Home  /  Comparison tool  /  Alinco DJ-MD5XEG vs AnyTone AT-D878UVII Plus

Alinco DJ-MD5XEG or AnyTone AT-D878UVII Plus? I put both radios side by side: specs from the manufacturers’ datasheets and photos at the same scale. The Alinco DJ-MD5XEG comes out better for weight; the AnyTone AT-D878UVII Plus for maximum power, battery and water resistance. Both radios support DMR, so they can talk to each other digitally as well.
