Top 4 Must Have Accessories For The Anytone AT-D868UV

The Anytone AT-D868UV Is a fantastic radio by itself.

With these 4 accessories it turns into a universal super handheld, capable of handling any situation with ease.

Microphone

A good speaker microphone is a must for Increased clarity and convenience.

The BridgeCom BCS-200 Water Resistant Speaker Mic is perfect. It even has a port to plug an earpiece into!

Decreased wind noise even in gusty, stormy conditions. This remote speaker microphone for two way radios boast a revolutionary windporting feature that dramatically lessens background noise from high winds and other severe weather conditions.

Audio can pass through the speaker grill even when the microphone port is blocked by water. The clarity of this microphone can help public safety professionals communicate more clearly.

Antenna

If you want the most signal range and clarity out of your radio. An aftermarket antenna is a must. The factory antenna on the Anytone is pretty good, But it is still a rubber duck. If you really want to get the maximum range you need to get a high quality whip antenna

Like the Nagoya NA-771 15.6-Inch Whip or the Nagoya NA-701 8-Inch Whip.

Extra Battery

It is essential to always have a backup battery. Whether you at a field day or in an emergency situation, you never know when you'll need it.

Battery Eliminator

Great for in-vehicle use while you're on a long drive. Like driving across the country to Hamvention. A battery eliminator will provide you with unlimited power from your vehicle. That will save your batteries for the field.

Looking for an external Bluetooth speaker with built-in mic, that can be used in the vehicle.

I have a very old Garman GPS that works well with my iPhone, regardless of my settings it’s transmitted audio is not very good at all. I also have a set of earbuds that I use with my iPhone and they were good, their transmitted audio was even worse. Regardless of might gain settings I could not get good transmitted audio. So I’m looking for something relatively cheap perhaps something to even could be picked up at Walmart that would work. I cannot find any requirements for Bluetooth other than Cody’s video that said it doesn’t work well with devicesUse five pin keys. So anybody got any ideas or something or using please do it my way.

Thanks,

James DE W0PPD

We are using the AT-D868-UV for our CERT on a commercial frequency. Is there an antenna for the 450mHz – 470mHz that will work with it? Is there an antenna adaptor that we could use to connect an outside antenna with a Motorola Mini male connector?
