one of my volunteer members brought a really in-expensive radio across my desk, wanted to know if you guys have any experience with these radios please let me know. they seem to be EX-600 size, and cost aprox $230.00...


http://www.infinitygearradios.com is the link.. looking for input

I notice a distinct lack of FCC type acceptance in their brochure

interesting... didn't notice that myself... scratch that...

Not only are they NOT type certificated/accepted, but the company and the sellers were notified of violations and fines by the FCC.

So, stay clear of that 'stuff'.....

Same as the "puxing" equivelant units being sold on the 'bay for around $80-90ish...

I actually have seen the radios a year or so ago, before they were put out there for sale.

They are absolute crap. I am pretty sure I know the person who is selling them (though, not really a radio person who is) and told him a year or so ago it's a pretty stupid idea.

So who knows. I suggest staying away.

These things are generics made in China for at least a dozen or more distributers. There's a guy on another B.B. selling them under the Holzberg PX-328 label, and he claims they are Part 90 certified and soon to be Part 95A compliant.

I've seen them labeled Wadsworth PX-777, Puxing, etc... etc... etc. Prices range from about $75.00 up to $245.00. I guess some sellers think the higher they jack up the price, the better the buyer will think the radio is!

I bought one awhile back to try it out and returned it. See this thread:

If you want an email that lists all of its deficiencies and the company's responses, shoot me a PM. The new model has some improvements, but I still wouldn't buy one.
