http://www.handiham.org/node/941 Amateur radio is about to be introduced to a brand-new entry
in the mobile dual-band radio category, the Wouxun KG-UV920R. Although
at this time we have little in the way of product specs, the Wouxun
dual-band handheld radio that was demonstrated at Handiham Radio Camp
early this year created quite a lot of interest because of its
built-in speech frequency readout for blind users. The KG-UV920R
features dual-frequency display and cross-band repeater capability. It
comes with more than a thousand memory channels. It also includes an
unusual receiver that covers the short-wave bands! We are waiting for
a more detailed specification document so that we can tell if speech
frequency readout will be a feature - and we sure hope that it is! At
this time, no pricing is available. The USA dealer
http://www.wouxun.us says on its website that the rig is "coming
soon". The KG-UV2D HT is featured on that website. Large
