           My advice if you’re thinking of going

                      mobile broadband

 

1. Do some research  I know this is hard to do '  but try to pick a good network? 

2. Do you already have a mobile phone and

                                                 Is it a good connection?

      3. Do you ever loose contact on your mobile phone

          if not’

                  go with the same company'   

          as you could get a discount on your Broadband,    

          I did….£4.00 a month discount.

 

     4. If you work in one particular aria and that is roughly

         were your thinking of using mobile broadband?    

         look for a mobile cell mast nearby you'    see if you can identify whose it is

         the mast near to me had an identification plate on it Hutchison 3G  (Other Network’s Available).

 

     5. If I was you I would try  Pay as you go  first

         and if it’s not up to scratch'   try another mobile provider    

         as you won't be tied to a 12 / 18 month contract

                     Good Luck.... Bill G0nge..

 FT 857    ok radio   Hf a little noisy 

 Ft 817     couldn't  live with it'  i need 80/100 wtts when mobile'   sold after 4 weeks

 Icom 706mkllg  I didn't have the same problems like the other 706 with Voltage

                                    but i had problems with RF

  iv never had r f prioblems with any other radios iv used.... same mobile antennas and installation

     i did get this radio second hand'   and it had been opend up ..... i give it away in the end...

 Icom 7000  Good on HF good filters...only had it 3 weeks ( no R.x on 2m / 70 cms)
