i agree that there is no good exports. if you were to make me choose it would be a cobra 148f gtl dx+. not because it works good (they dont) but because i have always wanted one, i like the simple looks and they are very hard to find.
400 dollars
125 watts PEP out the box
1 diode clip gets you .3 to 30 megaherts, tx from 1.6 to 29.99999
Simple mod will net you 180 watts PEP output, clean. AM sounds AWESOME, and your just loafing your radio along.
And for those who cry foul, about it not being an export, why not? It was exported from the same country Jimmy sends his RCI crap from? Well, same REGION.
... is the Ham International Jumbo! A big black brute of a base station ; rack-mount handles, 120 channels, dual antenna outputs, very rare.. designed in Belgium and made in Japan in the 80's
The "goodest" export radio is the Galaxy 2527. Its too bad they stopped making that radio. Still, even with all its bell and whistles, its still not even close to a Cobra 2000.

Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
