Scary Snake Radio "Setting Up" President Lincoln II V3

I would ask the question why anyone would buy a brand new radio that was that inferior that it takes all that part swapping and resoldering before being able to use it?

My guess all those mods and adjustments just added another $200 to the overall cost of that radio. Wow!
And $600.00 to Repair!
 
poor snake radio is charging a lot to repair a radio now days. 600.00 to do all his tricks to a 148 or similar radio. his prices have gotten very high. ever so often I will see a radio for sale on ebay and they will have a very high price on it and they claim Snake radio had gone through it as why the price would be so expensive.

When it comes to Snake, just do a youtube search for "Tech Practices:"Douche It Down!" This should be the only video you EVER need to watch of this so called Tech. I feel so bad for the poor customers that get radios done by this, so called CB radio technician. ALSO for a good laugh. Search youtube "Snake oil Customs RAGE against the rodger beep" Enjoy I sure did lol
I have onr

I have one, its a killer rig, put up or shut up you wannbe mud duck squeezeer!
 



Why would anyone send him a new radio and want him to have a poke around inside? I do not have a problem with the guy working on CB's but you have to know your limits. I can not see him doing any wonderful magic to this or even knowing the subtle tuning issues on audio that this radio can benefit from. Most of this radio is surface mount. I have no seen a SMD rework station onhis bench. In fact I have never seen him use flux on anything on his bench either???? Strange right?

Got news for you, I have one and its a killer, thats because I bought one and not trolled him like a faceless clown,did a few mods and its great,Get a life wannabe troll!
 
We've seen the vid.

And all the work put into it...which raises more questions about the use of the word "troll"...

Feel more sorry for the "Chris" - he's getting a radio that guy learned from - so hope it's put together right.

Consider yourself lucky to have one that works.

Now, about your efforts ...it's... so... "3:13" ago...

You're kinda' late to the party...we've already built an assembly manual around the vid...

And more re-assembly work from a radio that worked out of the box but why go thru all that trouble?

So we were on top of this before you arrived.

Hope you didn't get charged too much...

But this next part gets even more interesting...

Before they did the work...
