darthanubis Thanks this.

Thanks kd5, the fellow I meant has been a great help, and I have been listening to some of the locals on 10 meters. It definetly seems alot more, for lack of a better word, civilized up there. I started in CB and still have alot of good friends that won't make the transition, but I think I have to try it out. Seems like I'll probably enjoy it.

I'd definitely also recommend going with the D710 or a used D700 for APRS especially in the Northwest.
AKA KC8RWD -
Since you obviously need some clarification... I was referring to the previous posts that you have made, and before you start attempting to argue with me why don't you go back and review. Thanks. -
APRS on 20? neet ....
I'm seting up on PSK-31 using a signalink USB can you do 20 meter APRS with one of them ????? -

What's the ICOM version of a VHF/UHF similar to the Kenwook (I assume) 710?
-
There really isn't an ICOM similar, as they don't do APRS, but have gone into the D-Star, which is in limited areas, but growing in popularity. Yaesu has a model, FTM-350 in the works that is similar and does APRS. Don't know when it will be approved/released or price.

I remember packet from years ago. With all the email and such, it's surprising that packet is used that much today. I was thinking a dual bander would be fun. OR at least 2 meters as they are pretty cheap now ($100 or so plus antenna) I know SSB would be fun too, but maybe later.
Thoughts...
