I see there are quite a few Chinese 25 watt dualband mobile FM rigs out there today at great prices, like under $100. Jetstream, Leixen and quite a few other brands are out there. Has anyone tried these on the FM satellites, and if so, how do they work?

Check the archives, John. Patrick WD9EW, has done extensive tests on this subject and posted his results.
His bottom line was that it was not a good solution
