Any updates on the apocryphal Wouxun mobile? ...

[cmeisenzahl]

I've seen several posts/threads about the upcoming Wouxun KG-UV920R mobile radio.

I'm getting ready to buy my first mobile radio and am very interested in checking out the Wouxun. The reviews for the handheld seem largely positive.

So what's the word, will we see the mobile KG-UV920R anytime soon?

Thanks and have a great day,

Chris

I have heard several reports. I have seen pictures even. But they are NOT very close and they are not of the radio actually powered up.

What my understanding is, they are having some development problems and a unit has not even been submitted to the FCC for approval.

I am also hearing reports that the price is not very competitive with similar radios like the Ft-8800.

Now, all that I am hearing is just rumor, but it is from folks who are in the info loop a little bit. I personally think the radio is vaporwear at this point, and it won't be available for some time (if ever).

Ed (from your Wouxun link above) confirmed that they would not be available for Dayton, but that he would have another surprise at the hamfest.

Ed Greany, another re-seller, is much more pessimistic:

"Personally, I'm REALLY tired of hearing about it. It's been over 6 months since it was leaked and there is absolutely NO word from China as to 1) IF it exists, 2) WHEN it will be released, 3) IF it will be Certified or 4) WHAT the price might be."
