TIDRadio 10 Watt Handheld

This looks like an interest HT, but note the new category: Looking At It! I’m interested in this radio as a compromise between my mobile radios (30 and 50 watts), which I only rarely have in my car, and my 5 watt handhelds, which I regularly take with me and hook up to the mobile antennas. I have a lot of places I go where I can almost hit the repeaters I want to, including my own Echolink link station (KT4B/L), but not consistently.

Also, the improved programmability might be a plus.

That’s an affiliate link, which I feel more than normally obliged to emphasize, since I have not tested this item.
