Re: leixen vv898 any good
They're a lottery in my opinion. I had one and it was very sensitive. The receive audio sounded terrible though, even with an external speaker. It sounded like a really low bit rate mp3, just really mushy and hard to listen to. I gave the radio to a friend whose VV898 bricked itself for no apparent reason.
