Interesting rig. I'm going to guess that "Inspection" is part of some sort of Scanning function, as it's an obvious feature not listed elsewhere. Stun and Kill are probably Pause and Stop or Cancel. Revive would be Resume. Not sure about Monitor. Maybe it opens the squelch? Ah, perhaps remotely turns on the transmitter so one can monitor what's going on at the remote side? It's full duplex, so technically you could do this. Not sure how it would ID, however.
The Vice Control, by context next to the Master Control, would be a secondary role, like vice president. The way they are depicted, Master is more of an Admin / Manager role, and Vice a User / Operator mode, with the ID codes used as remote access keys.
I'm a bit concerned about their knowledge of Ham Radio, and their intended market. They seem to be going out of their way to make it like a miniature phone system (the rig can "ring" when "called"), with 15 number codes (like speed dials?) and individual Rig IDs. The out of band examples with the repeater diagram suggest a casual regard for the law, at least by the manual's author.
Maybe the Vice Control could use the Stun and Kill functions to maintain order?
Wouff-Hong, good buddy..

Here's a link for where you can get the manual, Page 20, if you can figure it out, let me know. All it did was add to the confusion as I now want to know what "Vice Control" is:

I'm guessing it lost something in translation, but what exactly are the Stun and Kill features listed under Main Features?

Joe,
I have email in to Radio Mart about that. Their HT line gets generally good reviews based on value/$ but with the caveat that they are not on a par with Kenwood, Yaesu, and Icom WRT features and often performance. Still, looks interesting.

Has anyone played with one of these yet?

Is it true full duplex?
Pair it up with any antenna that hears the FM birds and you should be good to go?
Just Curious,
