I haven't been following this thread that closely until folks 
started talking about how much speech output capability this rig 
has.  Would like to hear a demo of it and know more about the 
coverage these rigs offer.  Also, how easy it is to set up 
crossband, and is the rig open, meaning able to transmit say in 
the %FRS band etc.  73, Jim WA6EKS
