Hi Guys, curious to see what other users of the 5555n2 or qt60 radio would change or want thats missing. I think most of us agree they are very good as designed but what would you do differently with it ? Anything option related ? - for me i wish the radio had an option in the menu to change the...

Hoping to find external speaker for a uniden madison 40ch am/ssb. Thx!

Hi guys. I hope i am not beating a dead horse here with this and realize in the grand scheme of things that the last digit on the freq display being off a tad is no deal breaker. This base is new non modifed and after warmed up the last digit sits at 1. I realize i can correct this using...

Hi, is there a low pass filter made that keeps transmissions at 27/28 mhz or is something like that not possible? I think most i have seen are wide keeping things below 30mhz. Reason i ask is that i have watched a few vids by Scotts where he is using low pass filters when using rm italy or...

Hi guys, I was recently given a realistic trc-448 am/ssb mobile radio. It seems to be working fine overall other then the channel readout. Missing segments here and there. I figured i would ask the question here before poking around as maybe someone out there is familiar with this model any...

Just wondering, if keeping just one of the two radios, is one any better then the other in any way ? Same main board i believe 14b. I am thinking its a crapshoot but thought i would ask your opinions :) Thx guys!

Hi guys, i plan on using 6666 as a base radio with a power supply sometimes and wondering if anyone has had any luck with a particular desk mic? I realize the at6666 uses a Electret mic supplied with the radio as a stock mic. Is there such a thing in a desk mic configuration available ? Holding...

Hi guys, i have a 2980 that i would like to run off of a 13.8vdc external power supply when needed. Any suggestions on connection to main board and if i am able to use the radios power button. I assume i would need to install a ac/dc switch like seen on all base radios meant to be able to run...
