I just recently installed the optional UT-106 AF DSP noise reducer in my 910.

No it's not.
2m on your local repeater is half duplex, where you can talk or listen
but not both simultaneously.
Simplex is where you can talk OR listen but never do both.

To me, operating full duplex is like talking on the telephone. I don't hesitate
to interrupt while the other person is talking to ask a question or just add
something to the subject. Four persons in a full duplex round table can chat
like sitting at a real wood round table. It's fun.

Mike,
It depends on the transceiver that you have.
Essentially the up link and down link are using different bands, U and V for
example.
If you transmit on a V uplink your transmission is transmitted back on the
downlink on a U frequency.
If your transceiver is capable of duplex operation, you c

I replaced the meter bulbs in my G-5400B once, only to be disappointed that
they burned out relatively soon.
I have now put two white LEDs above each meter. From memory, I put two LEDs
