I've been reading about the Soylent products and saw that they are coming out with a coffee version.

WLN KD-C1: 440 Plus a 220 Mod?
I thought I had posted about the WLN KD-C1, but I can't find it anywhere. Maybe I ignored it, because it is a simple 16-channel UHF (400-470 MHz). It's cheap at $19 bucks. (And you could get one in orange and white.)
And for those that like to live dangerously, you can try VE3PZR's software mod to add 220 MHz:
And for those that like to live dangerously, you can try VE3PZR's software mod to add 220 MHz:
"I suspect it puts out spurs in the 440 MHz band."
"A simple test on 223.580 with a friend with a real 220 MHz radio proved that the radio transmits some power. He was able to hear me but I was not able to hear him. He was about 8KMs away."Interesting, but TX without RX strikes me as not very useful. I'd rather have the RX only if I got to pick.

Nate sent me a link to www.409shop-two-way-radio.com. Not sure if they are testing a new look or if this is really anything, but we all know their current page isn't the prettiest e-commerce site.

Walther P22: Sentinel Captured Spring Guide Rod
I agree with Oleg - reassembly of the P22 requires a fair amount of gymnastics. Twenty bucks for this captured spring guide rod from TANDEMKROSS sounds like a bargain.

Gun Emojis
Apple trades a pistol emoji for a water gun. Microsoft trades a toy gun emoji for a more realistic pistol.
So what you see will vary by platform. That doesn't sound like a good idea.
