Hi Mike:
You could be right, if that is indeed the case, I won't be paying 350 for a rig that's only FM as there are no 10/6M repeaters here in NL.
There are 2M repeaters here but only about 8 or 9 people take the time to check into a nightly 2M net and that's about it. LOL 11M is still more active.
