I just took a quick look at the specs between the two. The Icom has almost
twice as many memory channels, and support for CTCSS/DTCS decode!

Bill,

Thanks again for the earlier response on the Pro 82.

The plot just thickened for me (much to my delight):

Your opinion please:

Icom R-5 or Yaesu VR120D

The Yaesu has a bunch of small frequency gaps, but many complain of the
slow scan rate of the R-5. Which of the two would you suggest?

Thank you for your reply.

Much Respect,

Charlie Chan
