I have had one on pre order a couple months now. I was really impressed with the C700. Some say the c700's audio is low on DMR so hopefully that is fixed/addressed in the 7000.

Quoted: Anyone taken notice of this yet? Sounds very interesting... http://www.connectsystems.com/index.html Yeah but you can't get one yet. Apparently theres a JAN availability so far? I had the guy put me on the waiting list for one which might be available in March. Big back order. We will see how many of those on the list actually buy one.

I'd like to see a unit or at least some real world experience on this, but the interest is there.

OK, glad to see some folks tracking on this. I can't wait to see how it works out. I can see these replacing my stable of Baofeng's...

I wonder if they have a dPMR scrambler option for these radios. I know FCC does not allow it but it would be nice to have that capability. I remember reading that FCC once considered to allow scramblers for Amateur Radio. It's allowed in many other countries.

They were hoping to have it out back over the summer. I'm not waiting because I want one…CS has just stated that they will not even get a TRBO capable mobile out until they get the 7000 out.
I really have no interest in DSTAR but have been watching the progress of the CS7000 for nearly a year now. |

Sounds very interesting... http://www.connectsystems.com/index.html pretty cool that you posted on this, as i had just been on that site a couple days back, & been doing research on this thing. looks very cool. seems like the original goal was for it to be VHF/UHF, but now looks like he's only going to make it UHF, & there's going to be a CS7001 that is VHF (if i am reading the Yahoo group correctly). here's a link to the Yahoo group, on which the owner posts fairly frequently: CS7000 Yahoo group |

I guarantee that if any potential future ham see's that video he will run away quickly from this hobby.

I have been in their Yahoo group for about a year reading about this.
From the time I joined the group until now, it has been scaled back considerably from what I envisioned when it first started. I thought that originally it was going to be like a "white box" radio where you could load firmware into it for whatever digital codec you wanted to run. So you could have one HT that could do P25, MotoTRBO, FreeDV, DStar...................... |
