There seems to be a few different radio a sharing the same name now....

I'm tempted to take a plunge on this one, a hidaway style. Available in either v or u.
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322480963797

Anyone played with one yet? Info seems scant on the net

73's

Not my cup of tea but i can see the 446 folk finding a use for it.

Looks like it's based on the Anytone AT-778

Quite a bit on the web if you search for the above model.

That looks a lot of money for a UV-3R board with a 25w chip in it, the size of two fag packets and more menus than Wetherspoons, I'd give it a swerve unless it was pitched around £25.

Sorry.....first one I found the description was 558, but yes it's a 778 on the case, Chinese seller must have been cut and pasting.
