    what radios have the best ears ?

    UNIDEN GRANT XL-HR 2510/2600-PRESIDENT WASHINGTON. OLD 148 COBRA. THE 2950DX HAS GOOD RECEIVE BUT THE WHITE NOISE IS ATROCIOUS. I GOT 3 UNIDEN GRANT XLS, A BUNCH OF 2510/2600 AND A 2950DX. THE OLD RADIOS ARE FAR BETTER FOR LESS WHITE NOISE BUY FAR. MY 2510 AND 2600 ARE THE BEST.

    New generation Cobra 148GTL

    A lot of hard core cobra fans beleive the old original 148 cobra was/is better than the new ones. i tend to agree. but truth be told ive never owned a new or old 148 cobra. im a uniden grant xl man myself. for a couple more bucks i think id just get a new rci 2950dx. my 2 cents.

    i dont really remember how much the power spike actually is. havnt fired my 706 up in awhile. i got a 2510 that does this also. spikes to about 14 watts then settles to 5 watt carrier. youd probably have to turn that 706 down to a 5 watt dead key on am then youd probably be no better off than...

    ICOM 706MK2G TO AMERITRON AL-811H

    Moleculo, i emailed bob the guy that makes those cables to key the amp and he said there is no physical room in the plug to put a alc line. so as far as the 706 to that amp i guess it wont have one. i got a 756pro2 that has the alc/send and assesory plug so a guy could hook up a alc line on it...
