Well just for your information, I run a FT-7900 & FT-2900 right next to each other to a 10 elem Diamond 70cm and a 5 elem Diamond 2m both pretty close to each other and have never had a single problem. Considering you are transmitting on 145.850 and receiving on 436.795... Hello, a world apart there and you are only using 5 watts. You will not have a problem and you will not even need a duplexer with the two hand helds. Two radios, Two antennas, Two pieces of coax. True Full Duplex.... :)
