I found a Realistic TRC-453 in my dads garage, with side band. Is this a good radio? Who made them. It sounds good for sitting in a garage for 5 years. Is there any mods or is it a junk radio. Kick it back.. 10-4!!!

TRC-453
If I recall correctly, it was made by Uniden and is basically a PC-122 with a Realistic name on it.

Best radio I have bought,definitely best value for money as it cost me $30usd so had it peaked and tuned and now swings to 28watts pep. So pleased with the performance had a tech in Australia put 3 extra 40 channel bands and a 5 khz slide so have continuous coverage from 26.325 to 27.860 in 5khz steps. Throw the stock mic away, I use an Astatic D104m6b and it really sounds good.
Its a pity they use the 5pin din plug for the mic but I can live with that.

I can also confirm that inside it is identical to the Uniden PC122. Stock mic and speaker are definitely worth replacing. Good mobile rig as it is very small and easy to fit in most cars.
