    President Grant 2........?

    Connor , Whilst I understand what your saying. I'm sure they have a decent reason for what they have said. You know as well as I do, no 10 meter radio or splatter box solid state linear is illegal to sell in the UK to anybody with or without an Amateur ticket. That's the law, we all know...

    President Grant 2........?

    Sadly I'm sure any dealer is in a tricky position on this request. As for shipping I have a good Friend in the States who has found me a mint boxed Cobra Cam 88 and a Siltronix 1011D for my collection. But the sad fact is neither our goverment or yours helps with transatlantic deals. We get...

    President Grant 2........?

    I look forward to comparing notes, I was talking to some locals the other night and said it would not sell due to it not having a chrome front (honestly:confused:). Maybe try telling Yaesu ,Kenwood and Icom that. You have done well to receive one so quick as they are not available in the UK yet.

    President Grant 2........?

    Well it makes a change that us Brits are not ripped off with prices (try importing radios from your fair country and pay all the duties and VAT on top:thumbdown:). Well this radio on first impressions and after around 15 hours of airtime is everything I expected and more. I'm very happy with...

    President Grant 2........?

    President Grant 2........?

    Well I have the first one in the UK prior to release for my M0OGY Radio and Antenna review Youtube channel. I have had some cracking reports all day commenting on the quality of the the TX audio. It is Uniden and it has a build quality sadly lacking in many modern radios. Here's a couple of...

    My old friend President Jackson.

    Thinking about it, I think these are possibly not Genuine products

    My old friend President Jackson.

    It's a shame they don't relaunch a proper Jackson 1 or Lincoln (Uniden 2830) as in the UK originals are highly sought after and fetch mega money , not uncommon to make £250+ for the Jackson and £300+ plus for perfect boxed Lincolns (but these are President branded) Surely Superstar must make a...

    sirio 827 5/8 vs gainmaster

    What?? I don't know who your refering too.....but I do understand how Yagi beams work. I use various Yagis for all other bands, I never compared this antenna to a beam, but it outguns every other vertical Omi I have ever owed in 30+ years.

    sirio 827 5/8 vs gainmaster

    One Year On!!! Well a year has passed since I conducted my first tests of The Sirio Gainmaster. It is waiting to go back up in the place of the Bigstick in spring. It's superb that nearly everyone has come to the same conclusion I did back in November 2010. Indeed this antenna is not Snake...

    1.5 KW PEP Gain-Master Modification

    Well Done! Nice findings Shockwave. I took my Sirio Gaimaster down at the end of summer to put a 5 element Jogunn yagi on the tower. I checked it over and other than the RF Choke red coax getting bleeched by the sun (Sirio are using more colour fast dyes they say now), mine is as good as when...
