[SixClub] Anyone tried a Yaesu VX-7R on 6M?

[Eric Mynes]

I have a VX-7R.  I also have 50.400AM programmed into it.  I use it to test
Multimode 6m rigs and at hamfests to talk to other ham buddies.  Insures
that I have a frequency that no one else is on and that I don't have to
worry too much about interferring with anyone else.
