Yes, the main use of full duplex so far has been for David's testing.

Purpose-built VHF/UHF radios don't need dual-band, they can use timeslots and put the repeater on the same frequency as its input.

I had a thought about memory usage, and the idea being that in most cases (HF) people will be using the modem half-duplex.  This means that while the modem is receiving, it can allocate global memory one way, and then when it switches to transmit it can free and reallocate global memory a second way. This allows the modem to operate in much less RAM requirements.

Of course the switching time if too great would be a bummer if it took more than a second to free and allocate.

On VHF/UHF of course you really need full duplex, as almost everyone has dual-band radios these days. But that could be a "+" modem for only $49.95 USD more :-)
