Look at this goofy thing

Reminds me of the new Cobra 29 and the Alphamax combined into one radio.



M 8800 Mobile Radio HF Band Am FM SSB CW PA with TCXO Function | eBay

I like it.

i have been using one in the suv for a couple weeks now, it is working great, and ssb stability is awsome, i can go out it the morning 10*f and turn the radio on and its ready to go dead on frequency, been talking all over with the great europe openings, got wales , italy, france today no problem on my lunch break, it is a noisy radio if you are in town, but once you get on the hwy its very quiet. i have a band set up with 5khz channels, i havent had to even touch the clarifier!!

the ssb temp freq stability has me sold on it for the mobile use!

 

[Lil'Yeshua]

I guess so with the TCXO

Need to read the Export subsection more often.

 

[TonyV225]

I know these have been talked about I just never seen one until I seen this Ebay ad today.

 

[Mudfoot]

It looks like it's looking back at you. Those windows are kinda strange. I do like the looks of the rig. They just need to improve the board some.

Still waiting to see what the AT-6666 is all about.

Very symmetrical front. I like it.

A guy on another forum in Australia bought one and tore it completely down and did a few stability mods to it and he likes it very well. he spent about 1 week just going completely through it and changed a few items and he likes it very well. he does all his radios this way when he 1st gets them.

 

[The Mad Scientist]

He really gets into it...

I would rather have a well aligned 29xx series instead of the current Anytone or CRE offerings. The Maxlog suffers from the same issues as the above mentioned rigs.

 

[The Mad Scientist]

I agree.

 

[Mudfoot]

Don't get me wrong, but I did like my Anytone and CRE. They just suffer from processor or mixer noise that is a wee bit excessive. Both of my radios were stock. Maybe if they had a proper alignment, they may be a little quieter.

Anyways, I anxiously awaiting some first hand accounts of the AT-6666.
