“Regarding the S-8800, there is no information available of when this will be actually launched.

There isn’t much information available about it yet.<\/p>\n

Supposedly it is pretty much the same [chassis design]\u00a0as the existing BCL-3000, but it will be a PLL radio with DSP IC. It should have SSB features, but other details (like SYNC) I’m not aware of at this moment. I’m hoping to hear more about this soon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
