Atcually, it was the TH-22AT that was discontinued about a year or 2 ago, the THK2AT just came out with in the last year and a half if that, it came out a few months after the TM-271A mobile. It's a very good little HT, I ran it hard the last couple days and it works great, very accessible. I might get another one for the price and keep one in my go kit.
