While debating on what radio to use in my car I came between the fact that I like having the all mode capability of the FT-857D (current mobile rig) and the fact that APRS functionality would be nice for my VHF+ contest activities. So I went ahead and ordered a Kenwood TM-D710 APRS Dual band radio. I already own a Garmin GPS Map 60CSX and the interface cable so this would be a nice addition to my mobile setup. See Stock picture below.
The nice thing about this radio is that it will display your 6 digit grid square on the screen based on your position that the radio receives from the GPS....cool, no more guessing while I am in run and gun mode while in the Rover! 73 De KC2PLJ
