I had looked around and found that starter kit is a great value for the price. In the future I will shop here first before I purchase elsewhere.
Great starter package. All you need to get on he DMR bands. review by richie N2WJL on 12/6/2016

great deal, fully packaged ready to go. Be prepared to ask for help in programming as with all DMR radios it isn't easy. Staff at store on line was tremendous help, as are other experienced hams it took a while but I'm up and running. Buy the extra Battery with the starter kit. The radio is hefty and seems to be durable.
Definitely would purchase again review by Keith on 10/3/2016

After a bad experience with an online auction service, and not wanting to give up on digital ham radio, I took the advice of a friend and purchased the DMR starter package from buytworadios.com. The package contained several very usable accessories that compliment the TYT MD 380 radio. The radio speaks for itself. It is a, solid, rugged unit that I have used as both an HT and a mobile radio… very versatile… small but powerful.

I am really excited about my DMR start up kit, It had everything I needed to get into DMR and the price was right.
Mostly good and useful items review by Mike on 6/30/2016

Rating

Great radio. Prefer to use ground plane mag mount than window mount, though window mount would be useful for a temporary rental vehicle, Holster way too tight - unable to use dials as easily as they should be used, and unable to change antennas without unsnapping the top of holster.Would return the holster if it weren't for the 15% restocking fee.
I have bought and will buy again.. review by K4MJO on 4/6/2016

MD380U DMR Starter Kit review by DMR Newbee on 10/16/2015

Rating

The MD380U MDR starter kit enables you to use the MD380U as a no battery Mobil with external antenna as well as an HT. I even use mine as a base with my dual Band Base Antenna. Unit has very clear non mechanical audio on DMR and functions well as an analog HT. Just find some local DMR friends or go to yahoo groups for a good code plug for your area and talk away. Software is easy to use.
The best way to go. review by NA on 10/13/2015
