Gang got it love it! I can hit a repeater 80miles away with this little HT!! Never thought 2 extra watts would make that big a difference.
Now anyone have the programming software and programming cable I might borrow for a wekk or less???
THANKS

Can't help with the cable, but check out this free software:

I've used it to program my IC-2200H and an IC-E2820.

Great software with excellent support from the developer.
