And the V7A has an excellent receiver in it! QST measured it as more
sensitive on UHF than most dualbanders. I miss the one I had, and wouldn't
mind finding another.

If it hasn't been mentioned, the Kenwood TM-V7A, the starting point of all
the D7XX family, also works well on full duplex. I have had a few Mobil
QSOs using a poor, for satellite ops, antenna. The only problem is that
the
original display tends to fade and develop lines, which eventually render
it
unusable. At one point, Kenwood fixed them free, and the replacement in
mine is still excellent after 10 years.
