For those who do public service, do you use a dedicated dual band VHF/UHF radio, or the same all-band, all-mode radio you use for other activities like POTA?
lemmy.radioFor those who do public service, do you use a dedicated dual band VHF/UHF radio, or the same all-band, all-mode radio you use for other activities like POTA? - Lemmy.RadioI’m inclined to go with the long-term cost savings of a radio that does
everything but wondering if others have good reasons to go with a dedicated,
simplified rig. I would be purchasing used equipment either way. And would have
to use either radio for base as well as mobile use. #PublicSevice #VHF #UHF
@K3LOE Prefer dedicated radios (typically lower cost and feature specific to the PS functions needed). Have concerns for loss/damage so do not bring $$$ radios or accessories to PS events. Typical individual station: dual band HT, speaker mic, standard and extended range antennas, extra batteries, case/holders, etc.
