you miss read it.
There are several different versions of the px777.
so far, i have found the  px777 VHF 136-174MHZ model, the px777 UHF
400-470MHZ model and the Px777 UHF 465-520MHZ models.
Most commercial radio manufacturers make radios with the same model numbers
and usually letters after the model number to indicate their band split.
One model may have 2 or 3 different versions for different segments of the
commercial VHF or UHF band.  It looks like puxing or quansheng radio has
done this as well.
It is interesting how they are advertized as professional radios, yet they
have the reverse monitor function that only amateur rigs have.
Not to mention high and low power switching.  Obviously they are being
advertized as commercial radios, but intended for the amateur audience.
Quansheng radio also makes 10 other handheld radios  and a mobile radio of
some sort.
I would like to know more about the mobile and if it is VHF or UHF.
