And around Houston, these squatters are to get out once they're in. Like cockroaches....

They (Northern lights) were seen as far as the Gulf coast of Texas

Good deal. But then, they always run good deals after I've bought both...HAH on me...

That's about the only difference, except the clarifier. All of my overseas contacts (Ireland, and Southwest UK) took place in the mobile (President FCC). President did a bit of homework on the Georges, and I very happy to have them

It's one of the better new style mobile CB radios that I've owned. I meant to use in the SUV for a couple of weeks to see how it performed, but it's been over a month now, and I generally use the George II EU for one of my base station radios.

It works okay. Depending on the distance between you and your steering wheel, but someone looking at you in your car couldn't tell you were talking on a radio vs. singing along with a song on the FM radio. I doubt they did a deep dive into how many accidents were caused by drivers talking on a...

As I recall, it matched the McKinley FCC that my son has (but compare the sizes online to be sure). My EU looks just the same as the FCC. Just google Knights Telecom or "President EU" and you'll get several links from the UK. Knights ships to the US, and they're fairly fast getting it to you. I...

There are quite a few older Yaesu's around. I still use my '84 757GX daily, and leave it on 24/7 until I replace the internal battery that maintains the frequencies and memory channels. Once I clear some space on the bench I'll move it there and unbox the FT-710 that came in last week. Kenwood...

An export McKinley would fit your requirements.

I owned one. It was the excellent front to back ratio that was what I was looking for (don't remember, but it was in the range of 30-40db). At that time there were a couple guys that like to create havoc, and I don't know how much power they were running, but usually they would bleed over 3ch...

I use the new President hand mic with a noise cancelling circuit on the McKinley and George. Local reports have said it sounds louder than the stock mic, with much more clarity.

I neglected to mention that I was using a Sirio Predator 2000 with mag mount on the roof of my SUV, and the radio I was using was the President George FCC, so I was only putting out about 11w PEP (no inline amplification was used, because I don't own one).

Saturday was a great day. I drove 40 miles to watch my Granddaughter's T-Ball team play against another and we had pizza afterwards. When I left, I talked to an East coast station, switched to 16 and was lucky (sheer luck) to make contact with the U.K. and Ireland (barely enough time to swap...

Good price. I just blew my allowance on another Lafayette Telsat 25A though, so I'm broke.

I've had several vehicles run over 200K, and one over 300k without a major failure: 1994 Plymouth mini-van - 261k (6cyl) (engine) 1998 Ford Explorer - Transmission @ 278k 1982 BMW - 376k (electrical wiring) 1999 Chevy Lumina (218K) (engine related) The Explorer was a beast. I miss it and the...

I (and a friend) used to hangout at a radio shop in-between service calls, and besides check out the latest new gear in the glass counter, and used gear along one wall, we'd walk through a door on the opposite room, which had aisles and shelves of radios that were for parts, or some were ones he...

Frank Black, "Dirty Old Town"

The President FCC is a great radio with lotsa features and no modification. The McKinley is pretty good as well, but IMHO the screen on the President FCC is where it really shines when used in the vehicle. So many models like the Uniden 980SSB and 880 Am version have wonderful colors that look...

Must be the terrain + WT wattage. I had a Trc-100 5w 6ch that got contacts in the 5-7 mile range, and the TRC-99 3w 3ch that got contacts in the 2-4 mile range. There was another one (can't remember the name) that, if I recall, was a 1w 3ch, and it only got me around the neighborhood. Now I...

Either they dropped Zelle or, if it's sent to someone with the same last name, but Zelle was originally on the list. Either way, I hope they think clearly and find something in-between $20k and $500. Even $3k-$5k would be fair.
