Last week I caught a RCI-2950 on Ebay for $125 shipped buy it now. I decided to go with that in the mobile since I've always been happy with the 2950 I already own.
It arrived today, and I decided to hook it up just to do a quick power test before I take it out to the shop and put it on the bench. I noticed early off that the radio has a strange frequency coverage.
This particular 2950 is tuning all the way down to 24.065MHz... If this was a 2950dx I'd expect somewhere around that range, but it's the old style 2950 with the orange display.
The serial number on this on is quite a bit lower than the one I already had. The Ebay 2950 is 101xxx and the 2950 I've owned for years is 409xxx
Anyone ever heard of a 2950 covering that big of a frequency range? Almost 24MHz to 32MHz?!?
New one on me, but if this pans out I'll be happy since I'll now be able to work 12m mobile as well.
