Hi Bob, 
The radio works fine. Does a lot for a small radio
I just ordered an Icom IC-Q7a to replace the VR-120
the icom allows short range transmission on 2 meters
and 440. Plus has the bells and whistles of the VR-120
I am looking at 45.00 for the VR-120 with the manual
and antenna also a set of batteries. I don't have the
orig box but who saves boxes today. I was very
suprised
to find that the Icom with 350mw power does very well
upon connecting the outside 2 meter antenna the rig
suprised me with working a repeater 20 miles away with
no problems. It also makes a nice mobile using a small
magnet mount. I found that the radios perform about
the same on 2 meters and 440. The VR-120 also does
shortwave and quite well also. I am not pushing the
radio so if interested let me know but it will be here
if you want it.

Steven
