Chinglish!

I have just found a wonderful example of “Chinglish” on the base of the desk charger for a Baofeng UV-5R.

Let me know if you find any better ones!

    So I had to flip over the charger for my Wouxun and it says, “Only use in this model. High voltage, don’t dismantle for layman.”

    Cute, but I think you still have that one beat with yours, Julian.

    Six months or so ago I purchased a Tecsun PL-600 portable SW rx. The manual was entirely in chinese!

    Thanks to the interwebs, I was able to obtain a manual in english, which was proof read and in pretty good engrish!
