John and all;

The ICOM T8A is a great radio, I have one. Unfortunately it does not 
meet   NTIA compliance and is therefore not useable by either MARS or 
CAP. MARS does have a limited exemption but that is going to run out 
making the radio useless except for HAM Radio.

For those interested in just which radios are considered in compliance 
with NTIA go to the CAP National Technology Center web site. Follow the 
prompts to HF and VHF lists. This listing is also being used by other 
Federal agencies for their selection of compliant radios.
