[N1SQB]

Hello All!
I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the new Alinco tri-band portable.

So far, I like what I see. Dual receive, dual separate knobs for audio and squelch, wideband receive, drop-in charger included,PL/DPL, I dont know, there may be a new toy in the shack soon! I figured that even though it is technicaly a transceiver, it would make a heck of a true dual band receiver on the action bands....

Moved to the Amateur Equipment forum. Please use it for its intended purposes.

Sorry Wayne!
Even though it is technicaly Ham radio equipment, I was addressing it from the "receiver" side of things and thought it belonged there.

My thoughts exactly, think it would make an awesome receiver. Anybody have one yet let us know. It might be a new addition at my home.
