This is exactly where my thoughts are too. I've been considering the 7300 for a while, but it is a major investment and I'm far from wealthy, so I've been holding off.
A local supplier has confirmed sell pricing of only slightly higher than the original. You can safely ignore the crazy placeholder pricing some EU websites posted (who didn't have radios to sell at the time).Yeah hopeful they don't get ridiculous with the price because that may put many past the threshold. If it gets too dumb just maybe it's time to start looking at the ic-7300 instead.
With the new Rangers you have to damn near take out a mortgage
Backlight dimming has 5 levels.
FM Dev is 2K/4K and the heat sink is exactly the same as the 6666 and yeah, it does 104 PEP.
And a bottle of vodka to deal with RX noise and drift.Yeah hopeful they don't get ridiculous with the price because that may put many past the threshold. If it gets too dumb just maybe it's time to start looking at the ic-7300 instead.

The 6666 Pro is going to displace the 6666 that is now in my vehicle, cuz it's mobetta!
I am thinking about some maglev fans for the heatsink myself.
Yes they are. I didn't intend to conflate them.... If I get a 7300 it would be to replace my ancient Kenwood TS140S that's one of my base radios. The new 6666 will be for my mobile....
I don't know what they will cost, but everything I see that is branded Anytone or Radioddity, is as competitive as it gets. The pricing is like free to me, when comparing what I had to pay for radios in the 70's. It's insane what you get for the buck these days.
The later 6666 is 1x1x2 IRF520's. I don't know what they are using now, but I have a guess.
