Koby,
Sorry man, sometimes I forget where I am and who I'm talking to.
Fat chance you'd find any repeaters in the deserts of the Arabian Peninsula!! For truck to truck my T7100 would work just as well as your 5x$ Yaesu.
Use an earbug headphone if you have a problem hearing the damn radio. After all, it's not the size that matters, it's how you use it and where you put it!
I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... I'm in the f**king desert ... !!
