    Trip Down Memory Lane

    Don't forget the Uniden 2830. I still have a 2510 and a Lincoln Chipswitched. The HXT 100 went to a new Ham many years ago and I sold the 2600. I liked the small chassis and addition of 12 meters with the chip conversion. 73 Jeff

    Albrecht AE 5900

    Note that they have installed seals on the radio and it sounds like they are not going to honor the warranty if the seals are broken. See below https://simonthewizard.com/2026/01/27/video-albrecht-ae-5900-ham-cb-hf/ 73 Jeff
