A couple of weeks ago I bought a TidRadio TD-H3 radio.  So far I like the little thing.  It has a lot of fancy features.  Here are my favorite such features:

USB C Charging!  YAY!  For the life of me I can't understand why other radio makers don't enable USB C charging.  It's SO convenient.  No need to find a cradle and connect to grid power with a wall wort.  I can charge from a power brick or my computer or a wall charger port, too.  I LOVE IT!

Four ways to program the radio!  Yep, FOUR.  And then you can use CHIRP via either the Old School two prong cable or a normal USB C cable.  Finally, there's a Bluetooth app called Odmeter that lets you program right from your phone.  I prefer CHIRP but the other methods have their madness, too. Of course, if you're REALLY Old School, you can program right off the HT keyboard, too.

Air Band!  Yeppers--the full air band frequency range can be programmed into the radio for receive purposes only.  The radio even comes with a dedicated Air Band antenna.  How good is that?  Very good!

Form Factor:  I like the radio's Form Factor in my hand.  It's not too big or too small.  It's just right.

User Support:  Pretty much every amateur radio has a dedicated user group or two or three or more.  The TD-H3 users have already created a robust tribe with all the obligatory self-help videos, Facebook groups and so forth.  They are VERY Friendly and not yet too jaded  by the repetitive newbie questions that plague all such tribes.

Customer Service:  Before I bought the radio I actually emailed TidRadio Support to see if they would reply and they DID!  They seems to be very dedicated to listening to user input and righting the various wrong any new radio iteration is bound to have.  So far I am duly impressed with the company's customer service.

NOTE:  We are NOT one of those blogs that wants you to click on a "BUY" link.  We do not get a kickback from ANYBODY and our blog/website will always be free of such annoyances.  So, we are not going to include any links to any TidRadio websites or vendors.  You're old enough to know how to find them if you want them and we'll leave it at that.
