With the start of a new cycle upon us, hopefully the radio companies will come out with something useful. Stryker might have a new radio on the way?

How about the Midland M-88? It is DIN sized and fits completely inside the DIN sleeve. Don't know if it will hit the American market though.

The McKinley is DIN sized. Forgot that yesterday until I went to install one in a rack had been holding my 980. Will need spacers & bolts to adapt.
See JJDs pics where he has it in dash under same-size car stereo.

I received the Walcott Radio Bag. I’ll get some pics once back on the road. It’s “better” than I remembered from examining it at their store. Won’t need much fabrication added for it to do what I’ve envisioned.
Cobra 29 size. A McKinley just disappears into it (a good thing for customization).

I was trying to show that it is only about 2 inches deep, it might be a good alternative to the Cobra 29 remote face conversion. How good it sounds remains to be seen though. The suction cup mount might be good too. Or put it in your coat pocket with a battery in the other pocket and an antenna on your hat!

Interesting how ithe power button looks like an Emergency button. I wonder if this is based off a euro public safety radio mold. Or maybe they are just copying the look.

“Problem” because I don’t think it will sold here.
Here’s hoping PRESIDENT has in mind what you favor, above.

Swap FM for SSB and I'd consider buying! That being said, the Anytone 6666 has been bulletproof the last 3 years.
Well if you want to get someone a basic AM rig for Xmas here ya go

I don't know anything about the 5001z but Northerntool is has been around a long time.
For 8bux out the door might be worth a roll of the dice?
