ReplyDeleteI've not done a side-by-side yet, but there is this:

That would explain why I got one new in the box for 114 to my door, the vendor was liquidating there stock.
ReplyDeleteHey.. what happened with my comment?
ReplyDeleteNot sure. I see this one and the one on the post about the 9000D at 446Shop. http://www.brickolore.com/2014/05/tyt-th-9000d-at-446shop.html
DeleteYou're right, same radio other thread, sorry.
DeleteBut this radio looks like a AnyTone 588 (I own a 588U version and this radio works fine).
The specs for the 220 MHz model show transmit only in 245 MHz range. Maybe that's a typo. Hopefully, this new model still has the D-sub connectors on the back.
ReplyDeletecan you change what bands it does.. i got one that says u can change the setting to operate either on 220/440/144
