Icon7 Don't want a cb radio in your tuck!

Hello i found a new little radio for under 50$ with shipping!
I progamed MURS and FRS/GMRS and some local ham
radio and fire in it. Best of all it has a full 2watt output
and will outperform all the junk FRS/GMRS you see
in the big box stores.Hope you like this.

It looks like a nice radio but I (prefer to) buy my electronics from American companies. But to each their own really.

It looks great, but the website looks cheesy. I wouldn't consider ordering anything from there.

Well the products are real cheap but theyre good for just to have. I bought mine for the fire department and realized that it wasnt iterior worthy so i go rid of it and bought a mobile for my truck

Yes the site looks a little off but it's ok
As far as the remarks about buy (my electronics from American companies)
Plaese what are you talking about i only know of one US radio and they are so
over priced its stupit and the radios are not made here? You know the one with a
big M ! And what about the likes of Kenwood, Icom and Yaesu. Who have made
most of the US Amateur Radios for the past 40+ years. All i am doing
is showing a low priced radio that fit in and not cost an arm and leg.
A sample look at a Yarsu VX8R its list is over $500 ok.

Down spot, down.

All we are saying is that the SITE looks questionable, therefore WE wouldn't buy from them. Did you know that the internet is FULL of scammers and fake websites used to fish for your credit card information?
