Default Any mobiles with RX in 500mhz?

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone knew of any mobile radios (either 2m/70cm
or 2m only) with RX in the 500mhz range.

Hi Andy,

Not only will a lot of amateur gear go into 500Mhz, but I have some
commercial two-way radios (Kenwood TK-840) that are legal for operation
there as sold. Programmed with pc software.

$170 each

Yaesu & Alinco have mobiles that can do that.

Do you have model numbers? All the amateur gear for 2m/70cm or 2m monoband all
seem to top off at 470mhz.

I need a radio that can TX on 2m with general RX on 500 mhz. I have yet to find
one amateur radio that can do that. The dualbanders all seem to have a top RX
range of around 470 mhz and I haven't found a 2m monoband radio that can RX
outside of VHF.

I really just need a radio that can TX on 2m (a monobander) and RX in the 500
mhz range. I don't need nor do I want a dualbander for this application. I
should have clairified that at the begining, but I guess I didn't really know
what I wanted then...

So, does anyone know of any 2m mobiles (NOT DUALBANDERS) that can RX in the 500
mhz range?
