Compact design mini size, two frequency bands can be selected according to different regions and scenarios, compatible with digital and analog modes, achieves more powerful functions.
Uses Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) Tier 2 Standard protocol. It is compatible with the popular MOTO TRBO series Tier I and II using standard encryption, It is also compatible with any existing analog two way radio operating on the supported UHF and VHF frequencies for easy migration to digital technology.
Up to 3000 channels, supports importing contact information, for extremely complex organizational communications.
Comes with a 2000mAh large capacity rechargeable battery, supports 16 hours of working time and 48 hours of standby.
GPS gives you a clear idea of your location even in the wild, use it to find your way or to help others find you.
Lone worker is an employee who performs an activity that is carried out in isolation from other workers without close or direct supervision, helping people minimize risk and injury.
One Machine for Dual Use, analog mode and digital mode combined in RT3S, can communicate with analog radio or digital radio.
You can easily read the channel/zone/time/power/function prompt/menu and so on, be visible, so more convenient.
We promise excellent quality, better after-sale service to every customer friend, winning more good ratings and confidence support!
QA1: How many versions of RT3S are there?
RT3S has two versions, one with GPS and one without GPS.
QA2: How RT3S works with other radios?
RT3S is a digital and analog mode radio, it supports dual band reception and transmission, compatible with other radios. In analog mode, you need to set the same frequency and CTCSS/DCS code to communicate.
QA3: Is the RT3S compatible with other DMR radios?
It is compatible with the popular MOTO TRBO series Tier I and II using standard encryption, as well as other makes and models of DMR supported radios.
QA4: Does RT3S have waterproof function?
It is not quite waterproof but it is resistant to splashes of water, if you are looking for a ham radio with waterproof function, you can choose the same type RA89 with IP68 waterproof.
QA5: How can I get the latest firmware content?
You can click "Support" -- "Firmware/Software" to download the firmware, and we will update the latest version on the website in real time.

NOTE:
RT3S is a well built radio, perfect size and weight. Feels more solid than the radio this replaced. Has both analog and digital/DMR capabilities which I use extensively. Took a while to set the RT3S up and troubleshoot the bands, I didn't know I had to push and hold the 2 side buttons to access (unlock) the US amateur frequencies. Once I figured that out (a lot of google searching) every channel analog and digital has worked perfectly. The programming software is easy to use. I took the RT3S for a road trip recently and it picked up all the repeaters enroute, I'm very impressed with this unit. Thank you Retevis for the excellent product, communication and service.
I received the RT3S with GPS and it was very well packaged. I purchased this specifically to work with FM radio satellites. I am pleased with its performance. I included a note on my website about my new use of this radio. I will think of retevis when I have future radio needs to purchase.
The web pages show the radio operating in the amateur radio bands. I am a canadian amateur radio operator (ve3ppe). Instead, the radio seems to only allow the "general spec" of 150-160 MHz and 450-460 MHz programming--completely outside of my bands. Thus, I realize that the radio, as shipped, is useless to me. Another, earlier gps-rt3s I own with the same hardware rev (v03.0) is programmable over a useful range. Then I contacted support, and Grace told me the steps to expand the frequency band. (Press the two side buttons to turn on the radio, and it can be used normally after spreading the frequency band.) Her advice was precisely what I needed. Now, I can use the radio exactly as I had intended. Very good service and radio!
I purchased a Retevis RT3S which I am enjoying a lot and its working well. Do you sell a leather case for the RT3S? Also, does this Battery Eliminator for the RT3 also work on the RT3S?
I was having trouble with the usb driver, I finally found a link and downloaded the correct driver, all is good, I really do appreciate your help and assistance with the radio. Very satisfied and passing on kudos to ham club and members.
Very good product! Great quality!
