Subject:Re: Handheld transceivers recommendation?

I have a JRC JHP-500 comm only which is the only radio I used on a recent
cross country (MN to TX) with acceptable results. I hooked it up to an
external antenna and a portable intercom. Had some problems with reception
and transmission over 5 miles out. Only one airports Unicom said they
didnt hear us making the calls for landing.

It makes for a good backup. It will be a backup radio once I decide which
radio to install in my plane.
