So as the radio comes about there is more news, this time via email a sort of press release with some more meat to add onto the bones of what we know at the moment.

2.PA、AM、FM、USB、LSB mode
3. Frequency Tuning Step can be 10HZ, 100HZ, 100Khz,1MHz
4. ± 1.5KHz Clarifier
5. Menu function and PC programming software
6. ECHO Function

Add to this there is also power settings of 1-12w AM/CW and 1-40w FM and 0-30w SSB. On the grand scheme of things a lot like the 6666 and the Lincoln II. There is indeed NO WOW FACTOR that some had promised and even hinted at. Multi colour displays do not cut it anymore, PC Programmability is so last years. Now we must wait and see what actually comes and what actually is simply hype
