1. What radio should I buy between the two: Yaesu VX-7R or Kenwood TH-F6A 2. Where should I buy it from (price) or maybe someone sells one used ? the first question: I want this radio in order to be able to monitor (listen) to all possible things: weather, radio, police chat, trackers, taxi dispatchers an so on. Also I would like to be able to talk back to some of them (definitely not a police ![]() While you may be able to receive most/all of those sources (because both models have a wide-band receive function) , it is very unlikely that any of those services are using ham bands, which would preclude you from "talking back" to any of them. Also neither radio will transmit in the bands they are likely to use. Fortunate for you since is is almost certainly very illegal. A "scanner" type receiver seems more suitable for listening to the various services you mention. Particulary in a large city where they use "trunking" and other systems for sharing (and jumping around) between different frequencies. Many scanners are progrmmable to handle this. But neither of the radios you mentioned can follow these kinds of conversations. |
