Talk about double standards. They have absolutely no problem at all selling illegal rigs and linears to anyone who walks through the door but they won't ship a radio to the USA because its not legal.
I am so outraged I almost feel like driving there, standing in the store and pointing to all the illegal 11m sidebanders they have, pointing to each one and going in my loudest voice "illegal to sell that, illegal to sell that, illegal to sell that."
...as far as I know, no one has ever been killed by someone walking into a picture theatre, mall or school armed with an illegal 27 meg radio.
Seems ironic when you can purchase this , legally??? .... The New Ammunition That Has Gun Owners Drooling | The Liberty Digest
Somethings aren't right.
You don't need to put a 6" hole in someone to defend yourself.
It's a shame the EU manufacturers don't market CB radios in the US with US specs. There are some really nice rigs out there with remote heads and other nice features only found in US marketed amateur radio gear. Even worse no one makes a nice mono band 10 meter rig. Not talking about export CB's but a current manufacture 10 meter radio. Bums me out.

No I don't because I know the legal requirements for selling electrical and electronic gear no matter what it is.
First thing is meeting CE certification. Second is meeting the regulatory requirements for that equipment, both in additional certification, performance and statutory labelling. So for 11m equipment such as Ham International Multimode II or a NATO 2000 etc it is illegal for them to sell those as they are neither CE marked or certified with the legally required 27/81 markings required for 11m gear at the time they were sold new.
All of those regulations apply regardless of whether you're selling to a CBer or a licensed amateur. The only exceptions are kits, that is why all these freebanding radios such as Anytone 5555s are advertised and sold as amateur radio gear. If they truly weren't doing anything dodgy then why do they take great care to make sure they're advertised as amateur radio sets?
Can't purchase that in my country thankfully. It kind of puts an end to the whole "self defence" argument a lot of gun owners use though. You don't need to put a 6" hole in someone to defend yourself.
Have you've had a chance yet to check up on the radio's state of tune/modulation?
I think we in the states are used to buying radios that need to be tweaked in order to operate at peak effeciently.
