Getting the Most from Your Handheld Transceiver
by Steve Ford, WB8IMY

Modern technology has allowed manufacturers to pack a wealth of features
into handheld transceivers. With so many features, however, it isn't always
easy to get the full benefit from your investment. Even the user manuals
don't tell the whole story. Your radio may have "hidden" capabilities that
aren't described in the manual at all. For example, did you know that a
dual-band 2-meter/70 cm handheld transceiver can be used to communicate
through Amateur Radio satellites? It's true, but you usually won't see this
discussion in your average user manual.


If you own a handheld transceiver, or if you're trying to decide which
transceiver to buy, Radios to Go! is the essential guide. Helpful topics
include:
