Thanks! I’m thinking of getting one of these this year. I’ve owned an FTM-100 and -400DR. Traded both only to desire one as soon as I got rid of them. One thing most of my club members find hard is the difference between the C4FM modulation and WiresX internet or intranet nodes. DMR has confused the world by having the acronym be both the modulation and internet VOIP.

Thanks for stopping by James! I agree, it isn't as easy as the diagram makes it look.

Why do you have the tax freq on the b band? Sorry I’m new. I got the ftm 200 and can’t get connected….. I thought the b band was for 144.390?

Good Day mate I Have a FTM 300 And was lookoing to Purchase the 200 I am a digital user more than FM and wanted to know your thoughts on the FTM 200 (VK5GRR )

[@HamRadioHobbyist]

I'm a big fan of the 200! I like the look and the features offered. Portability and how it fit in my budget were all factors. BUT there are lots of great options out there.

What is the distance that you can operate a repeater ( straight line ) ?

[@McRocking]

The International Space Station orbits Earth, at an average altitude of 248 miles (400 kilometers). You can open its repeater with just 5 watts into an arrow antenna.

Ese equipo es un engaño por el precio q tiene no tiene buenas prestaciones solo sirve para una sola frecuencia . No tiene Doble recepción solo en una frecuencia. Mejor equipo yaesu ftm 300 y 400 . Ese equipo es muy caro para lo q tiene.
