AnyTone AT-778UVII

The AT-778UVII is a safe, well-reviewed pick for straightforward analog mobile work, but confirm you're comfortable with AnyTone's own programming software before buying, since CHIRP is off the table here in a way it isn't on the original AT-778UV.

Decision helper

Is this mobile radio right for you?

Yes, if you're…

  • Buyers who want the AT-778UV's simplicity with a larger track record of reviews
  • Second or fleet vehicle installs where cost and simplicity matter most
  • First-time mobile buyers who don't need digital modes

Skip it, if you're…

  • Anyone who relies on CHIRP for programming
  • Operators who want DMR or other digital voice modes

Tradeoffs

The good and the bad

What we like

  • Same reliable 25/15/5W dual-band performance as the AT-778UV, at a slightly lower price
  • Far larger review base than the original (831 ratings at 4.5 stars)
  • 180-degree rotatable display for flexible dash or overhead mounting
  • Simple, beginner-friendly menu with no digital-mode complexity to wade through

What we don't

  • AnyTone's own listing states CHIRP is not supported; programming needs AnyTone's software
  • 200-channel memory is limiting for operators with large scan lists
  • Analog only, no DMR, D-STAR or Fusion

Overview

The AT-778UVII is AnyTone's refreshed take on its AT-778UV mobile, sharing the same selectable 25/15/5W output on 2m and 70cm and the same 200-channel memory. It carries a 180-degree rotatable display and a built-in cooling fan, and at $119 it undercuts the original AT-778UV by a few dollars while pulling in far more reviews: 4.5 stars across 831 ratings versus the AT-778UV's 49.

Programming is where buyers should slow down. AnyTone's own listing for the AT-778UVII states CHIRP is not supported, a change from the AT-778UV; you will need AnyTone's free programming software instead. Beyond that it is the same straightforward analog rig: no DMR, D-STAR or Fusion, just clean FM on two bands with a menu a first-time buyer can learn quickly. If CHIRP matters, the original AT-778UV or the QYT KT-8900D are the safer pick.
