Should work fine.All kenwoods I have used worked fine in the ham band

[va3wxm]

Yes and no. My Type 1 TK-890's won't drop below about 443 MHz. I'm sure there's a way to adjust it, I just haven't gotten around to doing it yet.

Got Radio all programed up and working fine on gmrs and 440 ham, Nice radio

[va3wxm]

Agreed, very nice radios.

For a ham radio/hobbyist like me they're nice because they're new enough that accessories are easy to get but old enough that I don't have to pay an arm and a leg for one!
