<div>VHF were the first repeaters on the market for hams. Old Motorola’s and
other commercial repeaters. Now the UHF licenses are easier to get and the
coverage is about the same.</div>
<div>Our UHF has better coverage than the VHF repeater and they are the same
models with antennas at the same elevation. The price is now the same for
each.</div>
