The D7 was full duplex.\n\nPosters here an elsewhere haven't given the Alinco high marks for its\nabilities to work the FM satellites. I haven't tried it, so I hope those who\nhave some experience with it will respond to you.\n\nAll of that being said, I would recommend the Kenwood TH-F6A from the group\nof currently available non-full-duplex radios for one major reason - its\ngeneral coverage receiver is all mode. I borrowed one from a ham friend\nseveral months ago and, over the course of a weekend, use it as my receive\nradio with a FT-817ND as my transmit radio to make multiple contacts on all\nof the then-active linear satellites (AO-7 Mode B, FO-29 and VO-52). It\nperformed very well as I worked all passes without a receive preamp for\neither VHF or UHF.\n\nIt will work the FM satellites, while providing the bonus of giving\nnewcomers a chance to copy AO-7, FO-29, HO-68 in linear mode and VO-52. I\nsuspect that when they've heard a few passes of the linear satellites, they\nwill be interested in trying to get on them.\n\nI hope this is helpful.\n\n73 to all,\n\nTim - N3TL\nAthens, Ga. - EM84ha\n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\nBehalf Of Bob- W7LRD\nSent: Sunday, March 07, 2010 2:10 PM\nTo: [email protected]\nSubject: [amsat-bb] current handheld\n\n\n\nI have been asked- \"what is the best current handheld for FM sats\"?
