My friend has a VX-7R (European version) that he is willing to sell
to me for a good price. I live in the US and am aware that the
European verison will not initially work on the frequencies I need to
work on here in the US. I was wondering if I use the freeband mod for
it, will it then be a good radio for me to use here in the US? How is
the VX-7R Us verison that has freeband mod different from the European
version with freeband?

Heleo Brad,
i think there are no great problems. the EU-version with freeband mod.
has no cellphone blocking ... And maybe the auto repeater shift does not
work?
So it is with other yaesu handies US-Version will have ever ARS in US-shift.
The vx7 is a good radio, buy it ;-)
