hello guys,

I was poking around to see if there was any portable solutions for HF that didn't cost a mint. Here is the link to an article that is a review for a chinese made HF Handy talkie:

I would say, for $300 fully assembled (its also available as a kit for cheaper), it is certainly more affordable than other "portable" solutions. It can also be computer controlled with HRD (using the same command set as the Icomm IC-718 (also supported in Hamlob under linux).
