On Saturday I flew to AZ and bought a 98 and have been driving it back to NC.
Currently in Austin for a couple days.
Loving it so far. It needs the front end tightened up and front cam seals.
thanks for the replies.
I was thinking the high power 82 because I am often in steep, narrow valleys/canyons and many in the east have very thick vegetation, so i was thinking that the extra 2 watts (with a better antenna) might at least be a help. I know it is minimal.
I clicked on this because you were working on a beater, and then saw you are also in Asheville. I taught at the Expo. I ride what most would call a beater bike, an 05 400 EXC.
Thanks for sharing your project.
Received my General license last week.
Looking for (at least a dual band) HT and will be shopping for a mobile with crossband repeater feature in the future.
I tend to like the UV 82 form better, due to reports of better build quality, better speaker (I am hearing impaired), dual PTT buttons...

I travel and teach across the US. Often in western NC.
Will be mostly on 2m/70cm, maybe 1.25m (still researching a radio).
Just took my Tech and General exams yesterday, started at 1000 hours. Had my call sign by 1230. I didn't know they could happen that fast

This has a "Not Actual Mileage Title Issued" as per the Carfax report. Last documented mileage was 148,000 as compared to the current odometer reading of 84,000.
I am teaching there.
Saw the Gen 3 with the "...Dakars" plate.
Any Gen 2.5 or 2 at the Expo?
Love to meet up and say hi (and check out your truck, if you are willing).
I am looking for a Gen 2.5 for myself, havent found one to buy yet.
Thanks,
Charly A.
