What is a Chipswitched tuned up Uniden 2830 with factory bracket, manual, power cord,
- Thread starter hacksaw
- Start date
Here is a picture of the Whole President family.
Very few of the 2830`s made there way into this country, the radio is the same as a Lincoln except it is badged as a Uniden Radio and the other models are all President.
It is still the same 1980 Uniden Board in the radio.
You will find most of them across the pond in the UK.
The ChipSwitch is the best thing you can do for the HR series of radios.
If the radio and ChipSwitch are functioning properly it is a good setup.
The only thing to remember is that the radio now is getting long in the tooth.
They do have a few known problems, but most of them are documented well and are relatively easy fixes if you can work on them and have a little test equipment.
I have been running this chassis of radio on and off since the 80`s, in fact I have a President Lincoln in my truck right now.
It has A Panther Electronics 10 Meter SSB Kit in it, upgraded NB Diodes, AM detector diodes, and a Channel Guard filter in it.
I also have a HR2510 that has a ChipSwitch and a HR2600 that is in stock configuration for working 10 meter FM repeaters.

If I am correct a chipwich is two chocolate chip cookies with ice cream in between!
Nice...now back to the OP
. How much would this be worth to a collector needing this piece? Now I'm off to the store for ice cream dang you!!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
If it worked and is in good cosmetic condition, I'd go no higher than $75. The microphone doesn't excite me.
