Hi Bobby. We have our own Ham Boutique magnets now also; see below.

As for 146.59, knowing Lind, that was just a typo. Lind is an old wolf who knows his stuff well I was going to edit it out but decided it was obvious.

The Icom ID-5100 is a great mobile radio that can monitor and transmit on two frequencies. It can also be used as a cross band repeater (UHF to VHF or vice versa).

Hi Lind.

Sorry for the lengthy reply, but it’s a really good question and many hams aren’t familiar with the concept.

The feature you are referring to is commonly called “dual watch”, “dual receive”, or “priority scan”, depending on the specific implementation and the manufacturer’s terminology. Here is a breakdown of these terms:
