I am brand new to the HAM world and see hundreds of radios available for sale - but they mostly seem to focus on a specific (narrow) band. are there any radios (transceivers) that operate on all (or perhaps a majority) of bands? It seems more efficient to have one radio that covers a large portion of the bands than to have 20 radios all tuned to one small area. [altho I suspect you can't have one antennae that covers all the bands - so perhaps that's a limiting requirement?] thanks, |

It was recently discontinued, but the Kenwood TS-2000X covered the 160 to 2M ham bands, 440, and 1240MHz. Japanese rigs typically don't have the 222MHz band because the Japanese don't have that as a ham band. Zak Lau W1VT ARRL Senior Lab Engineer |

The Yaesu FT-991A and the Icom IC-7100 also have 160-6, 2 and the 70 cm Amateur bands. |
