Hi y'all:
I will have some CB items coming up for review in the coming weeks and months. I'm a little tight-lipped about some of these items and brands that are going to be reviewed at this time. But I will let you know what is coming up when I get assurances from the manufacturer that the product is on the way. So you will just have to stay tuned! In the mean time, if anyone has any suggestions as to what they would like to see in particular, just leave your suggestions after this post.
I can tell you that I did have a great conversation with Sam Lewis of RF Limited a few days ago. We had a long chat and discussed his company's product line and history. I learned a lot about the radio industry from a man that had a pivotal role in shaping radio consumer electronics in that short span of time that we talked. Both Sam Lewis and his father were the owners of Palomar Electronics Corporation; a name that I trust that most of you know all too well. Most people associate Sam with the original manufacturers of the legendary Ranger AR-3300 and AR-3500 radios. That is true. The AR-3500 is much like the tip of an iceberg compared to what he has done since.
Among the may products RF Limited makes today are the Magnum radio series, the Power Band RFX-75 add-on amplifiers, 2018 Xtreme & TurboEcho mics, and the EKL line of transistors. To name but a few items they produce that we are all well acquainted with on the WWRF. I'm not going to say if I am going to review all all of the products they have; you will have to wait and see. If I was to review another product of theirs; which would you like to see?
Another radio - or?
An exclusive...
The first radio that I will be reviewing for the first time anywhere online will be the Magnum OmegaForce S45 "HP" 10 meter radio. Not many shops even have it on the shelf yet, but Sam is allowing me to take a careful peek at this unique radio. The article will have many pictures and details of this radio that Sam referred to as an 'evolutionary'. Indeed, as the original Clear Channel Corporation set the new standard with the Ranger AR-3500 -which we all know was a radio that was well ahead of its time.
Be seeing you...
