I'm looking to get a new radio. Need one that can do ham and GMRS. So either one that doesn't need the mars/cap mod or one that I can buy already modded.
The one I'm considering is this Retevis RT95. I like that's it's small and not very expensive. Though I see it's 25W vs. some of the more expensive models that are 50W. What's the transmit limitation difference between the two? I'd say 99% of the time I'm talking to people in other Jeeps that are either within eyeshot, or maybe a mile or two away.
Any others that are similar and maybe a better brand like ICOM or Yaesu? Looks like those brands would require the mod.
I do have both the ham tech and GMRS liscenses.
