Thanks, looks like a nice setup. Of course you could sell me swamp land for all I know about radios at the moment (lol), but I appreciate it as a good starting point.

Am I correct to presume I could do both voice and digital with this?

The ICOM site says this works RX Frequencies: 0.030-74.800 but it didnt give units. Is this MHz and equivalent to 4 meter down to 10000 meter (is there really an antenna for 10K meter?) or did I goon this up?

I presume its not 2 meter and I would still need my VHF handheld for that.

Yup, but if you want a Shack in a Box get the Yaesu 991A. Or Icom 7100, but they have that overshoot problem don’t they?
