Got my X108 G outdoor.worst piece of crap I ever wasted money on. The mic is terrible,so muffled nobody can understand me, speaker is crap.The chinglish manual was written by an idiot. Is this the radio that everyone on here praise's??? Wow!! When I got it there was zero receive,I opened it up and there wasn't even a wire to the SO 239,nothing,nada. So I robbed one from another parts radio I had and soldered it in.I got on air and a guy who lives less than a mile from me only comes in at 5 S units when normally he pegs my meter.Only one filter lets you even hear anything,when I switch to other filter settings it knocks out all receive. Modulation is so low and muffled nobody can hear or understand me. No RF gain,no way to adjust modulation just terrible design all in all. so here's a real life honest review of this waste of money.My advice,buy a real radio and save your time,money and headaches.

Sounds like the AGC has not been enabled after power on
