ABBREE DM-F8 Digital Mobile Radio

The DM-F8 is a new entry into the Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) market, providing a more affordable option to those looking for the advantages of adding DMR capabilities to their communications package. Compatible with legacy Tier I & II DMR systems as well as having the capability to transmit in analog as well, the DM-F8 features the Kenwood two-prong plug microphone jack for backwards compatibility with Baofeng accessories. It has the simplest to use interface for front panel programming that I've seen on a DMR radio yet, and relatively simple to use software for programming as well. The compact form factor and easy controls make interfacing with a chest rig simple and its build quality is superior to most other radios in its price range. The software enables encryption and the creation of full talk groups. Radios feature text messaging capability as well as voice. These provide a solid, simple, and easy to use option for those on a budget or frustrated with more complex DMR radios
