I hear you can turn this TM D-700 into a mobile repeater. I'm looking for something to use in my Jeep for when I go hiking with my baofeng and my Jeep buddies. I'm looking at an IC2730a but I'm looking for someone to guide me. I'm a newbie.
John; I'm not aware of any ham mobiles that will do same band repeat (full duplex) function. The TM-700 in my videos was sold in 2020. But, as I remember, the TM-700 DOES have full duplex CROSS BAND repeat functionality. That means you set up the two channels for different bands (440Mhz & 146Mhz) then they can cross transmit from the received input. Several other current model radios can also do that. I bought an AnyTone 578 mobile, which will do that - although I’ve not yet played with that feature. Best of luck with your experiments. What’s your call sign? 73, -Ed, WG5F-
Yes I was. The Nuvi series interfaced very well with the TM-D700. It would display other close by stations, etc. I no longer have the TM-D700a and the GPS. They were sold. I replaced the TM-D700A with an Anytone 578.
