    Really couldn't tell you. I picked them up without knowing any thing about them. It took me a little bit to figure out how to set them up to use. A buddy of mine who does the ham radio thing as a hobby said they were decent radios and helped me get them set up. Sorry I don't have any info for you.

    Price drop. Willing to let it go for $300 or trade for a Makarov pistol. The Mak doesn't have to be perfect. Looking to get one to do some tinkering with. Also willing to trade for ammo. .45 acp, 7.62x39, or .270 Win.

    Not that I am aware of. Honestly that thought never crossed my mind. I am not even sure where to start looking for laws regarding that. You have any advice on where to start?

    I am not current but it appears to me to have frequencies available that require licensing and some that do not. Someone better versed in current regs may pop in and help. All I know is that these are fine robust radios.

    Is there a manufacturers label "inside" the radio? Where the battery snaps in? It should list model number, band, frequency range, and other info. That would help figure this out.

    Looks like you've got UHF radios there, that operate between 380-470MHz. The band plan for amateur operation on the UHF band is between 420-450MHz. You need a license to operate on those frequencies. I am not aware of any need to have a license outside of 420-450MHz, but I am no authority on that. Most of those IHF frequencies outside of 420-450 are used by different agencies from govt, to law enforcement and EMS, for example.

    Fact sheet on this radio:

    Those are mighty fine radios. EF Johnson makes a great product. Where I "work" is switching to 7/800 digital in a few months or I would jump on this.

    Thanks for the info, jmsiv. I keep hearing that these are great radios, but no one is buying. Serves me right for buying them in the first place with out doing the research.
