RF Limited News . . .

Channel pools...Bands....I was going by what it says on the radios meter..."Band 17"... No other export has that kind of coverage...unless maybe the 2970...
Thats just the prot0-type radio...once put into full production things like that will get changed...also the ones that hit the market will have all chrome knobs...
or it was done by the same person that wrote "BATTREY" on the 2018s
I had one of those, too funny.
I have spoken to Eric in the past that is either his son or son in law so I am sure Magnum will still be in business
Just talked to Eric @ RF Limited on the phone just a few moments ago . . .
Sam Lewis has indeed passed away. He died from cancer which he had been battling the last few years. His son Eric now runs the business. Sam was a mover and shaker in the Ham/CB community for decades, as many here are aware of.
I liked Sam, and had many interesting conversations with him.
They did inform me that the CR-577 mic has been discontinued due to a lack of availability/supply of same mic elements with the same audio quality. There is a new mic on the drawing board that will be coming soon. It will be shipped with the new radio models and will also be available separately . . .
In addition, there are five new Magnum radios that are going to be released by RF Limited in the next few months. Since CB Radio Magazine/online magazine is retired, I am going to write the review when the first radio becomes available. This new radio will be capable of 10 -12m operation - for starters . . .
