Something to keep in mind, is that the GP68 [and their chinese clones] are not legal to use on anything other than ham in the US. And, because it's also illegal to import them, they may be seized by Customs, with no recourse. WalterH --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, Scott Yeager

Here's a question I've not been sure about: If a radio isn't Part 15 registered, is it even legal for ham use? If we build our own or heavily modify, that's one thing, but I think if it's a commercial product, it still has to meet FCC Part 15 doesn't it? On Aug 8, 2009, at 1:18 AM, ka1jfy
