Most VHF radios on the market that can receive
things can transmit on those same frequencies, the problem is not the marine band, that can be done easily, although not legal or fcc/coast guard type accepted, although the problem comes in with the aircraft band, that is AM and these rigs don't have AM tranmit modules. Being a Ham for that length of time, I would imagine you knew that though, just get two rigs, an HT for aircraft transmit and an IC 2100H will do the rest -- Patrick Patrick H.

Howdy: I'm looking for an emergency radio to cover the marine, aviation and 2 meter ham bands. The Yaesu VXA-700 looks good as it covers the ham and aviation bands but I have found no conversion for transmitting on the marine band---just receive only. Anyone know of any handheld tranceiver that has the capability of transmitting and receiving on the three bands modified or otherwise? OK... OK... yes I know... legal issues... I've been a ham for 40 years, flying for 30 and sailing aboard ship as a Radio Officer for 20. I'm just looking for one unit for emergency communications instead of two or three separate units and associated accessories; batteries, charger... Best regards |

Wow,
I love being mistaken when I learn something new from it. I will have to got to the yaesu website and check it out, I must have 3 separate TX units on it, two phase modulation and one AM.
