Radio Showdown: Anytone vs. The New Radio Features! #shorts
Comparing radio features: power, contacts, Bluetooth, GPS, and roaming channels. Get the inside scoop on which radio is the better deal for your needs.
Vero’s done it again. They’ve just bypassed the big three with something better, cheaper and modern… and what are they going to do about it? Probably just ignore it as usual.
But we’re smart and we’ll get the gear that makes us happy, not the gear they tell us is "right". Let’s go!

Can a 10-Meter Export Rig Actually Hang with the Big Boys?
Today we’re checking out the Retevis HS4, a 10-meter export radio that looks like a classic CB but hides a surprisingly capable HF transceiver inside.
I’ll walk through the unboxing, setup, programming, and real-world contacts, including a live QSO from southeast Arizona using just 40 watts into the 10-meter band.
We’ll also see how it handles:
• Power output and SWR performance
• USB programming and software quirks
• Digital mode integration with the TOADs DI interface
• 10-meter repeater programming using RepeaterBook
• Real SSB and FM contacts across the country
If you’ve ever wondered whether a “10-meter export radio” is worth it — or just a glorified CB — this video will show you what it really can do.

TYT 9800: Quad Band Radio Review and Experiment! #shorts
Is the TYT 9800 quad-band radio still a bag of tricks? Exploring its cross-band capabilities and full duplex potential. Can it unlock 11 meters? The experiment begins!
Your Attenuator is LYING to You. Here’s How to Prove It.
Everyone uses the NanoVNA to tune antennas and check SWR… but today we’re doing something way cooler. I’m using the NanoVNA-F V2 to X-ray an RF attenuator and find out whether it’s actually doing what the label claims — or whether I’ve been feeding fake values into my TinySA and destroying my test results.
🛠️ GEAR FEATURED:
👉 NanoVNA-F V2 (50kHz–3GHz): https://geni.us/hAZP
Take an additional 5% off from 11-5 to 11-30-25 with code RU9DM3TY
👉 20dB attenuators: https://geni.us/E7K7p3o
👉 40dB attenuators: https://geni.us/Pz4Bdf
📎 GET THE CHEAT SHEET:
The exact step-by-step bench workflow shown in this video is available as a printable PDF here: https://temporarilyoffline.com/blogs/tos-blog/stop-guessing-start-measuring
In this video you’ll learn:
✅ How to calibrate the NanoVNA for S21 attenuation measurements
✅ How to test fixed attenuators AND step attenuators
✅ How to tell good RF hardware from “Amazon special garbage”
✅ How many dB your attenuator really provides (not just what it says)
✅ How to protect your spectrum analyzer or SDR before you blow it up
If you ever test radios, amplifiers, filters, or harmonic suppression, this method will save you both money and gear.
