We talk about the new Blackbox Base Station from Klein Electronics. It looks similar to Baofeng UV-5R, but is it a Baofeng, or is there a lot more inside the box? We also review the AlertTech EA-200 Series call boxes.
The Two Way Radio Show Podcast TWRS-90 - Blackbox Base Station
What is your first impression of the Blackbox Base Station?
I could take a dremel tool, a Baofeng and a Radio Shack project case and make one for $50. I’m actually going to do this as proof-of-concept. Sorry… this radio is kind of a joke… especially at its pricepoint.
Noticed they are for sale. Also noticed no FCC ID. Then… they are therefore illegal to sell in the U.S.A.
In the manual, I noticed no information whatsoever on FCC certification or the requirements for licensing.
