Thanks, Dave, for your feedback. The Tonfa UV-985 seems to be a new radio on
the market; at least, it is new to me. It has a little more power than the
other Chinese dual banders and about the same features, but it is not at all
clear how much it talks. I have also written to Kight Radio, but they have
not responded back yet. If I find anything out, I'll share it with all of
you, and you all do the same.

Ron,

I did a google search and figured I'd post the link.  I didn't know that you
have already checked it out.  I am just attempting to help expand the
collective information of the group.  It is always good to hear about a new
radio coming down the pike.

I'll wager that it is made by the same folks who gave us the Wouxun,
Baofeng, and Tyt equipment.  

I must say I have the Wouxun and It definitely is a good value for money as
well as a fine performer.
