How’d you figure out it won’t work for you. What are you going to get instead?

From what I understand VHF works the best for line of site communication ?

It didn't work well, or work at all?

Never installed it, still in original box and packaging. Never registered for warranty. From what I've been told there the ticket out West? Or flat terrain.

Why would it not work for you? I like the unit that elkaholic posted.

Made to use in flat lands, supposed to be the berries for places like Florida and out West, in the mountains you need to have the ability to bounce radio signals off the atmosphere to get over the mountains?

It is VHF only where the one I posted and a few other I will have soon cover both VHF and UHF (which can include GMRS frequencies).

Having both will allow you more options in a pinch to hit a repeater (if you have them programmed or know the frequencies).

In general, VHF has seen broad acceptance in the West while UHF has been more widely accepted in the East
