It had to happen, a strong and robust 6w VHF and 5w UHF hand held for a good price. 136-174 and 400-520MHz with a fixed antenna that seems really to work well. Buttons are robust and not loose or flimsy.Manual is thick, easy to read and understand but I think programming via the software is best action and of course easier.

This radio is 2 years old. There are 3 specs, a,c & d. D is the best spec.
This is finally a D when tick options in software. So they are still old radios? I didnt know as not seen them in EU just USA and heard about CRT4CF
Fixed antenna! Humm…I don’t see this as an advantage. You cannot test/use different antennas if you want to. Besides, transportation can be an issue. That’s my view!
The antenna can be removed. 100% no troubles at all
