Thanks; For some reason, I thought 70CM Repeaters were unavailable in UK, and my W32A might be "contraband". Yes the W32A can work 420-450
We don't have 220MHz, but we do have 70MHz - maybe that's what you were thinking of?
MHz, (Mine will :-) ). Yes voice GSM is what we need for the trip. WIFI will have to suffice for data needs. --- On Fri, 11/1/13, Joe Leikhim rhyolite@nettally.com wrote:
We have 2m and 70cm, which run from 144MHz to 146MHz and 430MHz to 440MHz respectively. Because 70cm is second-user to military stuff (as it is in most of the world) there are ERP limits in certain parts of the country.
Unfortunately because of the fundamentally broken nature of the RSGB's pathetic excuse for a website, it's impossible to link to the bandplans directly. So, follow the ridiculous URL below and click on the badly-designed menu at the bottom of the page:

Here is the rather more effective and usable ETCC website with all the UK repeaters on it:
Hope this helps ;-)
