[californiadisasters] Possible new Radio - help needed

Hi All
I hope this does not violate any Group Rule. I think a Radio suac as described could be an asset to Disaster Communication. If you agree, please send supporting emails to Sam - KJ6QFS. He will compile them and send to his contact at Alinco. Also if you agree, please pass it on to others, I am sending it to many Ham's all over America, especially Disaster type volunteers and workers.

This is a good thing for Ham Radio
Sam is one of our newer volunteers in Topanga and really smart. The FCC and Radio Mfgrs are having their way with us Ham's and we need to encourage them to do more for us to expand our abilities instead of shrinking them.
Pass this on if you feel so inclined.
Thanks & 73

Hello Everyone,
I thought it would be in the best interest of the group to share this.


I write to inform that very soon, Alinco Electronics will make its final decision as to whether or not it will be a worthy business venture to produce a dual-band 220Mhz/900Mhz 50/35 watt mobile radio that they have been working on for years. Obviously, this radio would be very desirable and exciting for several reasons, most obviously because this would be the very first "off-the shelf" 900Mhz mobile ham radio in the history of the hobby. Frequency agility is obviously a huge plus, too...


A couple months ago, I spoke to a representative at Alinco over the phone regarding this radio. He told me that if I can get enough people to express interest in this radio, it will make a HUGE difference in the outcome of the decision.


A simple, short letter expressing your interest in the release of this radio can be sent to my email, kj6qfs@gmail.com . I will compile all emails and forward them to the representative, as requested.


Many thanks to the group for sharing all the knowledge and enthusiasm!
