A couple of total nOOb questions.
I start my tech test prep class next month and I'm trying to sort out what I need to look for in a radio.
2M seems to be a given, but I'm hearing that a dual band radio is desirable.
Question #1- Why is dual Band so desirable.
I see a lot of 2M/440Mhz units but 2M/70cm also seems to be popular.
Question #2- Which type of dual band radio is best for mobile/expedition applications?
