Re: 23cm models
Hi Don, Alinco had the DJ-G7T triband HT which did 23cm. IT looks like it has been discontinued, unfortunately, but I am sure there are plenty out there still. Icom had the T81A (had a few in the

Re: 23cm models
I'd go $300 if they ruggedized it and covered all of those bands. They can leave out DMR as far as I am concerned. I have a 144-440 Anytone DMR and only use it to talk with my brother across the

Re: 23cm models
What ARE the current offerings for 1.2 GHz besides an Icom 9700? By offerings, I am referring to HTs (portable, hand-helds), not desktop radios like my 9700. I'm not going to carry my 9700 around with

23cm models
Since Baofeng is now making triband HTs ridiculously cheap, giving everyone a shot s 222mhz, anyone think there is a chance that they might soon come out with a model that covers 1.2GHZ?? That would

Re: BaoFeng T26 programming
If they don't list the radio, they don't officially support it, but you can try on their website for more information. They might also have an alpha or beta version you can try. We're just a peer to

Re: BaoFeng T26 programming
Hi Donald, I tried CHIRP.? CHIRP doesn't list the T26, so I tried the BF888, T20, and T20FRS settings to download what's in the radio now.? Which radio in the CHIRP list resembles the T26 regarding

Re: screws
A well-stocked hardware store might have them. Take the clip and radio with you. You don't want screws that are longer than the holes drilled for them. They'll be metric, most likely. Take note of
