Hi folks -
New to satellite, just trying to figure the process out. This list has been very helpful!
I see a lot of talk about full duplex handhelds and I want to be sure I understand. Does that mean that the HT is able to transmit on one band and simultaneously receive on the other at the same time?
I have a Yaesu FT2D I'd love to use, but unless there's a setting I'm not aware of it stops receiving when you transmit.
Any advice appreciated!

The FT2D is half duplex. You can add just about any other HT and have a full duplex system though!

This is what I do in conjunction with a MFJ-916B to fight desensitization of the receiving HT.
