Good grief!!!  You don't know the advantages over a 5 watt ht versis a 50 
watt radio with internal speaker, touchtone microphone and oh yes, voice 
readout of all functions.  This is like saying what is the difference 
between an apple and an orange.  Many hts are prone to intermod, don't 
have near the audio output on receive, certainly much much lower power on 
transmit.  The main advantage of an ht is its portability.  I guarantee 
you with a tmv71a mobile or on an outside base antenna, you'll hit a lot 
more repeaters than with an ht.  Sure, you can hook up an ht to these, but

you're back to the possible overload and intermod problem.
