Hi have just bought this radio what's the best way to power the radio as I don't drive will I need to put an inline fuse on the power cable

Hi Anthony, yes it's always best to fit a fuse, if you twist off the end of the power plug you should find a fuse inside.

What was the point of this video? What is better/different about the Lincoln 2 plus? Most of these radios are cheaply made by the same Chinese manufacturer and have similar faults and quality control problems. They all sound poor especially on receive compared to a radio from years ago.

This is actually the same radio as the TEAM FX-CB. I Have always done very well with TEAM equipment and am seriously considering installing this in an Emcomm Go-BOX. This extension gives the radio 10, 11 and 12m capabilitie so that would be interesting for a licensed amateur. Only thing I don't like so far is the fact it doesn't show frequency but just channel number and it not doing SSB is a big downside. That last bit might actually be a deal-breaker for me. But if you're not an Amateur, and you just need a good CB, this might do very very well... Especially for the size and price

@drawesome777
@drawesome777 4 года назад
The radio functions/options, most of them turn on/off holding/pressing a button, while switching on the radio, I did a few test video's, but when I cycled through the 7 back ground colours, on the camcorder, the colours were very bright, which interfered with the black numbers/letters on the radio face of the viewing screen, I have not found an option on the radio itself to turn down the screen brightness. There is an option on the radio, to have the NB & Compander on together, or one, or the other. There wasn't anyone on the radio, when I was going through the channels, to test the NB & compander, but at a guess I'm thinking it will alter the RF Gain on the radio. The OPEK HCS-100, the antenna sections are heavy than the Hymalaya WB sections, so the three sections screwed together, it will be a two man job getting it into the air.

Hi, yes there are a few on 37am mainly just listening out for the regulars, a lot on 27.555 USB when the skip comes out, no one seems to use LSB here, I have heard a few people mobile in Seaton Crew. There are a lot more people on because of lock down, people sell up, then a few months later they buy a radio to see who is still on. lol
