Spec5 Raider

Raider- 2 Thumbs Up!

What a beautiful looking radio!! Love the extra output and larger battery. This is what will be in the wife’s car the next time she goes to the beach with her sister. Then the 1 watt node build that I’m working on will go up on a 20ft pole at the house. Both of these should greatly improve my coverage. I love tactical looking gear, and this scores a “10” in that department! Good job Spec5 people!!

Meshcore Monster

I have built my own radios and repeaters. But this time I just wanted to let someone else worry about all the details. I must say, they did exactly that. Their choices in layout, hardware components, and even the printed protective armor created a very nice package. If you're looking for a turnkey, tough, reliable, well thought out, and powerful monster for meshcore communication this is it. The GPS is rock solid and the lora radio cuts through even at ridiculous 500khz bandwidth limitations. Bluetooth has been 100% reliable even at distances I thought it should have disconnected. Tech support is responsive to questions, knowledgable and very helpful. Overall I am very satisfied so far. (This is an initial review of an item I purchased a couple of weeks from the time of writing this review, and currently using in my own network. This is not a long term review.)

Ultimate emergency first response unit!
