     The Johnson Six & Two is an AM /CW Xtrm, but it might be possible to
attach a Single Sideband adapter to it.  With a FM-VFO (or a modified VFO),
It will operate in the FM mod .  I haven't tried it, but some of the older

Yup! I still have the Alinco DR-110T. It's a 45 Watt 2 Meter mobile
rig. Do you plan on using it voice? I'b kind of like to keep the mic. I
plan on getting an Alinco DR-130-PKT (packet) and it doesn't come with
the mic. I would think Alinco wouldn't change them that much that the
mic from the 110T SHOULD work with the 130-PKT. Can you imagine....
They want about $30.00 more for the 130T just because it has a mic?
