I've played with both the orginal ATS-20 and the later ATS-25. This is a clear upgrade to both of those radios. Reception is improved, the software is less buggy, and the list of features has certainly grown.

    Just love your videos, the intro, the name of your channel lol, don't ever change the channel name it cracks me up. I have one of you coffee cups with the little garden tractor, I laugh to myself every morning when I pick it up - priceless, and your product reviews are the best !!!
  • That’s a very good price for what you get. I built a hobby version of a receiver using a Raspberry Pi computer, receiver board, mini screen and battery pack. It was close to the price of that and nowhere near as slick an interface as it has.

    I have the ATS25X1 and could not be happier. Apparently you can upgrade the software and get the MAX's digital features too. Put this on an MLA-30+ and I get everything. Having the right antenna nearly triples the stations you can receive with this radio. I would honestly recommend this as a beginner radio for anyone interested in getting in to short wave listening.

    Just received mine a couple weeks ago from BangGood. It’s my first ATS 25 type of receiver and it is loaded with features. Experiment with decent antennas or long wire antenna to get the full package of reception. MW does need an antenna since of course there is no internal ferrite bar. Interesting little radio, I’m still exploring all it has to offer. But remember, antenna is KEY with this receiver.

    its a great improvement i have the ats 20+ this add at least extra +++ to the ats now 73s.
  • @thestonerguy5276
    I would have liked to have seen how well it decodes FT8 and CW, otherwise, seeing the various functions was nice. Thanks for the video.
  • With the exception of the tuning knob, it seems to be more like a phone or a tablet than a radio. Maybe I'm just more old school. I'm actually thinking about buying a Drake R8 (R8A or R8B) series radio but probably the R8B. Then I'll just grab the signals from the sky like stars from the sky. 💪👊
  • @alexkanavos6470
    You said that it has a decoder for digital modes. Does that include Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM)? Also, does it have noise reduction like other makes and models of self-contained software defined radios do?

    Most of those Lids on 40 meters came from the Chicken Band
  • @billkyle693
    I have the first version of the ATS25 and it has terrible screen noise interference which caused me to put it on the shelf. I think you covered that in your initial review. Does this new one have the same issue or has that been resolved?

    Hey, just saw your channel, what part of NC are you in? My area doesn’t appear to have a Ham repeater, looking for other options. Thks
  • @KTS-UK
    Hey there! Great review, I am in the UK and as a result of your review I bought one. It just arrived today. I managed to connect the wifi but could not find a way of updating it. I tried to follow the firmware update guide on their site but it is outdated. Mine came with firmware build 4.17 air beta and I know there is a new one out. Is there a guide to updating anywhere? Thanks so much!
  • @ocsrc
    Does it decode Phase 2 digital P25 700 trunked systems and DMR ?
  • @Danimalanimal258
    Where can we find that to buy? That might be a good prepper video
  • @CrazyMike²
    Now that’s a radio I could spend my money on if I had any extra money
  • @gambiarra1607
    Tenho o modelo AMP e não consigo atualizar o firmware
  • @ocsrc
