    "content": " Years ago I did a test of the various handheld radio's available for sat\nuse. I rated the TH-F6A a distant last. Reason is that its front-end is very\nsensitive to inter-mod. The test was performed in front of HRO in DE. See my\nHT test report on my webpage. It can be found by navigating to QRZ.com then\nlookup kb2m. I also remember when I was on a business trip to Houston. While\nthere I meet with Jerry k5oe, Bruce kk5do, and Al n5afv for dinner(I have a\npicture of the group if anyone is interested). After dinner we went to the\nparking lot to work an FM bird. As my F6A was deaf from the urban inter-mod\nI had to borrow someone's HT to finish making a contact. When I got home I\nsold the Kenwood. It might be good out in the country, but it sucks in the\ncity!...\n\n73 Jeff kb2m\n\n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\nBehalf Of Tim - N3TL\nSent: Sunday, March 07, 2010 15:15 PM\nTo: 'Bob- W7LRD'; [email protected]\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: current handheld\n\nHi Bob,\n\nThe new Alinco is the only current-production HT that will operate full\nduplex; but like others, I hear rumblings about a TH-D7 replacement from\nKenwood later this year. 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\"?  What\nare we using?  I have an old IC-w32a, no longer in production. \n\n73 Bob W7LRD \n\n\n",
