That's what I've been hearing as well. It's only got a single MOSFET though, so it probably won't be a juiced-up powerhouse. Bells CB gave it a tune-up before shipping it out so hopefully the modulation will at least be respectable. We shall see...
Bells CB does respectable work (I bought my last two radios from him). Also -- something I didn't realize until recently -- he puts tune-up reports for all of his customers on YouTube. Eventually you'll see yours there. op:
