Looks like one of the Qixiang radios and according to Twitter the radio arrived today and is for sale. IP67 water proofing and “fixed” 15cm antenna for the PMR 446MHZ band and of course the 500mw power. Also available as 136-174 and 400-470 and the locked versions for 2m and 70cm. Important thing is it has the 6.25Khz step.

  
At the moment the price is unknown but nice to see when other companies are now heading away from PMR as the prices drop and the margins are smaller than CRT are there bringing something new and different to the EU market. And a little bird tells me there maybe a new 10m SSB radio sometime during 2015 and now that is really a good idea.
