Ranger 2970N2 Expandable/ NOT expandable?

[Red Ranger]

I've heard that SOME Ranger 2970's CANNOT BE EXPANDED TO THE CB BAND! That they remove those pins that the special chip dongle plugs into.

I've heard the ones sold at Ham dealers are different than the Export ones, can someone straighten me out, because I don't want one if it can't be expanded!

They all can be converted. The ones that the ham outlets get, are not as easy to convert, soldering required. The ones that CB dealers get, come with the "plug in module".

They use to come with either a "blue" dot or "yellow" dot on the back of the radio - indicating which ones they were.
