I don't know how much money you want to spend to start out. I'm selling my
VHF rig if you're interested. If you're on a tight budget it will work well
for you. If you have more money to spend, I suggest getting a dual-band
2m/70cm mobile.
My rig is currently at $20.50 on eBay. Read the auction page for full
description.

I am a newbie to the hobby, I arrived at this newsgroup from the "AM
window
web site,,, I will take my tech test in a few months, I need some advise
on
what to get for a transceiver and not spend a fortune. After 43 long
years
I have renewed my interest in the hobby and am looking forward to pursuing
it. Secondly, am I in the right place to ask this question or is there
another newsgroup that would be better for a newbie like me. Thanks for
all
your help,,, Gary
