Home  /  Comparison  /  Kenwood TH-D74E vs Kenwood TH-D75E

Kenwood TH-D74E or Kenwood TH-D75E? I put both radios side by side: data from the manufacturers’ spec sheets and photos at the same scale. Kenwood TH-D75E: battery and weight. Both radios support D-STAR, so they’ll talk to each other digitally as well.
