## Description

Yaesu DualBand Transceiver with both Analog and C4FM Fusion capability. Includes Battery and Charger.

Review: Awesome HT for entry-level Ham operators. - Works as described with Mars/Cap mod. A little "dated" but functional.
Review: The Cat's Meow - I now have 4 of these units. All but one have had the MARs mod done to them. Extremely well built, ergonomically, fits into my big paws just fine. Sound? Fantastic, both transmit and receive. I primarily use them in the vehicles with a MMDVM (Pi-Star). Just a great radio.
