Hope everything you purchase works as expected. The Qixiang, as an OEM manufacturer has a track record of being very consistent and the Anytone brand has been great values for radios that can be setup properly by the end user, no radio shop hands required to get operating on the air. All of my friend that commented are making his comments based on his own experiences from purchases. All have offered me help in that past and their help is accurate and welcome. Myself, I am still running an SSB export radio as a base radio. My next purchase by a Radioddity QT40, or QT60.
