There is a fundamental difference between the D700 and the TH-D7 handheld.

The D700 has TWO dual-band receivers. Either or both of them can be 
tuned to either band;  i.e. you can listen VHF/UHF, VHF/VHF or UHF/UHF. 
You can have the left side set to 144.39 and the right side set to 
another 2M freq truly simultaneously.

The TH-D7 has two SINGLE-band receivers.  You can monitor one freq on 2M 
(probably 144.39) and another freq on UHF (and even operate full duplex 
transmitting on one band and receiving on the other) --but-- you cannot 
simultaneously listen to 2 different frequencies ON THE SAME BAND.
