Chinese made, and you need a small amount of knowhow to initially put in the uhf cb frequencies.
But at $200 for a pair of 5w handheld, good value for money.
these ones are $60 each shipped http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2013-New-...item3cca777032
Looks like you will have set the frequency every time you want to change channels ? Unless I missed something lol
sorry should have been more clear.. u just assign channel names to frequencies u wanna Tx/Rx. I set mine up with the usual 80 channels of UHF CB. Then you just change channels as usual. The particular model I got allows me to listen to two channels simultaniously.Quote:

Nice find!
Yeeeeeeey my handheld finally came, all good now.
Never argue with an idiot, cos he'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience. Y2K
I'll tell you for sure soon.Quote:

You can download the software to program them, just remember to order a programming cable as programming via the front panel is painful.
I will mention, these radios are not covered by the CB class licence. This could cause you some problems down the track so buyer beware.
I have a couple of the wouxons for use on the amateur 2m and 70cm bands which is legal if you have an appropriate licence.
