one problem with them is sometimes the preprogramed frequencies are likely to be where you aren't allowed to transmit, if people buy them thinking them to be walky talkies that's an issue if they use them as is.

have 2 DM1801's with opengd firmware, really just them them to monitor marine, shopwatch and fireservice with tx disabled and only PMR446 frequencies where tx is enabled.

hope it was a good caravan to be worth the risk of jail.

yeah i know its not legal but also know ofcom has no interest in stopping it as long as you don't interfere with other services, even though its a quality radio i have a Comet CF-30MR connected.

Hi, Hope Lemmy takes off, seen a few centralized reddit clones fail.

viable alternatives are always welcome.
