Quick question, is the M2 bullet (not the HP version) also supported by BBHN?

Thanks,73.

Hi Bert, the two Bullet devices are the M2 HP and the M2 Titanium. The M2 HP comes in a plastic case and the M2 Titanium comes in a metallic case. To my knowledge they are both 600mW radios. Andre, K6AH

They are both supported by BBHN. I have an M2 Titanium and I'm real happy with it. Andre, K6AH

Thanks for the response, Andre. If you look on eBay, for example, some sellers offer used M2 Bullets for sale, but they do not mention "HP". And the label on the unit is not multi-colored like the latest offering. So I wonder if there is an M2 Bullet, non-HP version out there. So you say they are HP's but the sellers do not mention it?

The Bullet M2 HP has color LED indicators... the Bullet M2 Titanium does not have these LEDs.  In the image, below, the two on the left are "Titanium"... the two on the right are "HP".  So, while there was an earlier Bullet 2 device which we don't support, there is no Bullet M2 without either an "HP" or "Titanium" designation.

OK, just received the two M2 Bullets I had purchased on eBay. Nowhere on the units is it written "HP". But the units are working fine with the BBHN firmware. This confirms what Andre said above. 73! Bert, VE2ZAZ
