    I like the size of the yaesu compared to the kenwood to me it was just a bit too small in the hand

    I still believe for basic 2m440 use this radio is the best radio is not hard to learn to program and does not have a ton of different options that will require you to have the manual always close by just to operate it

    One features that i wished this radio had but doesnt is dual receive sometime but not always its kinda nice to monitor 2 channels at once this radio doesnt offer that feature however to get a radio that does be prepared to pay almost double the price

    I use the frs and gmrs channels listed in wikipedia which allow clear communications in areas where even cell phones dont work
