I'm doing online support</div><div>for an American importer. I have two radios</div><div>that so far I haven't been asked to pay for. </div><div>The first radio #19 off the production line </div><div>has quite a few bugs but most of them are</div><div>left side of radio band vs right side band.</div><div>I own the Yahoo news group for the radio.</div><div>We are 500+ members strong now that the </div><div>radios are being imported and sold. I would</div><div>need to ask the importer but I might be able</div><div>to give up the early production radio and the</div><div>USB-Serial cable to a developer as long as</div><div>I had some kind of guarantee that it would </div><div>be returned. I really abhor Anytone's joke</div><div>software. It lacks many features that can be</div><div>manually programmed into the radio. And It</div><div>crashes if you modify a file then try to upload</div><div>it to the radio. You have to first save that file</div><div>then open the saved file before you can write. </div><div>So yes if the importer says I can loan the radio</div><div>and I get something legal in writing saying it</div><div>will be returned upon request I can help in this way. </div><div><br></div><div>Let me know what you think. Also, I don't know your</div><div>position in the development team. Are you just a user</div><div>or do you actually develop builds that include new </div><div>radios? Is there another maybe higher up in the hierarchy</div><div>of developers I should be in contact with? You can email</div><div>me off list with detailed information if you have it.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks, Phil. </div><div><br></div><br><div>
