A new, affordable ham radio for me

And a glowy one at that. ;)

Julie got me a couple of these low price radios for Christmas since I'd dedicated my previous models to ATV & Jeep comms.  It's crazy the functions they can cram into a $30 unit these days.  It works on Family radio and other bands as well (FRS, GMRS, etc.).  Plus is came with all the needed accessories.  It's been fun to listen to some repeater chatter again over the holiday break (much to Julie's dismay, hahahaha!).

It has an emergency flashlight on the bottom and it made for a cool glowy picture when I set it on my white glass top desk in my office to program it.
