Tony ShihNice mobile repeater.Reviewed on Feb 01,2025As advertised. Good quality and great value of paired with proper antenna.Thomas BrownGreat RepeaterReviewed on Jan 23,2025Very simply to set up -- basically plug it in, hook up an antenna, and select your desired repeater frequency pair ( it can be done on the unit itself without a computer -- or use the computer and select specific info). Works great. Make note that as with any GMRS repeater range is going to depend on location and height of your antenna! Great price considering it's everything you need except for the antenna!!KippConvenient to useReviewed on Jan 07,2025Great gmrs repeatermarjorie kenyonMaximize your range! Great mobile repeater!Reviewed on Dec 31,2024Be sure to download the program software and make it your own! Great mobile repeater! Just works once programmed to your channels and tones!Range varies.. Thanks Retevis!CraigRT97S For Family EmergenciesReviewed on Dec 30,2024I purchased an RT97S several months ago to have communications with my children that that live within the valley. Installed in my upstairs bedroom with a J-Pole antenna mounted a few feet above the edge of my roof. I live on a hillside near the north end of a lake and from my roof have a clear view of the valley. I have been able to open the repeater from over 25 miles away at the south end of the lake. I was not able to test the audio quality, But I was very surprised to hit the repeater from there. Audio quality is generally good. Bought and installed an IDer to make it legal to use in the USA. Plan to connect it to a backup battery for emergency use.Tom12 mile range so far in the gmrs band.. over water to a 2 watt walkie-talkieReviewed on Dec 28,2024The machine works very well.. I have it hooked to a six element UHF beam antenna.. which radiates the 10 watts up to figuring 90 Watts.. about $100 for the antenna antenna.. high grade coaxial cable MPD digital.. $120 for the cable.. with BTech handheld walkie-talkies.. 4to5 watt output.. 3to5 MI. My Midland 40 watt.mobile have only tested into the three to five mile range range.. I have their 6db gain magnetic Mount antenna.. avery good and clean audio.. the more one can put into the antenna and cable the better this unit works.. also have a 7db gain vertical ground plane antenna.. radiating about 40 Watts(all antennas need to have a standing wave ratio of 1.5 or lower.. one must buy the appropriate antenna and cable) with the same high grade cable.. haven't tested it fully yet.. I'm in the gmrs band.. with a license .. very good unit you cannot go wrong with it.. quick answers with support.. update.. across the water 12 miles to the horizen with a 2 watt walkie-talkie.. two to three miles inland in the trees and houses with the walkie-talkie.. this is all done standing outside of a vehicle.. mobile radios in the vehicles get 7 mi inland.. Update the machine is still working.. 20 mile on the boat on the 2nd story.. 5 W walkie talkie and Ant. just slightly higher her at 53'..Mervin HarrellGood BuyReviewed on Dec 26,2024I use a Retevis RT97S to extend my GMRS radio. I've been pretty happy with it. 3/4 of the way up a hill, I generally get a couple of miles, sometimes more depending on direction.IvorWorks greatReviewed on Dec 24,2024I achieved a 15 km range consistently after mounting it on a high hill.
