      Ham Radio Outlet has them in stock now.  I took at look at one at the  
Sunnyvale store last week.

Hi All,
They had them on the table at the Jackson, MS hamfest yesterday.  They
have a very big display that would be easy to read in a mobile  
install.
Price was $599 for this dealer.  For those of us that use 220mhz,
we were disappointed that it only has 1 watt on that band.
73 to all,

John,
I just saw an advertisement in QST (page 6 February issue) for a  
Yaesu
FTM-350R dual band rig that may be interesting. It has 2m & 440, with
1200/9600 packet.
Other features are bluetooth capability as well as APRS/GPS, as  
well as
other features. It's not available yet in the U.S. It still has to  
get FCC
approval. Looks like we'll have an option to the Kenwood TM-710.
Has anyone outside the US had any experience with it yet?

What are considered the best dualband FM rigs for working the mode  
J FM
sats-like AO27, SO50, and AO51?  Which hear the birds the best on  
70cm FM?
