The Zastone ZT-D9000<\/strong>\u00a0radio has actually been out for a while and is a Dual Band Mobile (Triband with option), nothing fancy there and bears a striking resemblance to the Icom IC-2820H (clone?). Options include GPS, Bluetooth, 220Mhz and LW (The latter is really weird!).<\/p>\n

What caught my eye is the 2.3-30 MHz Shortwave coverage, a quick search on YouTube<\/a> turns up a video showing Shortwave working!<\/p>\n

Yes, probably as wide as a barn door with no filtering except the 12kHz default but an extremely useful feature if you did need a dual band mobile in your jeep\/car.<\/p>\n

Two other noteworthy features are a dedicated RX BNC antenna socket and a built in FM Transmitter so you can listen to it on the FM Radio in your car\/jeep, very cool. A bit like a pimped IC-2820H. Also has all the bells and whistles a Dual Bander should have,<\/p>\n
