    President Lincoln 2 mic options??

    I have used a Ranger SR mic. $25 and a $9 adapter. Works good. It's also "fine tuned approved"

    FINE TUNE CB SHOP FOR REAL?

    I was being sarcastic. I know rabbiporkchop from a trucking fourm, he's a good guy. Noted the nudge nudge wink wink? I would get a 10m radio from sherman but he's hard to get ahold of and his time frame isn't worth it for me.

    FINE TUNE CB SHOP FOR REAL?

    All I'm saying, until futhfur proof (not just what is typed out), I TRULY believe "rabbiporkchop" is infact "fine tune" aka "Mark Sherman". That's just MY observations. Don't worry "rabbiporkchop", I was accused of being Mike Houston when in fact I'm just an lonely ambulance driver with a...

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    But if your not willing to explain clearly and zoom in to the settings, then I feel your shady or hiding something. "Pay attention" hell I did pay attention but your only showing us half the formula to a complex math problem. Good example is his coax lenght videos. But not to be bashing on...

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    One guy bragged on YouTube that he has over $20k tide up into his bench. I was impressed, went to his place, and the roof was literally leaking. It was a hole in the wall. Had him "fix" my radio. He "got all the power onto the right channel" and it looked good on the scope, and his analyzer...

    I also like the classic looks of the Cobra.

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    Size is a huge concern. Most power in a small area. But I hardly ever used anything other than volume and channel. The benefit of the Ronald would be a "high power radio" and compact size. A few guys in the Jeep club run them and over the Cobra 19 they love them. They can now talk to the group...

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    I found a pretty clean Cobra 29 locally. Lady is cleaning out her passed husband's truck. So I picked it up for a decent price. It's a 2011 model. No idea yet what kind of hackery has been done to it. But I agree, $170 for a C25 is crazy. I don't wanna bash techs, especially the local who...

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    By no adjustments I mean no internal adjustments for a golden screwdriver. It has variable power from 1 watt to 13 watts from the factory. The amp will be most likely a 2 pill. That's what I use in my home as the driver for my base station. Maybe a 1x4. Depends on how much I wanna piss off my...

    President Ronald vs Cobra 25

    I'm debating on a President Ronald or Cobra 25 with mosfet final. The tech says he can get both to be clean and spectrualy pure. The Cobra 25 will have about 30 pep and the Ronald will have about 45 pep. The Ronald has alot more features. But I'm wondering what would be a good choice to put...

    Who's the best?

    I'm not arguing that, but when the company says we're on channel 26, they expect everyone else to be on the same band/frequency/channel, it's part of their contract to have certain equipment and CB radio is one of them, and as a pilot car you can be a few miles ahead of the loads at times. I'm...

    Who's the best?

    Again, try to get an entire industry to switch over. I tried to get the local 4x4 club to switch over to 2m and using the local repeaters. Nope. Won't happen. Same with the CB/trucking.

    Who's the best?

    Or since I'm a ham operator, pretty much any other mode/band. But try to get the rest of the trucking community onboard with that........

    Who's the best?

    I have never seen anyone talk into a dummy load. And sometimes your running with a pack of trucks that will be spread out over a few miles. Between all the idiots on 11m and all the extra noise, sometimes you need some extra watts. I use to run a Galaxy 98vhp but those stupid mosfets eat each...

    Who's the best?

    I appreciate it. The President radio has a variable deadkey/power that goes down to 1.5 watts.

    Who's the best?

    I already have a nice base station setup. I need 11m in my car for my side job, which is oversized escorting. This Cobra 19 isn't cutting it.

    Honestly without a camera, I would be hesitant to buy anything. Post a few pics, plenty of people with camera phones these days. I would be interested in the 955 if it's legit

    Who's the best?

    AM only for this rig. It will be mobile, running at 14.0v. no volting no crazy voodoo magic. The radio will be a President Ronald, all stock, pushing ~50 pep, but it does have a variable power on it. I don't need more than 250 of true watts. That's running at 14.0 volts with 2 toshibas or HG...
