Who Is This Radio Even For?

Post author By admin

Who Is This Radio Even For?

This radio is confusing… and that’s the point.

On paper, the AnyTone AT-5289 II looks like a 10-meter mobile.
In practice, it behaves like something else entirely.

👉 Anytone AT-5289 II: https://geni.us/s3Lo3n
👉 ATU 100 Antenna Tuner: https://geni.us/EkazAV
👉 Screwdriver Kit: https://geni.us/OilK

👉 Check the premium Geekom Mini Computers: https://geni.us/y8uCVl
Winter Sale 7% Sitewide Coupon: TemGK7

👉 Lever-Pole Recipe:
1. 12ga solid wire: https://geni.us/kOAGLr
(NOTE: Trim it exact!)
2. Anderson Power Poles w/Crinper: https://geni.us/bqfprDt
3. Lever Nuts: https://geni.us/nE412y3
4. Wire Strippers: https://geni.us/LejLm
(NOTE: They cut wire too…)
5. Glue Lined Heat Shrink Tubing: https://geni.us/7kUwOL

It has:
• A VFO you can spin
• A CB-channel/band style layout
• Separate RX and TX tones
• AM and FM only
• No repeater split (by design)

And yes… it can be modded into a CB.

So what is this radio actually for?

In this video, I walk through:
• A quick unboxing and physical overview
• Power and basic performance checks
• What the radio won’t do (and why that matters)
• Who this radio makes sense for — and who should absolutely skip it

10 meters was quiet during filming, but that actually helped reveal the real intent behind this radio. This isn’t a repeater rig. It’s not a DX tool. And it’s definitely not trying to be a traditional ham radio.

Think simplex, local comms, truck-to-truck, off-road, or CB-adjacent users who want more control.

If you judge it as a bad ham radio, you’re probably right.
If you judge it on what it was actually built to do… it starts to make a lot more sense.

This ATAS-120 Was Dead… Until This Repair

Repairing a Yaesu ATAS 120 Motorized Mobile Antenna

I have a friend, I’ll call him Tuje (pronounced Tooge). He has decades of experience in commercial VHF/UHF radio communications. He wants to share his knowledge, but he also wants to remain anonymous. I offered to host his videos on my channel. So here is another video in an ongoing series of helpful videos, primarily relating to VHF communications, but certainly not limited to that topic.

Maybe throwing more money at a radio hobby is the key. Or maybe it’s time to admit defeat. The age-old question: Is it the gear or the user?
