This is a FANTASTIC deal. The Anytome AT-D878UVII Plus is a very feature rich and well made radio for the price, and the Bridgecom University course that comes with it is top tier. It made programming the radio and setting it up exactly how I wanted it a breeze, and all of your information comes from one source so there’s no need to open 15 tabs to learn to do one thing. Thanks for the amazing value and all the help you provided, Bridgecom! 73, de KQ4VKM.
This speaker mic sounds clear and works well with the 878UVII Plus.
Very happy with Bridgecom Plus membership and the videos are numerous and informative. Concise and to the point, I am very satisfied with the information presented. Regardless of what level of experience you may have, a few months of Plus will give you a solid understanding of your radio and how best to operate it.
I'm loving the D168 so far! It's like a more affordable and compact D878! DMR has come a long way! Got the OnTheTrailRadio Approval!
5 star
I bought the AnyTone 578UVIII PLUS Tri-Band Mobile and BT-01 handheld/remote head.
At the time i bought it the web site said both were in stock, I received the radio in 3 days but had to ask where the BT-01 was 3 times before I was then told it was on back order. I got it 2 weeks after the radio.
I have no issue with things being unavailable or on back order but i do have issue with not being told up front.
All that said the customer service gets a 5, even though it took me a few times to get my answer every interaction was pleasant, helpful and responsive.
The training class was good and it was easy to follow and informative.
The radio so far is outstanding, it does everything I wanted in a radio and more
I purchased the RT systems software and find I like the Anytone software better, if you are a big excel user i think you will find the Anytone software better.
The BT-01 is great, it takes a little work to get it how you like it but after that it is a very good addition to the 578.
The issues I have found with the BT01 are
1- The display brightness is 1-5, 1-4 is dim and 5 is very bright
2- It cuts out some of the key-up tone
3- The speaker pops on every button press and TX or RX
4- Would like separate volume and channel controls
With all that above I am still thinking of another 578/BT-01 combo for my house to use as a base radio. Overall the combo of the 2 is great and with the radio and BT01 being able to be firmware upgraded maybe the issues I have will be fixed in a future release.
More than I expected. Happy with the information and support I am receiving. Very pleased. The tech group is great and easy to work with.
I did get the plug and play. Package I just got to call tech to help with it.
I love how quick and simple the installation process was. for Within minutes, I was able to start using it without any complicated steps. This product definitely delivers on ease of use -- Lee McElroy
Looked new and functioned as new. Solid radio and great price!
Not useful (almost useless) unless you are fully conversant with code plug programming. Needs a lot of work (configuration) to function the user's region. BridgeCom probably has hundreds of these code plugs on file, preconfigured for purchasers of their systems. Why not offer an Ultra plug that is set up for a user’s region, just like they do with their radios. It would save those new to DMR a LOT of headaches.
Sorry to hear that, but we don't have regional code plugs because we don't make those.
Nice piece of equipment, would like to have mic and earphone on head set?
This product works well just as it is described. Was a good selection.
The tech support was very good, He found the problem with the radio within 5 minutes of starting. He made sure that I got repair work order and radio replacement. Got new radio and works like a champ. Very happy with there tech support.
Easy to follow and very well done!!!
We are looking at this radio for a search and rescue team, needing analog, digital, and DMR. Works well on the amateur radio dmr. Seems to have a lower mic gain on analog public safety. Challenging trying to program for a commercial TRBO system although I expected some difficulties. Still tweeking the programming. For ham users great radio, for commercial overall good except on the TRBO system.
Bc plus is a great value. The videos help with the products.
Case fits well on the device and does not limit any functionality
I use this case every weekend while working at my job as a railroad conductor. It assures that my radio is always on the right channel and that it’s never going to fall or get lost.
First off thans Jeremiah for hetting me setup to use the computer control software.than helps ALOT!
The 12 volt mobile charging device is very well made and works great.
