Try looking at the new vx7-r. It is a true dual band radio - you can
monitor 2 different freq at once.
In addition, it is more powerful (5+ watts). Can be modified
(although void warranty and in illegal) to transmit out of its
designed bands (Ham).
It's also about $200-$300 more,...
Or look around for someone that still has the VX-5R in stock; most of the
7R's major features, for a fair bit less.
