Always a great customer experience with Bridgecom
I owned this radio several years ago but had to sell due to financial reasons. I loved this radio and I really missed having it. Now I'm back on my feet and I just purchased again. This is one of the best handheld radio's I've ever owned and this one I'll never sell, lol. : )
My order shipped right away and arrived promptly. It worked immediately out of the box.
I purchased my first one of these AnyTone 578 radios about six months ago. I use it as a Ham Radio base station, as well as a Police Scanner. It works incredibly well with my rooftop antenna. The radio is built like a tank!
BridgeCom Systems Customer Service was (is) FANTASTIC helping me through my learning curve with this radio.
> I liked my first 578UVIII Plus radio so much, that I purchased a second one to put in my truck. I already programmed the 2nd radio by simply copying my existing Code Plug from my first radio. Since they are identical radios with the same firmware, this took only seconds!
I strongly recommend this AnyTone 578 radio.
I strongly recommend BridgeCom Systems.
From the first call unexpected from Richmond Padraque, all the questions answered at the moment the follow up calls, making the order to received the package , programming was little confusing but then Jeremiah (W9JAM) send me a email with the correct links that’s an A+ in service and care for the customer.
Learning slowly since Im new on DMR but the videos are very explained and step by step I’m getting there.
Thanks Bridgecom
The availability of the Maverick Emergency pack was a wise choice . Having another battery is always advisable. The price was good and shipping was fast .
The Skybridge Max paired with the Bridgecom Maverick is simply awesome. I have already worked several rare stations around the world that I just could not get contacts from on HF. I highly recommend the Maverick and the Skybridge Max. Together they are an unbeatable combination.

Easy setup. It all worked the first time.
I like the features on this radio in particular the satellites mode.
Good audio quality both xmt and rcv. Handy volume control and earphone jack for privacy or noisy environments.
It has the most popular channels programed in it when it shows up.
95% ready to play. There were a couple of things I didn't grasp, but a call to tech support got me 2 things. My problem solved and a simple explantion to understand what & why.
Of course the repeater and duplexer setup is first-quality commercial-grade equipment. But Bridgecom customer service is totally over the top! Thank you folks!!
i did NOT get accass t the niversity you brag so much about. Next time buy a Biyfabg
i bought my 220 repeater anp from henry amps. nice looking amp. however it lasted 6 months. it cost me 120 bucks to return it. when it was returned it lasted 3 months. i hope everyone has better luck than i did.
Great little rig good for all timers and easy enough to use for new hands. I would recommend this rigged to anyone job well done.
I cannot change from vfo to memories i have installed rt systems, is there a simple way to switch from vfo to memories without a computer? just a few key presses ?
Hi,
To use the VFO/MR function, you'll first need to assign it to one of the programmable keys.
On the radio, go to:
Menu → Settings → Radio Set → Key Func
Then select the programmable key you'd like to use and set its function to 'VFO/MR.'
Once assigned, you can use that key to switch between VFO and Memory (MR) modes.
Please let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
DMR still confusing and online videos do not have all the answers. For instance, does each call group need its own disconnect, or will the generic PC 4000 work for any/all groups to disconnect?
I love everything I have received. I was exciting as everything came in.
BridgeCom Systems did a great job at communicating about the shipping adjustment, and it was delivered as pomised.
