Is this Ebay listing accurate?

As I understood it Systems Sabers are capable of up to 255 channels, but this only says 16 channels.

Phil,

It IS a 255 channel radio. The person who wrote the ad just doesn't know anything about the radio except what he can see written on it. Typical for many Saber and System Saber auctions on eBay. Note how he also left out the factory ID which is probably H43TUK7139CN.

Just remember that Systems Sabers won't do narrow band channels.
