Our take on the TIDRADIO H9 10W Bluetooth APRS GPS Dual Band VHF/UHF Ham GMRS Radio

The TIDRADIO H9 is a dual-band handheld radio covering VHF and UHF for ham and GMRS use, plus AM aviation receive, FM broadcast and NOAA weather channels. Its standout features are Bluetooth 5.1 for wireless programming and wireless PTT/mic use, built-in GPS for APRS position reporting, and a true-color TFT display. It suits licensed ham and GMRS operators who want one flexible handheld with app-based setup instead of cable-and-software programming. Against simpler analog handhelds it adds GPS, Bluetooth and a color screen; against higher-end APRS radios it is a budget-minded option, and owners report mixed results on build and software polish.

Questions and answers

Do I need a license to use the TIDRADIO H9?
Yes. Transmitting on ham bands requires an amateur license, and GMRS use requires an FCC GMRS license. You can listen without one.
Can I program it from my phone?
Yes. It supports Bluetooth 5.1 programming through the TIDRADIO app, and USB-C programming from a computer. Some owners find the app connection inconsistent.
Does it really do APRS?
It has built-in GPS and supports APRS position reporting. You still need to configure your callsign and APRS settings correctly in the software.
What can it receive besides ham and GMRS?
It receives VHF and UHF, AM aviation frequencies, FM broadcast (87–108 MHz) and NOAA weather channels.
How long does the battery last?
The 2500 mAh battery typically lasts a full day of light use. Running 10 W high power shortens that considerably.
Can I use a Bluetooth headset with it?
Yes. It supports Bluetooth wireless PTT and microphone use, and can act as a speaker for a connected phone.
