New VGC-VR-N7500 Mobile Amateur Radio 1:29
A few years ago, a company called VGC introduced a mobile radio to the market called the VR-N5700.

We discuss the reintroduction of a bill proposed to Congress in 2023 to allow ham radio operators to erect antennas in deed restricted communities, and the grass roots effort to get it passed. We’ll also take some of your comments and questions from our blog, YouTube channel and our Forum at TwoWayRadioForum dot com.

New Bills Introduced to Allow Ham Radio Antennas in HOAs 1:30
In 2023 a bipartisan bill Titled Amateur Radio Emergency Preparedness Act was introduced to the US House of Representatives. This bill proposed to amend the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit the application of certain private land use restrictions to amateur station antennas in HOAs. It didn’t pass. Now, the bill is back, and with it a grassroots effort to push it through legislation from none other than the ARRL.

How You Can Help Get The Bills Passed 37:00
1. Write Congress. The most direct action right now is to send letters to your Representative and both Senators using the ARRL tool at send-a-letter.org. Personalize your note with local emergency-comms experience if you have it. The ARRL page summarizes the bills, explains the need for their passage

2. Track the bills. Bookmark the Congress.gov pages for H.R. 1094 and S. 459 to monitor cosponsors and committee movement. Momentum builds when lawmakers see sustained constituent interest.

The New Baofeng DM-32UV Multi Band DMR Radio 1:19
Twelve years ago we discovered the original Baofeng UV-5R. While we weren't the first to carry the radio, we were fairly early adopters of what many consider to be the most iconic and most popular walkie talkie in the world. Since then, Baofeng has introduced a number of different and interesting radios, and many at a very modest price. They recently introduced a new model called the DM-32UV that looks and feels high end and at a very low cost, and it’s DMR.

We discuss the new Pennsylvania law that bans the use of handheld mobile devices and how it may affect two way radio operators across various services. We’ll also take some of your comments and questions from our blog, YouTube channel and our forum at twowayradioforum dot com.

Tariffs on Two Way Radios 1:25
On June 5 2025, Pennsylvania enacted Paul Miller’s Law. This new law bans the use of hand-held mobile devices in a vehicle, even when the vehicle is stationary. While many other states have hands-free laws, this one seems to be a little more concerning to mobile radio operators because it allows an exception for only one radio service and not the others. How will it affect the use of business, CB, GMRS and MURS mobile radio communications? Could this bring about the eventual end to on and off road mobile two way radios for those services as we know it?

Hands-Free Options For Radios 20:06
We have several hands-free options for two way radios that may be affected by Paul Miller’s Law.

Tariffs on Two Way Radios 1:28
The U.S.-China trade war has brought a lot of uncertainty for suppliers and users of two way radios in the first half of 2025. New tariffs were announced in February, there were sharp tariff increases in April, and suddenly, there was the surprise 90-day pause just announced in the past week. Could this latest truce between the two countries lead to a new trade deal or just delay another clash? How would it affect the affordability and availability of products related to radio communications? For an historical perspective, read the Phase One Economic and Trade Agreement of 2020.
