They seem to be quite expensive for what they are running old Android OS and my concern is that once the OS becomes to outdated to run Zello then the radio radio becomes useless, I'm looking for something future proof so I was thinking about using a generic smartphone with some kinda bluetooth PTT mic/speaker to give me at least some sort of a feel of a radio unless there is another type of network radio...

I spoke with Tech Support at... Read more View article »

Both are in very nice condition aside from a couple of scratches on the display. The seller said he had his radios in a plastic bag in a drawer for years.

I tried cleaning the radios with alcohol but this didn’t seem to make a... Read more View article »
