference, not only will you go much further but higher

power

will also give you more penetration so you can transmit through things like walls and tree skulls much better than with a paltry 5 watt radio and no doubt many Experts in online comments will proclaim that 25 watts are not needed, well those experts are just jealous, what they really mean is that I wish my radio, which costs five times as much, could transmit 25 watts. they don't know how to express their emotions like normal people and no doubt online comment experts will proclaim that if you ever use a 25 watt portable radio you will fry your brain and then get cancer and if you've watched my channel I know how much I hate starting one online discussion.

I couldn't find any reliable studies showing a definitive link between this type of RF radiation and cancer, but if you were going to use this radio or any 25 watt portable radio for extended periods of time on the highest 25 watt setting , I would probably use an external handheld microphone like this, not because I'm worried about my eyeballs getting hot or getting cancer, but because girls really love a handheld microphone and when they see that sexy hand. microphone and explain to them that your radio can transmit 25 watts, they will eat chicken nuggets and corn dogs out of your hand.

Now this radio is an FCC part 90 radio aka LMR radio and I'm sure all the members of the fcc youtube division are probably already breaking their fingers leaving a comment telling us that if I or you use this radio you will go to jail or get a very big fine and everyone would be wrong, the fcc says that you need a commercial license to broadcast on this type of radio that I operate with, but the FCC also says that anyone can use this radio or any radio to protect life or property, for example, in an emergency situation when no other means of communication are available. and that's why so many tuners are interested in this type of high

power

radio, so when you purchase your set of two hys heists 25 watt portable radios, you will receive two of everything I show you, so no It's not It is necessary to continue pointing out that you get two of everything, you will receive two user manuals.

It is more of a fold-out brochure for the user than a manual. It is written in very poor English but explains the basic operations and will allow you to start using your set of two new 25 watt radios, you will receive a belt clip made of very sturdy thick plastic that attaches to the back of the radio, not to the back of the battery, you will receive this beautiful wrist strap. one battery charger two battery chargers remember we are getting two of everything both the battery charger and the battery have four pins so I think this is a smart charger but it doesn't say anything in the short user leaflet you will receive a battery charger adapter for said charger which connects to the back of the charger, so the other end goes to the hole in the wall to provide electrical power to charge the battery or the radio which is placed in the charger, so You will receive this whip antenna, the antenna is tuned for the 400 megahertz uhf band, it is black to match the radio and is very large, it measures 15 inches when measured from the base, you will receive one battery, this is a 12 battery volts and 4,000 milliamp hours, this is a battery and you will receive the highest 25 watt hys portable uhf lmr walkie talkie radio.

It is a very simple design. There is no screen. It only has two on/off and volume knobs and a channel selector. It has 16 channels. Antenna hole only. Here you have three programmable buttons. It has a push to talk button, a small microphone hole, I'll talk more about that in a minute, it uses a standard K type connector which is behind this sealed door, you can use any Bow Fang radio type cable to program it, I use my wookson . ocean programming cable affiliate link below it is very sturdy it feels very heavy even without the battery it is made of very strong I don't know abs some kind of I don't quote myself on that I don't know if they are abs it is a thick plastic, durable and very sturdy, doesn't feel cheap or flimsy at all, feels very durable and sturdy.

One thing this walkie talkie has that no other walkie talkie I've used has is a fan on the back which is a bit fany in there, all you attentive viewers may notice it looks like the Lexan Lichen Note radio , probably comes from the same child slave labor camp in China, however this one is more kid friendly, I think this one comes with 25 percent less beatings. There is no IP rating for this radio so it is not waterproof, probably not very dustproof. IP stands for ingress protection. The word entry means to enter. In a previous video I made the unthinkable mistake of saying intrusion protection instead of ingress protection and boy did it do everything.

The know-it-alls left me alone for making such an egregious mistake, so thanks to everyone who left comments and corrected me. No one cares, but everyone got a gold star for the day and their mom is so proud. The first thing I noticed is that the battery is very tight, it's hard to put it in, it slides like that, but to achieve that at the time, it worked pretty well on both. It took me a lot to get it the first time and get it out. it's just as hard, it has a little release mechanism here that you push and then at the same time you slide and try not to take your nails off once the battery is in, it's very tight, it's very hard to get it off, that shouldn't be a big problem.

Unless you have a bunch of spare batteries and plan to change them frequently, the antenna turns on easily, I'm not going to put it in because then it would be stinging your eye all the time. it means the little thingy is sticking out of the female hole here it screws in easily no problem as i mentioned it has only 16 channels which you can select from the channel selector knob it comes pre programmed with frequencies there and ct css tones than on a radio

gmrs

would be a problem, but in this type of radio out of the box it is designed to talk to the other radio, so that is not really a problem.

