Radioddity Anyone tried the Radioddity DB50 yet?

I'm told that it's a rebranded Anytone, but I'm not sure which one. There are no reviews in Amazon yet for Radioddity DB50. I was hoping AntennaFarm would offer it, but they don't. The removable front panel would work well in my pickup.

Anyone have any review to share? Here is the rig: Radioddity DB50

I can say now after having and using the Radioddity DB-50 that it's been a workhorse for me in my vehicle.
As a certified storm-spotter out during storms and need to make sure that i have a dependable way to communicate with others either while out spotting or being able to talk to a NOAA command center with information concerning the weather around me.
This radio is easy to program on my laptop by entering all my frequency information then just taking my laptop out to my radio in my vehicle and upload all the changes that need to be changed and it's ready to go.
It has 4 different power levels and I haven't had any problems reaching repeaters as far as 20-25 miles from my location. I've had good reports on how I'm sounding and the clarity of my transmissions.
So I'd say anybody looking for a dependable mobile radio this would be a great choice. I'm thinking of buying another one to go in my other vehicle.
Hope this helps anyone looking to buy the Radioddity DB-50 that has 50 watts of power when you need it most.

Read my earlier post on the DB-50. It's a great radio. I'll post pictures in the next couple days on it inside my Blazer.

Not sure how I've missed this thread three times.

I've been using a DB-50 for a few months now, and find it to be a pretty good rig, especially for the price. For programming, the RT Systems CPS is much better than CHIRP for the DB-50. It's a re-branded Anytone, but it has some added functionality that doesn't play well with CHIRP.

I use mine primarily as a receiver; it beats the daylight out of any of my scanners for sensitivity. I listen to a lot of analog on the scanners and tune the DB-50 to monitor as needed. It also gets tuned through the NOAA stations multiple times daily checking propagation.

An added benefit is being able to inhibit transmit for the entire radio, and not only on a per channel basis. Keeps curious fingers legal and my scanners un-deafened.

It's definitely on the repeat purchase list.
