Still waiting for the other shoe to drop
This radio was like $50. I just wanted something cheap for 220 FM. I never thought this radio would replace my trusty Icom TH7 as the radio that goes on every road trip. Can't say anything about CHIRP programming as I bought the RT programmer. Performance no better or worse than the Icom as far as I can tell. Being able to see both the frequency and alpha name of each station is great. This radio feels solid and "just works." I would have felt I got a fair deal if I'd paid four times as much.
