Thanks N, that looks very useful and easy to operate even w/the wide range of options.
I do have a question – how well does the charge last ‘on the shelf?’

I’m afraid I am blocked w/some family commitments over here on the other side, until Monday.
In Butano Canyon proper Jerry and Catherine have the proper amateur equipment to call in status reports.
Should power go out the Butano GMRS repeater has a 6hr battery, unless our generator is running.

One way around this is to change the default squelch levels. I’ve done this for the Butano BaoFeng Fleet and that type of issue has apparently gone away.
Most of these class of BaoFeng…[Read more] -
