I was considering a unblocked 780XLT to replace my PRO-2030. I have a
unblocked Yaesu VR-500 which I really like to travel with. Has anyone bought
one and is it truly unblocked? Most of the sites read continous coverage and
then go on about the ranges of freq's it will bring in.

Frequency coverage: 25-512MHz, 806-956Mhz, 1240-1300MHz Either it is
blocked or unblocked right?

I am assuming that a ubc780XLT is an unblocked version. I have bought from
www.bander.com in the past and quite happy with them. They offer one that
is "almost continous coverage" That is like saying the scanner is almost on.
I sent them an e-mail a few mins ago and hope to get a response soon.

Anyone? The cell crap doesn't really interest me but I have heard activity
on frequencies on my VR-500 I couldn't get on my PRO-2030.

Thats the coverage of a UBC-780XLT.

If your use of the word "Blocked" refers to the frequencies used by
analogue cellular in the USA then the UBC-780XL is "Unblocked".

Both the UBC-780XLt and BC-780XLT do not receive 956-1240MHz.
