This little radio is very common now and the feedback I got are very good.

Beofeng got into a little of troubles in NA for the way they advertise this
radio. As many chinese radios, they can transmit out of band and with powers
above limits allowed in these bands for that class.

I guess it's up to the operator to make the right choice but these being
available to just about anyone, it can create some issues.

I remember the time you had to fax your license to order the radios :)

Cheers!
