Worldwide DX Amateur Radio Forums - Ham - CB - HF - VHF - UHF

Funnily enough going by all the korean parts numbers and some units having made in thailand on them it wouldn't surprise me if most of cobra's recent calamities have been made by maxon too,build quality certainly suggests that is the case unless korea and thailand have more than one crap radio maker,sooner cobra swallow their pride and get either uniden or ranger to make their radios the better for their reputation which is now almost in tatters after the 200 gtl dx,sad how a company so renowned for quality in the past has lost the plot and is now trading on a reputation alone,how long can that reputation last with the quality they are putting out now?

The quality of the Cybernet boards wasn't really an issue, they seemed solid enough, and were no more troublesome then any other. Was more of a performance issue, as a whole. The average Cybernet built radio just wasn't capable of the performance level of the average Uniden built radio, were some rare exceptions, but not often...
