Special event stations in each of the 13 colonies. Any band & mode including satellites.

I've done some googling, but didn't find anything. I've got a Baofeng that I just scan the programmed channels (local repeaters, etc.) when I'm driving around. It always stops on 70cm call, static.

I actually have the UV-5X3 triband radio but they should almost be identical as far as programming. The two beeps that sound when you first switch on the radio is annoying sometimes. I am going to shoot Btech an email too and see if it's possible. Maybe someone here knows and can preempt their answer ..read more
