I think this transmitter is a great deal for the money. The color screen is pretty, and enables a nicer user interface. Quality is generally good. The radio is not too heavy, and balances nicely on a neck-strap. I do almost all of my development using this radio. If you don't expect to need quick-access to additional analog controls, this radio has everything you are likely to need, and I definitely recommend it as a solid buy. | I think this transmitter is a great deal for the money.

For the money, I think the Devo10 has the best price/performance ratio of any of the Devo radios. If I had to choose between the Devo8 and the Devo10, it is a hard choice. I'd probably take the Devo8, but only because it is prettier. | For the money, I think the Devo10 has the best price/performance ratio of any of the Devo radios.
