YAESU FT-60R Ham Radio Mod?
I just bought my first ham radio, a Yaesu FT-60R. I previously had some cheap GMRS/FRS Midland 2-way radio, but it was not repeater capable.

You can find some NICE used Motorola HT's and put them on GMRS for less than you paid for the FT60.
try the guys at www.bat-labs.com - a bunch of hams that use //otorola radios.
