Yes and no. Check the bandwidth listed for the UHF portion of the antenna. If the bandwidth covers the frequencies needed then yes, it will work.

Well, your right and wrong. The emmision for CW is indeed A1A. However, a repeater ID is NOT transmitted as CW. It's Morse Code as a tone transmitted on an FM carrier. The transmitter is legal due to this. NO one with an FM repeater gets an emission designator on their license for CW (A1A) because of this. Because they are NOT transmitting CW they are transmitting Morse Code. The CW emission A1A, is a modulation technique where the carrier is switched on and off as the method of modulating the carrier. If you were to hear a true CW emission on an FM radio it would be carrier being switched on and off. Basically it would sound like someone kerchunking the repeater and sending CW doing so. What you hear is an FM carrier that is modulated with a tone generator transmitting Morse Code intelligence on that carrier.

Yes...some antennas are more forgiving (wider range covered) than others. One example is the comet 2x4sr. Covers 2m, MURS, 70cm, and GMRS. On the downside, it's ~36" long. Still available, as far as I know, in both nmo and uhf bases. (I'm partial to nmo for its wide availability, so I can swap whips at will.)

But Class A of the Citizens Radio Service did... GMRS is essentially a renaming of that "Class" system. The renaming took place in 1987... FRS is a mishmash promulgated by RatShack in 1994, originally using only the interstitial channels (and creating 467 interstitials). I no longer have the paper, but my original GMRS license (not labeled Class A) had the two frequency authorization. I'd have to dig up the Maxon radio to find which two...

It is only legal on gmrs. Unlocking it will make it an illegal radio. Sent from my SM-A125U using Tapatalk

Imagine living a life where you get so angry and butthurt over videos that nobody forces you to watch, that you then go around complaining and making up stories every chance you can.. We should all pray for sad people like this.

I would say NanoVNA v2, it does everything you'll need. G.
