Price
For this price enclosing a good 14” to 18” antenna would have been better
Lots of accessories at a very high price
Packaging/appearance

Competitiveness
That operation takes way too long when you want to quickly kill the sound preppers beware
I can reach a 70cm repeater 30 miles away in optimal conditions on 5 watts using this radio
Even with a 2ah extended battery this radio fits very well in a hand or pocket and isnt a brick
