RE: [amsat-bb] Full duplex handhelds ?

["fish7days" <fish7days@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tim,
I use an Icom W32A for the easy sats. I upgraded the battery to 12v NiMH
so that gives me 5W out for a longer period than the stock battery. I
also like the fact that it has a dual display with independent squelch
and volume controls. No toggling between bands. Hope it helps.

Hi all,

I'm in the market for a VHF/UHF handheld to use on AO51 etc and I was
wondering 
  what gear you guys n gals are using ?

I'd be interested to here pros and cons for various handhelds
specifically for 
working the easy sats.

thanks

Tim
