Nice price. I'll have to look in the cookie jar to see how much is in there.

Yeah, that's what my Dad paid ($20) in '68. I was too young to get my own, but it was for my use, and God help me if I got him in trouble over something illegal, like talking skip. I think the only time he used a CB (Midland 13-857b) was when my family ('cept me) moved from Connecticut to Texas...

Well, it wasn't in either closet, so I guess I did sell it and forgot about it (sometimes I see pictures I took of other radios I've owned, sold, and even didn't remember I actually owned it). Sorry to get your hopes up, Woody

One of the best from Kenwood. I foolishly sold mine around 2005, but in 2020 one popped up at a decent price, re-capped and de-glued. This one's a keeper.

From what could see at a glance, except for two push buttons the rest were the same. I think the George II is 1.190kg and the Washington is 1.4kg.

I think I have one in a closet. I'll take a look today or Monday

I'll be around...

And around Houston, these squatters are to get out once they're in. Like cockroaches....

They (Northern lights) were seen as far as the Gulf coast of Texas

Good deal. But then, they always run good deals after I've bought both...HAH on me...

That's about the only difference, except the clarifier. All of my overseas contacts (Ireland, and Southwest UK) took place in the mobile (President FCC). President did a bit of homework on the Georges, and I very happy to have them

It's one of the better new style mobile CB radios that I've owned. I meant to use in the SUV for a couple of weeks to see how it performed, but it's been over a month now, and I generally use the George II EU for one of my base station radios.

It works okay. Depending on the distance between you and your steering wheel, but someone looking at you in your car couldn't tell you were talking on a radio vs. singing along with a song on the FM radio. I doubt they did a deep dive into how many accidents were caused by drivers talking on a...

As I recall, it matched the McKinley FCC that my son has (but compare the sizes online to be sure). My EU looks just the same as the FCC. Just google Knights Telecom or "President EU" and you'll get several links from the UK. Knights ships to the US, and they're fairly fast getting it to you. I...

There are quite a few older Yaesu's around. I still use my '84 757GX daily, and leave it on 24/7 until I replace the internal battery that maintains the frequencies and memory channels. Once I clear some space on the bench I'll move it there and unbox the FT-710 that came in last week. Kenwood...
