From what I hear, other than the Kenwood, the 7R is the go-to radio for most people. However, there's ~$80 difference between those units (new) and the 8R. Buy once, cry once? It appears the accessories are really what where they kill your wallet. Truth be told, I really have no idea what I need, so I appreciate your reply. I'll talk with the folks at HRO tomorrow, handle some of the radios and get a feel for the game. I also really like the 3R because of it's size. I do a lot of mountain biking/hiking and it seems like it would be a great carry radio for such an excursion.
