Thats the problem. They may be clones of well known radios but not type
approved as yet. Lot of hoops to jump through to import in bulk.


If you are talking about use on CB, then it seems a little strange to worry
about type approved sets running at more than 5W! I mean, if they run at
more than 5W it makes little difference if they are type approved or not!!!

Not many handhelds do more than 5Watts at UHF freqs

If they do then don't expect the battery to last too long if your TX!

I humbly hang my head in shame and blame my newsreader that did not make me
