Baofeng DM-5R Manual & Software

So it's just possible the the Baofeng DM-5R dual band DMR handheld is real as the operating manual & software have appeared online at QRZNOW.COM

I'm still not sure about this radio, the price just seems too low even for Baofeng. The cheapest SINGLE band DMR radio is around £99 at the moment and this DUAL band is expected to be around £53!!!!

Also why did they not take the chance and update the look of the radio? Keeping cost down I guess! 

Only time will tell.... In the meantime below is a link to the user manual....

Baofeng DM-5R - Dual Band DMR Handheld?????

Reported on QRZNOW.COM - But surely this cannot be real????

A dual band DMR handset from Baofeng with a price of only $69.99!!!!

Not only does the price seem extremely cheap but the images used are just images of the existing UV-5R range with the lettering changed at the bottom of the radio.

REAL or FAKE - You decide!!!!

NEW - Wouxun KG-D901 DMR Handset!

Seen on Martin Lynch & Sons Facebook page:

"Gary has been playing with the prototype of the Wouxun KG-D901 DMR handheld. Honestly, it really does exist!"

There has been talk about this new DMR handheld from Wouxun for months and here it is the first photo of the radio 'in the wild'.

I'm sure it will be a cracking little radio but as it's a SINGLE BAND radio (VHF OR UHF) I think that Wouxun have missed a trick. Most people, including myself, are waiting for a DUAL BAND DMR handheld.

VHF Version: 136 - 174MHz

UHF Version: 400 - 470MHz

Price: TBA (Has been seen on some sites listed for 299 Euros - This is way too much and will need to drop)
