Yaesu FT-70D, I had a Kenwood TM V71A for a while, but I sold it and it’s just the HT now. Eventually I will probably get another unit, but the Yaesu satisfies me right now.
tMV71A is a true Dual Bander with Cross Band Repeat. Not that I’d recommend putting that into 100 percent operation Good mobile or base rig.

Another option, if licensed, is Echo Link which you can load onto your phone and talk to the world. Voice over internet protocal will allow you to drop in on another repeater in any country of choice to rag chew until your hearts content.

That's a nice little handheld. Do you ever use the System Fusion digital mode with it? I've considered buying one for that purpose.
