Wouxun KG-UV9p review, worth the price?

by
W Kguv9 Feat

The Wouxun KG-UV9p was my first Wousun, and I thought of it as a high-priced Baofeng, after all, it is just another in a sea of obscure Chinese radios, right? As you can tell, I was not going into this review with a very neutral attitude. Did the Wouxun KG-UV9p win my heart?

Retevis RB22 DMR 70cm Handheld Radio Review

by
Rb22 Feat

The Retevis RB22 is billed as a new generation professional radio with advanced digital technology features. At first glance, it appears much like many other Chinese DMR radios. Is it really a professional radio, or just another cheap DMR clone?

Wouxun KG-UVD1P Dual Band Radio Review

by
Kguvd1p Feat

As I have mentioned before, I really like the looks of most of the Wouxun radios, and the Wouxun KG-UVD1P is no exception to that. Not all of their radios are the same, however, regardless of how good-looking they are. Let’s take a look at this model and see how it compares to their other radios, and to the competition.

HamGeek APX-8000 Dual-Band: Something Different, But is it Better?

by
Featured Apx8000

The HamGeek APX-8000 caught my interest for several reasons, including I had never heard of HamGeek in discussions of handheld radios before. Sure, I knew about the HackRF, but I honestly never heard anything else of them.
