Venus SW-6B Six band QRP CW radio

A newbie with a very unusual design and features: housing with hinged lid, internal Li-Ion battery, internal SWR bridge, internal loudspeaker, …

A lot of radio, considering the price - and already available, hi.

Edit

Looking more closely, this design is not as new as it seems at first glance, it reminds me a lot of the very practical and pretty MTR3B Go Box from Martin, DK3IT.

Reading the manual, it reminds me of the HB-1B, a lot of the features are the same (tuning steps, operation of VFO/MR, use of letters A/M for paddle/key, same battery, separate DC & charging ports, …).
It has only two message buffers for 20 characters ??
Makes me think it works like the HB-1B, those buffers are just enough to store your callsign, and the CQ message is fixed, so no chance to make it send “CQ SOTA …” (the manual doesn’t really tell much about it).
