    What do I have here?

    Picked this 25 Ltd classic up a couple weeks ago, already found out that the channel display has a few segments out and that the meter light is out.

    MMO mount on a steel toolbox

    Hey guys, new to the forum. I just got back in to the Cb scene after about 10 years. I always had used radios, so I decided to get a new uniden pro 520 xl. I know it's not really fancy but I didn't want to spend a ton of money just to find out that it was dead. Anyway, I'm currently using an old...
