These are Chinese‑made, just like almost everything else these days. I’ve had a few Chinese radios work fine one day and quit the next. Granted, those were cheap ham HTs and not an overpriced export model, but it does happen.

I watched the documentary about ocean gate and Rush. The damn sub was screaming there was a problem and he ignore his own invention.

Honestly, I really hope they addressed the issues the H3 had—especially the lack of a proper voltage regulator. I’ve never been a fan of the H3. I bought two, and one died within a couple of months. The other still works, but I barely use it anymore. I actually prefer the H8 over the H3. Sure...
