Oops.
Yes your right. In the Feb 22 thread.
I just did an amazon order for the EtekCity combo pack, with another radio, the cable and cd. so now I will have 2 radios. I also got the 2 hand mikes and the upgraded antenna. 57 bucks for everything.

Yes I had one I bought a couple of weeks ago. Sorry for the mix up.
It is a good deal. Worth it.

Thank you I just ordered one and this info is so timely is crazy.

same here, I just picked all this stuff up from Amazon. The purchase was a total shoot first then ask questions since I got this great deal before I even knew how to use it.

Anyone try to connect the SP out of the UV5R to the Raptor's radio?
