23cm radios rare?

[Se7en]

why is no one ever selling 23cm rigs? like the yaesu FT2311.....?{Cry_river}

They are rare in the States because there aren't that many repeaters and the radios are expensive.

Believe it or not I found out SMRA I think its called sulpher mountain ? Anyways it has a 900mhz and 1.2ghz repeaters that's awesome. Yea those ghz are pretty expencive that's just too bad silly sand baggers on vhf uhf. Figured it would be nice to have ghz. Ah oh well

Icom makes a specific one..as well as multiband that uses that band
Kenwood also...as well as yaesu i think

I have ( though not use too much)Icom ID-1
ID-1 1200MHz Digital Transceiver - Specifications - Icom America

....but there are actually more of those repeaters out there for that band then many may realize

I got a Great deal on it..

one of the very few radios i didnt buy new..
(because bought from a friend who i know for a fact kept it in perfect shape, with box and all original items it came with... Plus he gave me .. for free ..a TriBand diamond vertical 2mtr/70cm & 1.2 band oh and a 30 amp power supply too)

The antenna i would have needed anyways and i would have gotten same exact antenna to replace my then dual bander.

all for $800

Works Excellent
