    Local in person auction pays off for some good CBs.

    Either way, work or not it's a good deal if for nothing else the parts.

    Cobra HQ

    No it's the same, that has been the Cobra HQ since the early 70s. I just think the CB biz is not big for them anymore.

    Cobra HQ

    The world HQ of Cobra, its about 10 miles north of me. Stopped there once and everything was about radar detectors, FRS, and commercial radios but no CB.

    Home Retevis Ailunce HA1G GMRS IP67 Handheld Review

    Thanks, I am finding I have a strong distaste for color displays on the Chinese stuff as I have yet to see one that you can easily read in daylight. Currently, I have 17 different HTs so it's not a single manufacturer issue (yes it probably is in reality).

    Home Retevis Ailunce HA1G GMRS IP67 Handheld Review

    Based on the photos here the display looks very dim like the typical Baofeng ones. Is it that dim? The mic location is a stupid move on there part. At $75 it seems to be over priced, do you have that feeling as well?

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    Never said it didn't work, I have run FM on 10 many times. Its cute on 11 meters because its new and a lot of ops have never used it and know very little about it.

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    Maybe but honestly FM is cute on 11 meters but SSB is in my opinion still the most useful. If they want to run AM get a 29..:-)

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    At $589 its in my opinion a complete waste of money. They are much better radios that will run circles around this one. One that comes to mind is the ICOM 718.

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    Yes pick a color but honestly it's a not reinventing the wheel type of thing.

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    Not that I will ever buy one, but the look is exactly what I like about it. It looks like an actual radio, not a computer in a box with a mic.

    Anytone Ares 2

    I have a couple of Anytone radios, one uhf and the other vhf (1.25cm). They both work great but honestly the build quality is nowhere near the big three (Icom, Yaesu, and Kenwood)

    What would be the reaction if Hams used 11m legally using their calls.

    I think that GMRS is becoming popular because radios have become more plentiful and the FCC lowered the cost of the license. I always thought that $75 was silly.

    I used SSB exclusively from the mid 80s onward.
