<font size="-1">Yup and here is a good page from K6BEZ showing
pictures of the trash some of these radios have been putting out
since Dec 2015. I'm curious if any of the current radios have
improved here but I doubt it.<br>

For a triband radio, the Kenwood TH-F6A is still an amazing little
radio. I haven't experienced the physical fragility issues as
reported in this thread but I do know if you plug in a power cable
into it's charger port "hot", they are reknown to blow their
Li-Ion charger circuit. Not good. It's replacement is the D74
which is way more expensive, way more complicated, way more
bigger/heavier, etc. Nice radio though.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">And Wouxun has a pretty clean transmitter
too. I have the 144/440 and the 144/220. You get what you
pay for. Unfortunately, the folks with the noisy transmitters
don’t know it….. only their neighbors get the negative benefit
of the cheap radios. A spectrum Analyzer shows the real
story. I wish more folks would look at that.<o:p></o:p></p>
