📻 TIDRADIO TD-H3 – 1 Year Later

I’ve been using the TD-H3 as my daily carry for the past year, and here’s a quick review based on real use:

👍 What I Like:

Compact and durable – fits in the pocket, holds up well

Color screen – bright and easy to read

USB-C charging – super convenient, charges fast anywhere

Battery life – I get 2+ days per charge

Multi-band receive – VHF, UHF, air band, FM, NOAA, etc.

Bluetooth + app programming – makes updates quick and easy

CHIRP support – works great for bulk edits and backups

👎 What Could Be Better:

Scan speed is a bit slow

Programming over USB-C can be hit or miss on some computers

A few friends had issues out of the box — mine has been solid though

✅ Final Thoughts:

After a year of daily use, I can say this little radio is reliable, easy to use, and packed with value for the price. Great for beginners, backups, or anyone who just wants a simple, solid HT.

Anyone else daily-driving this radio?
