https://hamgear.files.wordpress.com/...0x3combo-s.jpg Four years after
its initial design, the VGC 6600PRO has evolved into the BTech UV-50X3, a
full featured Tri-Band mobile that delivers a full 50W on VHF and UHF, with
addition of a 220 MHz module that delivers 5W output.Â* The 220 MHz module
was specifically designed and filtered for 222-225MHz US ham band
operation.Â* I mention this as there are currently radios being advertised as
Tri-Band operating in the range of 240-260MHz that are not adaptable to
frequencies below 240MHz due to their internal filtering.
