    Magnum 1012 Anywhere?

    Well that I can certainly agree with you on. They are overpriced for what they are. I also don't believe these radios are worth the kinds of money the manufacturer or vendors are demanding. This is why I've been holding back on buying one. I would love for some manufacturer to come along and...

    Magnum 1012 Anywhere?

    Classify them as whatever you wish...a toy, novelty item etc.. Doesn't change that fact that they do work and I still want one. I notice that many people seem to like to mock the idea of an HF handheld...but the Yaesu FT-817 is essentially that...just in a different form factor and it gets all...

    Midland 75-822 mod

    As of this date, Bell's CB still sell the Midland 75-822 (not 75-820) with the option of having it 'tuned' along with with the 120 channel modification.

    Magnum 1012 Anywhere?

    I'll believe it when I see them. I hope you are right. There are AE2990s available on eBay from UK and German vendors. However... There is NO export version and they are extremely underpowered: Germany: 80 channel FM (4 W); 40 channel AM 1 W and SSB 4 W EU: 40 channel AM 1 W; 40 channel...

    Magnum 1012 Anywhere?

    No. They are included in the multitude of vendors online that have them listed, but are consistantly 'Out of Stock' or 'Sold Out'. Anyone who spent any short amount of time 'thinking' about getting one, (like me) completely missed the boat. They were on the market like a flash in the pan very...
