HI Bob, Very long no talk to. I would go with the Kenwood repeater over the Vertex. But my first choice would be Motorola. That what us guys in Wicsonsin use 73's Bob. From Rick WB9RJB --- On Thu, 10/2/08, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

A possible deal would move them to a much quieter site, and if that happens we'll need replacements. Members of this list have consistently shown a preference for Kenwoods, and it appears both brands are priced about the same. However, I'm concerned that much of what has been posted falls into the true believer category, and this decision must be based on technical data. How about it, RF gurus? If you have facts, please spill 'em. Thanks! 73, Bob, WA9FBO Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
