First I could not find an Icom 2072 googling.

But if you had a 10 meter radio made by Icom, yaesu, kenwood, or any other manufacturer.

Simply said "You Can't"

Modding a HAM radio to work on 11 meters is illeagle!

I understand what you're saying. I have both a 2M/440 radio and a CB in my Jeep. Not because I'm in love with the CB, but if I go off-roading with others I will need it because that is what they have. Nothing wrong with having a ham radio, but it will do him little good if he can't talk to the guy thats 100 yards in front of him.

Just my opinion.

.....Nice radio, but what do you mean "and yes its work with all bands"....??? This is not an "all band radio". It is only a dual band VHF/UHF radio. "All bands" would mean numerous HF bands as well. What do they use as the CB freqs/channels there in Dubai...???

FWIW,I googled the Icom radio mentioned and it shows it as a dual band VHF/UHF radio.
Unless Im mistaken, the freqs listed are all UHF here in the US.
Some may be used by other radio services.
