i run a telex/turner rk56 on my cobra 29gtl in my pickup with fine reports,,, on my first generation president washington i run a turner super sidekick,,,, and on my galaxy 2527dx i run a ugly ugly turner +3b that i had got in the bottom of a box of trade stuff, it was in pieces and missing some wiring and the relays was loose and apparently been apart at one time,,but with some parts from junk box i got it going perfect,, but paint it up? nope i like its worn off black paint and bare metal look,, it gives it character,,,
