answering your comments in order you posted k? I numbered your for easy refernence. 1: It affected me when I used to use CB. I learned. I gave it up (mostly) If you do not like what you hear. You turn it off, or go away. It currently does not bother me. 2: No 3:Yes. "criminals"...

not my business to locate illegals. Also pointless.

I meant like discussing illegal CB amps.. using non type-accepted gear, and the like. All in all... radio is radio.... I do not wanna seem like one of those "Elitists" I put my pants on the same as anyone else. 73 John

OH.. No problem with CB or CBers in the legal sense... just those who deliberately violate the FCC regulations. Heck.. *I* got started in CB :)

Just as long as the CBer follow the FCC regilations on that service.. they are fine with me :) I've known some of the best folks ever on 11m.. Just the "illegals" are the ones who mess it up.

This is probably a rhetorical question... Looks like a good site.. except that the "Illegal Good Buddy" stuff going on here.... Should I be sorry I joined here?

The firmware cannot be "flashed" it is a "write once" chip. I had one where my display contrast went to nothing... you can see the display.. if you look at it at the right angle, under right light conditions. I bought another. Mine does what your does sometimes.. but if I turn it off, then...

Hey Paul.. didn't know you had one :) Well... anymore, who doesn't. Hopefully you got your issue squared away. I had a little trouble using Win7.. but when I got it ironed out, it works great. The latest drivers are a must.. especially if using Vista or Win7 73 John

That kind of made me go "hmmm" too. I just let it do its thing... About 9 months.. all radios and batteries going strong :)

Set "Channel Display Way" the way you want it... AND set the "Step Frequency" to that appropriat frequency steps.. say 5 khz, otherwise when you upload a frequency into memory, you may get an "out of range error"

They are not type-accepted for use on FRS/GMRS/MURS

YES! I've worked AO27 and AO51 with mine several times... great radios!!

I have two... each have 2 meters, one has 440, and the other 220, as they are dual band. They work great. 2 friends have one. No complaints.... They are FCC approved, unlike most other Chines radios, hence the influx of folks who own them. 73 John KD8DVR
