Hello,

There's a fair amount on the new 909X receiver on the web, but I also
read, somewhere, that there is also going to be a 909 XR at the same
time released.

What's the -XR all about ?

Any Links to it ?

Thanks,
Bob


Here's a picture of both and "some" info (translation from Russian or
Chinese):

After looking at all these web sites, I think the 909X pictures are
just drawings of what they expected the radio to look like. And the
909XR is the picture of an actual pre-production unit with the above
listed improvements over a 909. I doubt that there are two designs
going into production, but I could be wrong.
