ranger rci 2960jp

A local guy had one back in the day. I bought it used and messed with it and then sold it. I thought it was a 6 band radio as well but it's been a long time. It's a very rare radio for sure maybe only 200 er so ever made.
 
They had a 6 position band switch with hi/lo.
There were not a lot of these around, I remember when EEI sold them and that was years ago.
There were other radios that came out with that PA the 6900f150, RCI 2970 and others.

I assume that the PA in my 6300F150 is also the same. Hopefully I can retrofit this rig with a 6300F150 heatsink, as this one is about 1/2" deeper and doesn't fit well in my mobile mount. Barkett has them listed and I've asked them to verify stock and fitment.

Wow that goes way back. Express Electronics (EEI) and their famous Turbo Tune.
 
If your talking about the two Toshiba 2290 finals you probably don't want to know. Toshiba has stopped making them and the few that are left are very expensive. Here is a link for just the finals, you will have to pay a tech for the install and shipping.

And if you find them on e-bay or something really cheap you can bet they are fake one's from china. Good luck.
This is very strange. I have the 2960JP. Its stock as far as I know and ive owned it well over 20 years. Mine has Toshiba 2879s in it and will 250 on AM and 350 ton400 on SSB. It doesnt look moded so maybe they had 2 versions or maybe someone converted it? I know 1 thing. Its all my 30 amp power supply can do to talk on ssb. Lights gondim in it. I need to upgrade the power sorse. Good day. 2LV606/WARRIOR Mt Washington Ky
