While technically a 10 meter radio…has anyone seen or tried one yet? I got emails regarding this new model and I’m wondering how it may compare to the Anytone 5555N-II.
I ordered one sunday sept17 2023 and it still stuck in Hong Kong for a week not happy on this....still have not got it to day Sept 23.....still at the Hong Kong airport......While technically a 10 meter radio…has anyone seen or tried one yet?

I'm a believer. I bought a CB-27 because it was so cute then got the AT-5555n II. I just picked up a Clearspeech DSP Speaker to use on the CB-27 as that "noise" you hear on the bands is really people talking!

My Anytone came with full US warranty and has a local warranty repair shop. Again, why would you buy a relabeled radio and not the original?If one is considering purchasing a QT60 I would recommend checking out this guy..........
Scott's Radios
For some more info on his services this YouTube video provides some good info.......

These Radioddity units, unlike Anytones, DO come with a factory warranty!

I’ve been to HRO Plano and they seem to be hams to the core and probably don’t want to push easy to modify 10m rigs.Not any known changes due to name. Buy 500 and they’ll inscribe it prcguy as brand.
Early word on “the 955 clone” (as it was called 1.5-years ago) was that Stryker warrantied theirs and the AT would be cash & carry (no warranty) as part of $425 radio versus $250 clone.
Advantage of buying at Scott’s is some TLC programming, etc, with conversion. (He was an Anytone “dealer” testing prototypes; many happy customers other forums).
Amazon or 88 Radio or Walcott or Scott’s.
Choose yer poison. I’m referring to it as Q5/QT60 hereon.
RadiOddity — like PowerWerx (or Walcott) — has plenty of nice items catalogued. Not just a one-off seller.
I tried to talk Ham Radio Outlet at Plano into carrying it, but had no favorable chemistry in that exchange. Be nice to see it at DX Engineering, but that catalog is intimidating for a gear jammer.
Our hobby being what it is, the above are worth getting to know. Truckstop CB shops ain’t the thing for high performance. (Balun, choke, toroid, . . some kinda foreign food, huh?)
21st Century finally here, so who’s gonna make the grade?

FWIW: Unless he has changed his mind since I bought my Q5, Scott's stopped selling them. I ordered from Wolcott.
Try Main Trading Company.I tried to talk Ham Radio Outlet at Plano into carrying it, but had no favorable chemistry in that exchange. Be nice to see it at DX Engineering, but that catalog is intimidating for a gear jammer.
