Can anyone who has the radio tell me if it is possible to crossband multiple frequencies? Basically I want to listen to the WIN system, and two other local repeaters, not all the time but switch through them. Can I use Simplex Freq 1 to listen to Repeater A, SF2 for Repeater B, SF3 to listen to...

I do not see a power supply made by jetstream...can you provide a link please?

R and L huh? I will have to look them up. How long have you had your power supply? Forgot to mention I already have a dual band 2M/440 base station antenna, all I might need is a BNC connector to whatever the Alinco has. I've read reviews on the Alinco..I'll be coming from a Wouxun hand...

If I did have to buy a DC Power Supply, as the Alinco only reqs 12A, would this suffice? 13.8VDC 15-Amp Power Supply : Power Supplies | RadioShack.com

Hey all, I'm highly considering this Alinco DR-635T mobile rig as my next upgrade step in HAM. I exclusively want to use this at my base station, in my house, hooked up to power from my house. Obviously this radio is not designed to do this, so wondering what I need to do short of buying a...

Is there a way to do a manual ID, and if so, how does that work?

Ahh, much better..thanks :)

Ya, I have been looking at that. It says its on the 430Mhz band though...iirc that does NOT cover the 440 / 70 cm band? Question about power..as I am not planning to use this in the card with a cig lighter, can I use a cig lighter to AC power adapter, or do I need to purcahse an AC power supply?

Can you rearead that and correct it, specifically the "not all radios and off the top of my head.. Which is "the kenwood" you are referring to?

So you do not need a Xband radio to Xband then? Any radio can do it? Do you have any favorites for mobile 2M/70cm radios?

Alright, that was how I understood it. How does one get the xband repeater to ID on both freqs? Is that an automatic function, or is it done manually? Newbie here, help is appreciated

So what does the "crossband" function of a radio like the Wouxun actually do then?

Hi all, I've had my Wouxun KG UV3D for about three years now, and am looking to upgrade to probably a mobile or a base station unit. Something that is 2M/440 with 30 to 50 watts of power. I'm curious if a mobile or base station radio will need to have a dedicated "crossband" function, or if...

Recently I have been having this radio reset on me. Once it did it in the middle of transmitting, the other two times it did it when I powered it up after using the PC cable to input freqs. Has anyone had this issue with this radio before, or figured out if it is a component failure?

I have a KG UV3D which seems to be resetting itself back to defaults. Does anyone know what might be causing this, or had a similar problem?

Ya, I would like to have 440 also, but I'm guessing that will bump the cost up higher. Although, come to think of it, I only use 440 when 2M won't work..hmmm

I am looking for a mobile unit I could use as a base station, I already have the antenna for a base station, but really want more power than the 5W on my handi talkie. Been looking online, looks like the cheapest ones out there are still about $250. Was hoping for something a little less, say...

I know mine does, but mine is a few years old...UV3D is my model

That looks along the lines of what I am looking for. How the heck do they connect to my radio though? I assume I could no longer use it as a handi talkie?

I have a Wouxun KG UV3D which is limiated to 5 watts. I was talking to someone on the repeaters the other night who said he had a 2A handitalkie which he had amplified to 20A? Wondering if this was done with power, or an antenna amplifier, or how he got the extra punch for his radio..his signal...
