You do have to select ehe band on the tw2, it goes from 50, 144, 220,
and 440. I don't know how broad these bands are, but certainly not that
narrow. These types of readings are all relative anyhow. I'm sure the
6 meter band would be close enough for the 70 meg band. BTW, what was
the web page that had the a c adapters? I called a e s and they didn't
have a clue, said they didn't have anything.
