Conclusions

The Radioddity GD-77 is actually a decent little radio for the price and if you are looking for an affordable DMR radio that can also do both 2m and 70cm, it is absolutely worth considering. If I had the money, I would opt for the Alinco DJ-MD5 as it is clearly superior in pretty much any metric you want to use, but it is also twice the price of the Radioddity.

On the other side, the BaoFeng DM-1801 is virtually the same radio for almost $30 cheaper. Yes, the Radioddity GD-77 feels a little better made, but that may not matter to you.

Overall, this is a good DMR radio, and you probably will not be upset if you purchase it. The superior support of this radio including easy access to manuals, faqs, and software from Radioddity certainly makes it appealing.

Would I recommend the Anytone AT-D878UVII Plus? If you want a high quality, feature-rich DMR radio, this is the radio you want. Yes, it is expensive compared to other DMR radios. Yes, it has more features, a better transmitted signal, and a higher build quality than any other.

Is this the best digital radio? For me, I’ll keep my Kenwood TH- D74. I like the menu, screen, keys, and wideband receive. That being said, the Kenwood is not a DMR radio and is considerably more expensive. This Anytone radio has 90% of the Kenwood’s capabilities, comes with a drop in charger in the box, and cost about half as much. It is simply an amazing radio.
