    Will Hytera Ever Make A Dual Band Radio?

    I know I can't be alone in wondering if Hytera will ever produce a dual band radio. I would especially love to see a version of the PD782 or PD982 that has both UHF and VHF capability. And certainly I'd like to see a mobile rig from them that does the same. I understand why they haven't gotten...

Are the radials supposed to supply the entire...

    Mobile Antenna for HP-2

    Have been doing a lot of reading on the Antenna Forum and have concluded that getting a Larsen NMO150/450/800 fixed mount antenna makes sense for the type of monitoring I am doing. My only concern is VHF-Lo band for Maryland State Police. Any suggestions on a low band mobile antenna to mount...