It is a broadband radio, all the frequencies it comes with are preset for you. You can use the software to change them to narrowband. The channels are also preset to high power, so when you take it out of the box and start talking, it transmits at 25 watts, has repeater capability, and tone splitting, but you need the software. and the cable to do that the software is very simple to use it's free it really only has two screens if you have ever used any programming software you will understand how it works very quickly the software allows you to add channels set up repeaters set the mute to various other settings as well It has a very cool feature called Lease which allows you to set a self destruct time on the radio, for example you can set the lease to expire after 24 hours and after 24 hours the radio turns into a brick until you turn it back on. connect to the software and unlock it.

You can also set a password so that you can't unlock it without the password. I have no idea why anyone would want to do that if you know a good reason to set it up. a self destruct on your radio leave a comment let me know and yes the most important feature possibly more important than being able to transmit it supposedly up to 25 watts we are going to test it has a roger beep and it is very happy three tone optimistic beep, So are the power output claims true? I have connected the radio to my surecom sw 102 swr and to my power meter which has a 50 watt dummy load connected.

I'll broadcast the radio at medium low and high on the meter and we'll see the power output right there. I am currently on a

gmrs

frequency. I think we will be at 467,700 at low power. You can program the power levels per channel and I program the buttons on the side of mine. to switch between high, medium and low and the LED indicator light on the top tells you what power level it's at so we'll start on low and see what we get 5.5 watts. Now I set the radio to medium. power, so let's see what we get from 9.9 to 10 watts, all right, now let's try a high power of 14.3 watts and all the experts are jumping up and down saying, look, we told you that the cheap Chinese radio in They couldn't actually produce 25 watts, but they would.

Be wrong, most radios do not put out the same power across the entire frequency band, there is usually a center where they put out the most power and then it drops off further in either direction and I found in my testing that this radio excels at the lower frequencies. . so if I change the radio to a lower frequency like 421.9 which happens to be channel 13 on this radio and then we test it we will see 23.4 watts pretty close to 25 watts so yes this radio is capable of broadcasting approximately 25 watts. watts 23.2 watts close enough, but the big question is how many distant cans it talks with 25 watts and this big antenna.

I was able to talk to my friend Chris at simplex 10 miles away. My friend Conrad 13 miles away. I was able to reach my two. favorite repeaters 30 and 69 miles away it was all very easy for this radio and the big whip antenna we needed a bigger challenge so I asked my friend conrad conrad the chef to get in his car and start driving heading east, so Conrad began his journey east in his car using his mobile radio with a larger antenna on the roof and was able to drive 23 miles until he ran into the mountains. I like this radio, but even this one can't go through mountains at 23 miles.

He was still able to hear me using this radio and this whip antenna as he made his trip while he was still closer, he could still hear me fine on low and medium power, but as he got further away around the 15 mile mark or so he couldn't. to hear me on low power I switched to medium power, he could hear me a little further away but as he got further past the 20 mile mark he could no longer hear me on low or medium power and I had to switch to high power for him. to hear me, then heard me loud and clear, so over those longer distances, beyond 15 and 20 miles, the difference between a puny little 5 watt radio and a very manly 25 watt radio makes a difference.

The more the merrier, so a few other Things about this radio while I was talking to Conrad during his trip east, the fan came on, it generates some heat, I didn't feel any heat on the outside, it didn't get hot at all, it was It felt like cold, dead plastic. all the time but the fan came on it was very quiet I couldn't even hear it I had to put it up to my ear to really hear it and the other problem the other complaint the microphone turned up my volume when they were listening to me on the other end It was very quiet, easily overcome by talking closer, but I really had to get it closer to my noise hole and enunciate properly so they would stop complaining that I was whispering.

This can be a good thing if you are outdoors if it's windy or noisy that's good, otherwise it's a bit of a problem. Probably the only problem I have with this radio is that I really had to shout and project from my noise hole about the battery life, another potential problem in a radio with this much power, I'm sure all the experts, the experts who have never If you have used this radio, you will say that the battery will die in minutes, but in fact, the 4000 milliamp hour battery lasted me all day. I had it on since I woke up very early in the morning, around 10am. m., I had it on all day until 8 p.m. m. transmitting testing almost all day at high power listening more than talking, but I transmitted a lot and transmitting at highpower because there is no screen or anything to indicate the battery level, it has a warning beep when it reaches 10 or 12 percent, I think after 9 or 10 hours of listening all day talking a lot, I never got the battery rate low so the battery lasts contrary to what many of the experts who have never used the radio will tell us so if you buy a set of these two 25 watt radios if you want power then yes my only complaint about this radio, these radios in plural is the tight battery, what really took me some effort to turn it on and then more effort to turn it off again and the other minor problem is the low microphone volume, those are the only two problems with the radio It puts out the power that says yes, it can talk at many distances, so if you want a portable radio with maximum power, this could be the radio for you.
