I have the Thomas as well. My buddy was mobile and I was at QTH. FM allowed us to still hear each other quite well in all the low spots we usually loose each other on AM. We thought that was quite interesting. Since then we haven’t heard much FM traffic. Everyone is still using AM/SSB. But hopefully more people will start using the FM mode at some point. Thanks for the update.

Frequency modulation seems to nullify noise associated with amplitude modulation. These days, with all of the digital and high-speed switching devices all around, FM getting through when AM/SSB is very possible. Even a car may have dozens of interference generators, ranging from the ignition to LED light drivers.

The laws about using a hand held device in Canada for sure and most if not all states radio communications are exempt. So most places you should be able to use the hand held. But if you are in a vehicle the rubber duck antenna isn't going to work well, so you best to hook it up to at least a mag mount. Doing that makes it difficult to handle with the coax connected. So a hand mic or Bluetooth would definitely be handy

I had the Midland 75-822 before I got my (non-fm) Randy. I think the midland makes a better mobile mounted radio, with all wires coming off the bottom for mobile use. But for handheld use, the Randy is wayyy better. Feels tougher/higher quality, certainly has a better, bigger screen, and a few more features. The auto squelch and scan on the Randy are great too. I also loaned the Randy to a coworker (we both haul oversized loads) when the mobile in his truck went out, and the Randy had battery power all day transmitting and receiving. 6 AA batteries in the Midland is a big downside compared to the Randy. At the end of the day, as much as I like my Midland, it’s the one I’m more likely to temporarily install in a friends car for a day, the Randy is what I bing to work every day as a backup.

It's cool looking all right but it's heavy. It could damage the radio's antenna connector. I wish somebody made a better, longer rubber duck with a TNC connector for CB. Update: The one you want is called the "Albrecht CL-27 TNC". It's a better duck than the stock one but not too long or heavy. Impossible to find in the US or afford. $90 imported.
