Linda, you'll find that the Kenwood tmv71a is a very easy radio to program 
and operate. Once you get it up and running, you'll ask yourself, "how did I 
get along without it." I very much enjoy mine. More companys should make 
radios like that. Enjoy your new ham gear. God bless. Doug, N6NFF

Hi all,



First, I want to thank this list for all of your imput.



I just spoke to scott at universal radio and bought a nice rig for $604 and
change.



I bought the Kenwood TMV71A with an antenna and the VGS1 and power supply
that was recommended.



I won't mind telling you I am sort of nervous-as my experience with the 2
meter even with mag mount was not a good one as like I said, I live in a
condo complex.



So hold my hand please as I wait for my mobile/base unit.



Smile.

Hugs and 73
