The FT-7800 lacks crossband repeat and other features
from the 8800.  Not familiar with the IC-208H.

The FT-8800 is the industry standard with crossband
repeat and other valuable features.  Huge installed
base and high user satisfaction -- check the eHam
reviews.

I would not own a 2/440 mobile without crossband
repeat.

IMHO, YMMV ...
