Does anybody have a good source for a reliable fingerswitch set-up for the PTT for the Chinese Baofeng radios? I think I'd be even more interested in a blue tooth capable setup to eliminate all the wires.

Glidercom.com makes some good PTT systems including some bluetooth units. It takes him a while to turn them around though.

I've gone to more of a cheap and plentiful system. I'm using a simple wired system and change out parts whenever I break them. Really cheap system from Amazon:

With a coax antennae running down my harness riser I've had decent success with my radio system lately.

You can find the same Amazon item directly from China with free shipping for a few cents less here: www.dhgate.com You can also find similar products for pennies on the dollar. Some are good, some are crap, so tread carefully. I have purchased from this site and had both experiences. You can get some nice (and crappy) fake Swiss watches! I got my Baofeng UV5R radios from here for about $20 less than I could anywhere else.
