So I had this spare Yaesu FT-857D sitting around and figured I'd expand my reach and capability when mobile. Thus I started upgrading my mobile comms system. So I am adding a GPS unit to the TM-710A and installing my old 857D and hooking it to a TNC. I rather like the idea of a mobile shack that can work almost any mode, anywhere, anytime.

BTECH UV50X2 I've also got a pile of surplus namebrand commercial gear and a Yeasu FT90R flying around. Tucked into the side pocket of my passenger seat is a Motorola MTS2000 and then there's a handheld in my get home bag as well.
