New Anytone 6666+

$712 Canadian. Ouch ! That's a good bit more than the $230 Canadian I payed for my 6666. Not sure I'll be upgrading at that price LOL.... That's a mighty big increase in price for a radio that's only a wee bit more powerful.

I shudder to think how much the Washington is going to be, if it does indeed share a board with the 6666 pro.

I wouldn't pay any attention to the online pricing yet. The radio is still not released and the people "selling" don't actually have them to sell.

There are significant differences in size, layout, IO/UI, and feature set. But both share some of the latest circuit designs at their core. You will see that across various new radios from different brands, and that's a good thing.

The old line of "it's just an X in a Y box" is simply not the case, despite the many incorrect assumptions you might see online.

It's a great time for 12m/11m/10m (and even 15m) rigs right now. There is a lot of great stuff happening.

Just bought an Ares2 on Alibaba, talked to Anytone and they mentioned another new radio. The 6666+ with additional features and 85w output. I will see if he can send me some documentation for it. He said it might be available in June.

Oops. This was supposed to be confidential. Pictures removed.

I bought one a while ago and have been testing it out in the shack. The stock mic has a big hollow sound so it's time to do something about it.

Yeah the new mic has definitely a better form factor but where it gained there it lost in the sound. The previous one sounded much better aside from the pffff. I've just stuck with the stryker sr-75nc and have gotten several unsolicited compliments on the audio. I'll check out that thread you shared.
