The Ukrainian, hope the spelling was ok, transverter seem like an economical way to get on the band. I would think the antenna would cost more. Mike

I fully realize that the root cause of no 222 MHz radios is that the band
is only available in Region 2 (and the manufacturers aren't).  However,
every once in a while a radio with 222 MHz appears such as the IC-375 or
the Yaesu FT-736R.  It's FM, but I've had a Kenwood TM631A (144 and 220)
and an Icom IC-37 for years.  Anyway, I keep hoping that, with sufficient
activity in Region 2, the almighty dollar sign will be ignored.  WA3EOQ
