<p style="text-align:justify;vertical-align:baseline"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10pt;color:rgb(68,68,68)">On May 8th, an <strong><a href="http://www.oevsv.at/oevsv/aktuelles/Bericht-Grandsbergtreffen-und-NEW-RADIO/">article</a></strong>
appeared in the ÖVSV by Kurt, <strong><a href="https://www.qrz.com/db/OE1KBC">OE1KBC</a></strong>,
about a new dual-band, multi-mode mobile radio called the “NEWRADIO” that will
operate on the 2m & 70cm bands and support the most common ham digital
modes, including DMR, D-STAR and C4FM (System Fusion), plus analog FM. As
reported in the article, the NEWRADIO has been created by hams for the ham
radio community will feature a 1.8 GHz processor, a Linux operating system,
plus dual AMBE+ vocoders, allowing for full-duplex operation. Also, one of the
biggest features of the NEWRADIO is that it will include a built-in LTE
wireless modem and SIM card allowing it to be Internet connected while on the
go. Apparently, with it being Internet connected, the NEWRADIO will be able to
automatically download frequencies, offsets, contacts and other configuration
information on the go, allowing for instant updates for users. THis will undoubtedly
be a much welcomed feature for anyone used to loading codeplugs into radios, as
is the case with DMR.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;vertical-align:baseline"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10pt;color:rgb(68,68,68)">While this is very exciting news for
hams active with digital modes, it is not the first time that a radio has been
announced for launch, yet never actually materialized. Back in March 2014,
Connect Systems made a similar announcement about the CS7000, which was
supposed to be a multimode radio supporting DMR, D-STAR and other digital voice
modes. Ultimately, Connect System cancel the unit, however many hams remain
hopeful that one day, their dream for a a dual-band, multimode digital radio
will one day be fully realized.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;vertical-align:baseline"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10pt;color:rgb(68,68,68)">As of the date of this article, the
NEWRADIO is still yet unavailable, however it is expected to be announced
officially at the 2016 Dayton Hamvention on May 20 – 22nd in Dayton, OH. So for
anyone planning to go to the Dayton Hamvention this year, keep an eye open for
this announcement.</span></p>
