 The Radio Shack 2 meter handheld is an Excellent Plain Jane unit.
forget any tricks and Mods because there are NONE. But in Return you
get a very good "Tight Front End" 2 meter unit that will still work when
most of the "All Bells and Whistles" units are swamped with intermod in
RF saturated metropolitan areas.
