I have not seen a Chinese radio that will run on both high and low vhf. Most of those are vhf high and uhf.

 

[Jarred J.]

what are you calling high and low?

150 and 42?

that isn't made that im aware of.

If you are asking for something that covers around 50 to 150 mhz and have about $10,000.00 to spend I can point ya in the right direction.


If you are wanting to cover the more common vhf low and vhf high (136-174) thats a far cheaper option.


So what do you need to cover?

 

[MtnMan]

33 and 150-155 MHz.

Yea you aren't going to find anything like that in a reasonable price range

The only portable you'll find that does low-band and VHF-Hi would me something like the MBITR (AN/PRC-148 in military/type 1 configuration, AN/PRC-6809 in the clear/type 3 config). Expect a 5 figure price tag, very expensive accessories, and a real challenge even buying one.

Thanks for the replies. I thought I might have overlooked something, but apparently not.
