Radtel RT-880/iRadio UV-98 Plus - The LONG (In Depth) Review!

The Radtel RT-880/iRadio UV-98 Plus is a budget multiband handheld that can transmit across a wide range of frequencies all the way through from 18 MHz right up to 520 MHz. It also has full HF spectrum recieve in AM, FM and SSB through a secondary receiver with a dedicated antenna port.

3 VFO's, 1024 Memories, Zones (banks), Large Colour Screen and even the ability to be used as a simple UV Crossband Repeater. All this plus a huge amount of options. Probably the nearest competitor to Quansheng's TK-11 (and using the same HF RX chipset, the Si4732).

Warning! This is a long review due to the amount of areas covered in one video. Feel free to skip to the sections that interest you the most. Chapter points are provided if you scroll down in this description or use the points that are generated in the video itself.
