I was wanting to keep within the boundaries of OR so, sounds like I'm going to need that General license too!
Are there any particular ones in the Kenwood/Icom series you'd recommend?Haven't had any of the chinese radios. I've had / have a few Yaesu radios including the FT-60r. The FT-60r was the go to radio 10 years ago when I got involved with my city's emergency communications group. The FT-60r doesn't have all the bells and whistles some of the newer radios have but it's still a solid performer. For me I'll likely stick with the big three, Yeasu, Kenwood and ICOM. I geet too frustrated reading chinklish manuals.

You can berate the shortcomings of the product and even lambast the US policy on imports, but no reason to drop racial slurs.My Kenwood's are somewhat older models used for mobile and base operation. A Kenwood TM-71A and a TM-D710A. Good radios that are easy to use and have the plus of being able to be setup as repeaters. The HT,s I use are Yaesu a VX-3 and a VX-8. Both can be a bit of a challenge to operate if you go awhile without using them.
And in responce to "AshWilliams" Yes ... really. I've been spending far too much time lately trying to understand poor documentation and translation trying to setup / configure new motion control boards for my CNC mills. Just about ready to scrap them and spend 5 - 10 times as much for better documented boards that have U.S. support.
