didn't they stop making this radio too last year?
or is it still in production...
seems a fairly inexpensive rig and sounds very accessible.
what is the receive audio like? how about transmit audio, is it low like the
f6a or nice and crisp and loud like the icom portibles?

> I've been using the radio for 2 days now and if you can listen for the low
beep for default settings and count clicks in some menus, the radio is very
easy. Very much like the mobile version, the TM271A. Very user friendly
radio. I'm very happy with it.
