Hi;
No air is southern Louisiana?  That sounds more serious than some of our
radio dilemmas.

I have one in my van, but a 261 is not a vhf and uhf radio.  IT's vhf
only, 2 meters.
sEtting pl tones etc. is difficult on this rig without sighted
assistance.
AS for mine I have to watch it when running mobile as it overheats
easily, but yet my air conditioning doesn't work in my van and I live
in southern Louisiana.
