Really? Dual-receive, indeed. And will perform crossband repeating. But I can transmit on one band and simultaneously hear myself on another with a FT-8800?
How else would it be able to cross band repeat? Page three of the manual:
"Featuring 1054 memory channels (527 channels each for "Main" and "Sub" band), full duplex operation with independent Volume and Squelch controls, and built-in CTCSS and DCS encoder/decoder circuits, ..."
