Mobile Rigs for ISS comms..
OK - Here's a question from my fruitless research of ICOM and Kenwood manuals..
Which **OLDER** MOBILE rigs will work for BOTH simplex 437.8 up/145.8 down
and 144.49/145.8 comms? (Full duplex not needed)
I say "OLDER" as finances are a problem. (as is size), so used is the route.
There are a number of dual-band rigs, but the manuals or spec sheets don't say
or suggest that they can switch bands when hitting transmit, E.G. monitor 145.80 D/L
and then key up to transmit 437.8 uplink.. - The standard V/u (or is that u/V) mode? ;-)
Sorry for what is probably a simple question, but am searching for a used rig to do
