Thank you in seventy three, I hope you enjoy it. New icon ht we're here with rain O Vact. He's got tell us all about it. But we're gonna start with Jason's question first. Okay, I had the conversation. That's the first thing I thought us, who's teaching the D star one on one course? The other day? He goes, I'm calling
an ID fifty two light. I go, I jokingly said, yeah, you could consider it an ID fifty one mark two. G Okay, uh yeah, yeah. The thing is this is for somebody it's wanting to get into the hobby. We had a lot of debates about whether to go the rout of the ID thirty one again, where only I mean our second largest market. I call it second because United States, Canada and the America's being
the first. Japan has no two meter repeaters, right, so you're looking at UHF being extremely important for them, but it was mediocre here in the States, even though most of the D Star repeaters are on UHF. Now that there's more getting on two meters, the guys like the our generation repeater. It's analog and D Star, we decided to come out with the ID fifty. Pricing hasn't been set yet. It's got a lot of the features
that that people liked out of the ID fifty one series. I think it was ID No, it's the ID fifty two where we introduced dual DV dual watch, right. This one is like the fifty one where it does not so that's going to jokingly say it's like the Mark two g o O. There's a lot of fifty one features in this product that a lot of people were happy with. It does not have the color display. Um. It does have the waterfall feature for it, but it's going to be monotone,
okay. The user interface is that of the fifty two. They're using Gooey's for your hold it next to it size comparison. Really yeah, then hey, the knob fell off? Man, I don't know, and I mean I'm hard on my equipment though. You know how to get in touch with me to get a yeah? Yeah yeah, that would take some effort though. But that's your second one. What happened to the first one? No, as the as the zu I lost. I've always that's my that's my
that's my first one. That's my first one. You're welcome everyone for the shot. Well wait a minute, let let me let's go over here to a table to put it up. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I just realized I had one finger. Vat makes it look like. But let's let's imagine the fifty two. It has all its knobs on it there. Sorry, how do you obtain a free replacement knob for your already fifty two? I'm about to show you in this video right now? Oh no, he jip meat, Can I have that knob? When you're done with
it, I will send an email to get you a knob. I will thank you. So what you're saying, the feature wife's pretty much the same minus the screen. I'm minus the screen minus the color. You do not get the dual watch or the DV mode with the fifteen dog. You can tell by the license plate, I mean off camera. We got a guy laughing. You're running the fresh junket, right, what's up, chuck? It's all the same controls everything pretty much, right. Yeah, if the
user if the user interface works, why changes, right. I was wondering if if you just drop the D star out of it, but apparently it's it has D star as well. Yeah, it's got the D start And if you wanted one that did not have star, I would point you to the T T ten. Yeah, we've done We've done videos on that one already. So the size difference between the fifteen the fifteen two is largely the screen. Why drunk down, it's just going too monochrome. You got a
little smaller platform. Smaller platform. You take a look here, your lines line up, so the speakers on the same size, the buttons are the same size, So your screen height, ye know, GPS and ten in the same place looks like the same style knob. So if my ID fifty knob comes up and missing, um, that's grape vine Texas. Right grape Vine, Texas, just right, just right north of you. Very good,
thanks, great. What charging options? Well, one of the things that I like about it is the USBC does have there you go, that's what everybody's gonna be asking. That's gonna be the same, all right, okay, all right, you don't have a release for that. It does have USBC charge, so right, thank you, right, perfect, Thanks a lot. Ray
