Just about everything and anything. It gets here faster than most other places could, however, if I was looking at a specific radio and it was $10 less than other places on the web (with a brick'n mortar store), I'd ignore the $10 and buy it from one of the smaller shops.

The 6 wire (CS-1) was mostly for Johnson radios and a couple others. Is this the only mic you own? If you have one wired for a Uniden/Cobra or Midland (all 4 pin mics), try 'em - you might get lucky.

I had a 751a transceiver and it was great! Excellent receiver and great audio. It even sounded decent on AM (not great, but decent), but it really shined on sideband xmit audio.

Looks good!!

Yep, me too

I read that article yesterday. Hopefully they're wrong

Would you know if the 40ch. version of this have a double-side pcb as well?

He has good quality caps (I've bought at least a half dozen kits from him)

Great site! It's my go-to spot for mods

I know I submitted one radio (SBE SIDEBANDER III) many posts ago, but here's another one - An MRC-458 portable, battery powered AM/SSB

That's weird that yours does that. I've had one for the last 10 years or so and Dynamic stock mics sound very good (and usually loud). The only mic I've put on it that doesn't have a lot of audio through the tester is the Astatic 636L.

It seemed to work decent on a recent YouTube video I saw, so I ordered one from Walcott. It ought to arrive by Friday and I'll give it a go on my McKinley.

The Lincoln II+ is a very good radio as well. I wouldn't rank it as my favorite, but it's certainly in the Top 10 of mobile radios I own. You won't be disappointed.

McKinley. My sons love the ones I got 'em for Xmas a few years back.

In the late 60's/early 70's most of the radios I either owned or happened to listen to, while at a friends shack (and from right out of the box) noted, as did we all, that the background hiss/noise sounded different between LSB and USB. After spending a good amount of time on ch.16 we preferred...

I've done some tests between the Sirio 4000, 5000, and President Texas (all were mag mt.) using a Cobra 138XLR and a President Lincoln II+ and the "3 Amigos" were close enough when transmitting/receiving to call 'em "even", other than the 2 different radios (138xlr for CB and the Lincoln II+ for...

I've heard 'em as "Country Codes", but I was stumped about the initial question until you put the link up (Thanks, was leaning towards him meaning area code until you and a 2nd cup of coffee made sense of it all) ;)
