Does anyone have experience with this brand? I realize they're not Motorola quality, but I don't need that. I'm doing some consulting for someone who would like commercial grade (but not military) radios that get used for about 8 hours, 5-6 times a year. The TC-500 and TC-320 seem to fit the budget but I actually haven't laid hands on them, nor do I know anyone who does.
So if you have, answer a couple questions:
Programming- is it just a matter of buying the $40 cd and the $20 cable and programming them?
Durability- Again, not looking for super durable Batwing-grade radios, I just want them to be able to sustain a short fall onto soft grass from someone's belt and keep on ticking.
If the Baofeng 888S were FCC approved, I'd use it, but alas it's not. So I can't recommend it.
