Wouxun KG-UV920R: eBay
The auction ended with a winning bid of $306. Not much of a deal since Ed sold his 10 for $325 (including a free KG-UV2D HT). I can only assume that scarcity is keeping the price high at this point.

Wouxun KG-UV920R: Reselling on eBay
Someone is selling their unused (new except for opening the box) KG-UV920R. There are four bids at the moment with the current bid of $102.50 - reserve not met. It will be interesting to see where this goes.

Deal Alert: Antenna for $3.71
From Hans (PD0AC):
"This seems totally wrong: a replacement antenna (SMA Female) for the Wouxun, Quansheng or UV-5R for a price that won’t buy you a decent burger."He's not had it in his hand, but thinks it is worth the risk.

Opposite or Opportunity

Baofeng UV-3R: Battery & AA Battery Case 2
Today, I got the AA battery case that is based on the Yaesu FBA-37 and should fit the Baofeng UV-3R. I already had a Yaesu case, so I am comparing it to the cheap eBay version. I hate to give away the surprise, but you get what you pay for... The $21 FBA-37 is clearly better made than the $10 eBay version.
The eBay case (right) had a film all over it. It wiped off easily, but it looked like it came from a dirty plant.
The Yaesu (left) is much better engineered. On the eBay case (right), the metal strips that run between the contacts are just roughly covered with some plastic tape.
Here is the eBay case on my VX-3R. It is hard to tell in the photo, but there is a gap along the side where it does not fit well. I think the batteries do not sit flush against the base of the case and this keeps it from close snugly.
As usual, once I get the actual Baofeng UV-3R, I will update when I try this case on it.
