Yes, I was a bit surprised about the price. I saw that they exhibited at CeBit - the EU usually have tighter standards than over here, so I would assume they meet them if they are going to spend all that money on exhibiting.
Actually my first reaction to the price was to worry about the ethics of Child Labour! I think my biggest problem is that they are to be used with a Motorola GR1225 repeater that is set up for DPL and I don't see that on their web site! thanks, 73 ve3id --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "George Henry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > According to Kirisun's website, they are apparently PC-programmable with the > appropriate software and cable, but I'd be very leery of those radios... a > $60.00, 16-channel 3.5 watt UHF HT from China may not be type-accepted, > certificated, or whatever the approval process is in VE land.
