(tr)uSDX is a 5 band transceiver.

The three versions are (-meter bands):
  • 80/60/40/30/20 - the "Low Config"
  • 20/17/15/12/10 - the "High Config"
  • 80/40/20/15/10 - the "Classic Config" (without the WARC bands)
There's no 8-band option, nor is there expected to be, without a lot of rework of the radio board and I do think there's not a lot of space in the firmware to make the change either.

Firmware would be no issue, but available space is, when we want to keep the form factor and SWR + Efficiency measurement. I had 8 Bands on the same form factor, but without that measurement stuff.

But for (tr)uSDX it is not planned. Maybe for the next big thing, but that´s not in reach yet.

Thanks for the information. Maybe I can pick up the low band and the high band version to cover all bands.
Can anyone recommend a reputable vendor on Amazon?

The listed vendors on https://dl2man.de/where-to-buy-trusdx/ are the only ones that are correct, and that page is canonical for vendor authorisation.

From that page, the only current Amazon vendor authorised is https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YH2V2ZP (Malahit) but they do not yet carry the hi-band config on their Amazon store.

Thanks for the reply. I will probably pick up the low band model.
