Still playing with MURS?

Want to buy a 19-1210? I've got a few IC-2100's. Blows the doors
off the 19-1210 for receive. Low power is 5 watts. Not enough to
make the g-man mad! No one on the lower 3, and the last 2 are used
by local businesses. I leave them be. No action here on MURS. Most
of the CB'ers have gone ham, and the last few CB'ers have asked where
everybody went. I tell them to scan from 144 to 148 hooked up to their
CB antenna. They need the height to hear simplex and distant repeaters.

5 watts will hit repeaters 50+ miles away from the mobile.
10 watts makes for a solid copy. 55 watts and a portable 3 element
beam, well that can win VHF contests in the mobile category!

It only took 2 months to realize the VHF FM travels farther locally
then 11 meters does. I can talk places simplex that 11 can't do!

Go figure...
