Where are you guys getting your info?? The Flamethrower radio is NOT built by JR radio or screwdriver or (Skrewdriver) or sold by them. I own one, and it is built by sold Flamethrower only. I actually like the radio very much. Cost too much?? WTF? It is was between $25.-$ 37 LESS then what it would cost to have the local shop here after taxes and the ones I contaced on the internet to do the SAME MODS and upgrades listed on their add. The radio is a great way to go if you do not want to, or can't do the mods upgrades and Peak and Tweak alignment yourself.
I get great signal reports with it too. Audio is loud and powerfull. If you look there are a boatload of reviews on the internet about the Flamethrower radio. Most of them are VERY good. I think you guys are a bit too quick on the badmouth trigger, at least try one before you knock it. I shot skip with mine all the time, and NEVER had a BAD signal report on the audio or signal strength, dont know who you been talking to, but my FlameThrower rocks!
