It comes with a screen protector already on the radio.
Isn't that the one used for shipping purposes or is it a permanent one? I know the shipping film protector film is pretty lame on the 980.

We don't have WX in Europe and its not targeted at the USA so why would they put in WX? What would be the point in wasting money putting in something which is of absolutely no use at all in any way, shape or form where you're going to sell it?
And how would you "walk in and buy one" when it isn't legal to sell them in the USA?
I've heard of some stupid complaints but this takes the biscuit.
ok first up
as i said yes i realize its for the euro market.
but........
theres plenty of people on just this forum alone mainly in usa that want one so i would say thats a fair sized market ,,to sell it,, usa v uk is a no brainer
the uk cb ,,scene,, is a very sad and tiny one and has been for decades
NO its aimed at the sad tiny uk cb crowd who mostly like the sound of there own voice
finally to piss on your bonfire you pretentious sad ecky thump TWAT
i live in UK and USA!
I'm a little disappointed in th WX feature in the 980 so if it didn't have it it wouldn't bother me any. I have a ton of scanners I can throw in the car.
Irrelevant. The EU has twice the population of the USA, even moreso if you include European countries like Russia where this will do very well.
But its not just sold in the UK.
Its aimed at the EUROPEAN crowd who are far more in number than the USA.
At least we now know where the village idiot disappears to from time to time. Somebody who buys Alinco really has no clue at all.
Yep, mine is really deaf.
sorry i think your wrong on most of those comments its obvious there are way more truck drivers in u.s using radios than uk or europe and thats just the truck drivers were not talking population were talking am cb use
how many radio stores are left in uk?
compared to here and i guess your wrong about the points you wont address. great save your breath for dx night!
SSB on 11m was wall to wall in Europe today. Loads of Russian taxis coming in on the top end of the band as well.cept is dead 27/81 is near dead its a shame but thats the facts and i miss it but enjoy the old aunty mary here which is easily on par with pre 81 uk days
and as for radio brand snobbery give me a break thats scraping the school yard barrel
bottom line please watch your mouth when you dont even know the facts
980 has wx and no wideband and this ,,new,, grant2 has wideband but no wx!
ok its a euro market radio but come on president!
yeticom site suggests made in france not china
