I'm afraid I'm only good at designing these simple boxes. I also have a bunch of near identical ones used for storing pill bottles.

I feel bad when I forget how to program one that I haven’t used in a while.

Very cool hardware, I bet they're well made and feel good in the hand. Is there a functional reason to have this many or is this just collecting at this point?

ADHD-fueled impulse purchases for the most part, though the 'Feng is my first ham radio (bought even before my license came through) and the Quansheng was a gift.

I love my quansheng! Have you played around with the firmware yet?

Not yet but that was my principle reason for getting it.

Its super easy, I used the egzumer I think it was called. First install didn't like to scan correctly, bit I wiped it and retried and its been working great ever since.
