Bob, Apparently you are of the opinion that VHF activity is limited to sideband and FM repeaters. There is plenty of 2 meter simplex action in New England, both horizontally and vertically polarized. There is also a good deal of 6 meter FM during openings for when you are sick of the '59 goodbye' contacts. In its current form, I don't believe the deviation is wide enough to sound full on a decent 2 meter rig. One thing is for sure, the FM transmit quality between my IC-271 and the Flex is astounding. If "proper shaping of the audio" fixes this, I'll be a happy camper.
