Too expensive. I've been generally pleased with the Chinese radios but a large part of that is because of their low cost. When they start getting close in cost to the "name brand" rigs I don't think I'd choose them.
ReplyDeleteMaybe eventually the Chinese mobiles will start coming down in price.
For $300 I can buy a Yaesu FT-7900r. I know this is competing with the FT-8800r, but I would rather buy a FT-7900r if I can afford $350 instead of buying a SMP. I might buy it if it were $250.
