I'm not sure that I would use an HT to cross band repeat, however I have had several instances where it would have really come in handy where I was not able to set up the mobile unit. I've got a small dual band amp I picked up at a hamfest, and it pumps out about 25 watts VHF, and 15 on UHF, and this Puxing would be perfect. I wouldn't have to worry about leaving my Kenwood TM V71A in the car because I normally just put the Kenwood on the seat I dont have it mobile mounted because I take it in and use it as a base.

The Puxing can also run off a cigarette plug, so running out of HT battery wouldn't be an issue.

Also, even if you don't cross band, this Puxing is true full duplexing and you can vary the volume of the A band and B band, and hear both simultaneously seeing as how it is full duplexing, and thats a nice feature.

You can pick them up for $90 with free shipping out of California, and not have to wait for a unit from China. I'm thinking about trying one out, if I dont like it I can always sell it locally on the Swap N Shop net....

Here's a link to the Puxing on Ebay.. Looks good...

[QUOTE="Nicholas440, post: 432933, member: 26846"] I'm not sure that I would use an HT to cross band repeat, however I have had several instances where it would have really come in handy where I was not able to set up the mobile unit. I've got a small dual band amp I picked up at a hamfest, and it pumps out about 25 watts VHF, and 15 on UHF, and this Puxing would be perfect. I wouldn't have to worry about leaving my Kenwood TM V71A in the car because I normally just put the Kenwood on the seat I dont have it mobile mounted because I take it in and use it as a base. The Puxing can also run off a cigarette plug, so running out of HT battery wouldn't be an issue. Also, even if you don't cross band, this Puxing is true full duplexing and you can vary the volume of the A band and B band, and hear both simultaneously seeing as how it is full duplexing, and thats a nice feature.
