I looked into this and it seems like a lot of Mk1 Lincolns in the UK suffered with the talkback issue. Mk2 had it sorted, at the factory. Its hard to put values on gear that is so old, especially iconic gear (well it is in the UK.) like the Lincoln. I think $150 ish is a good price to...

There are some fantastic pics there. Loving it - some works of automotive art in the USA. I grew up looking at you guys cars such as Corvettes, Chargers, Mustangs wishing I could have one. My own favourite was the El Camino - that vehicle makes me moist! But at nearly 12 dollars for a...

Someone in the UK is selling a Box Fresh SS 360FM (same as the Cobra 148 GTL DX) this is on a Buy it now price of £499. British Quids that is not Dollars. Everyone will say they won't buy it - but someone will...... Lincolns were selling New for £250 Quid here in 1996 So really that's...

The 148 GTL DX Still has a massive following in the UK. Here it was the one to have for a good few years too. Seems that many people still use them along with the Superstar 360. Personally I would get it fixed, they still seem to work ok. Ta. Mike

George Mobile Hi, No it wasn't the Washington Base, it was the "George" Mobile. They are thin on the ground over here, but there are a few out there, seems like the UK may be more familliar with the George - but don't know for sure. Neither are still in production it seems? If i...

Pretty Sure! Hi guys Thanks for your replies, i guess it does make sense to power both up and see which is the best fit for my purposes. They are both box fresh - i have used them - but only once or twice - always in my shack (as was back then), as they were bought on a whim i boxed them...

Hi All I found my old, but, new (if you know what i mean?) President Lincoln and President George Radio's the other day.... I fancy getting back into DX on 11 metres, I think i have everything i need, but which of the two radio's would you use most? Thanks for your help in advance. Mike.
