Shockingly good little setup

The RT97 handles long-term energization well, maintaining stable performance even when powered continuously. Its 12V DC coil works smoothly, and the SPDT contacts manage low-power DC switching effectively. A solid choice for automation projects requiring constant operation.

Works as described

A belt clip, wrist lanyard, and corded earpiece are included for each of the radios along with a USB-C cable and brick. Construction is rugged, the radios seem to be quite sturdy

Nice cheap radio

I leave mine running 24/7 in the barn to cover our 200-acre farm. Only had to reset it once after a severe thunderstorm.

Too good to be true, what's the catch?

Consistent 5-mile wooded area performance. Excellent output using stock configuration.

Impressed

It's decent but not bulletproof. Mine took a 3-foot drop and the case cracked. Range is okay, but I'd pay extra for a more rugged version.

Good radio!

Black Friday bundle outperforms: 13-mile valley coverage achieved with included antenna at just 20' elevation.

Exceptional Radio

After trying three other brands, I finally found one that just works. The RT97 has been running continuously for 6 months without a single hiccup.
