Product Reviews

KristinVery capable radio at a great priceReviewed on Mar 14,2025I ordered this radio when it is released, maybe I am the first person to order it. The Retevis MA1 is performing very well but I've only had it for a few hours. It's not a cheap looking build and feels solid. Really high power 50Watts.AriesGreat Radio for the priceReviewed on Mar 14,2025Great Radio, easy to install, love having this within reach in the car.BarretAdaptable to your vehicle with detachable faceplateReviewed on Mar 14,2025Detachable faceplate and crossband repeater function is awesome.MerleI love this radioReviewed on Mar 14,2025I love it! Nice radio for the money. I noticed there are some issues from other people's reviews online. We will see... Good power output and very nice features. It is a good looking and good sounding radio..DorisGreat Quad Band RadioReviewed on Mar 14,2025I am not sure what or why some of the feature ratings really apply. How do you judge sheerness or thickness? Well, the radio is not all that thick, maybe less than 2 inches. Size wise it is good for a mobile radio as it has the detachable front. But I am using it as a base station with a TekPower 23 amp power supply and it seems to be doing great. However, this one seems to be doing really well as I mentioned. I would recommend it as there are not that many Quad band radios available for this price range. You could get one of the Quad Band radios which are 25 watts for about half the price, but then you may only get about 20 - 25 miles range.ThomasSo Far So GoodReviewed on Mar 14,2025I purchased this to be used as a cross band repeater. Simple set up. Works great.GloriaImpressive !Reviewed on Mar 14,2025I'm using this Radio as a Base Station and I'm able to reach Repeaters as far as 40 miles away consistently. The scan feature allows me to hear conversations on 12 repeaters. Programming manually isn't and issue. After using this radio as a base for several months, I'm looking for a Quad Band that includes the 220 mhz. instead of 6 meters that has no repeaters in my area.VivianHappy with my first base station radioReviewed on Mar 14,2025i am using this Retevis MA1 as a base station. I have a few HT but this is my first base/mobile unit. It can pick up weaker signals and reach more repeaters then the handhelds I have. I picked this transceiver because I wanted the remote head to let me mount the radio body by the antenna and have the controls on my desk. This radio does more then I need it to do for a really good price.
