<div>I was also hoping for the I/O to come along soon so as not to have to mod the USB FOBS. I bought several that turned out to not be modible. They also don't work on the bootable flashdrive and laptop setup.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am excited to start testing the Nano I/O when that comes along. You mentioned lots of I/O pins, I am a big fan of LEDS and to be able to make an LED status screen like the RC-850 would be nice. COR, PTT, Link PTT, etc.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I get my Nanos from Banggood.com, they take several weeks but you can't beat the price. They also have several I/O screw terminals for the Nano that could be very handy. You can get a Nano for $3.00 with free shipping.</div>
<div>If you buy 10 you can get them for $1.90 ea. The terminal strips I don't know how they do it, the parts cost more than the kit.</div>

<div>Here is the link if anyone is interested. Don't get in a hurry, 3 weeks is about right from order to arrival.</div>
