My collection of Motorola hand-held transceivers is complete with the Motorola XPR 7550 VHF hand-held transceiver, shown below. The Motorola XPR 7550 VHF transceiver will take the place of my Motorola Radius CP200, as shown in the picture, below. I will either sell or use it as a back-up for VHF communications.

I got hooked on Yaesu with my first HAM transceiver, which was the hand-held Yaesu VX-6R. When I got into the HAM network, I didn’t have any guidance.
