@@knoxieman cheers👍

I'd only just got the radio lol

2 miles

Nice radio i have the midland alan 42 ds and the albrecht ae 2990 afs which has am fm and.ssb it cost £250 ive not used either yet my health is poor but im having a crack this week The albrecht is only 4 watts sideband but well see how it goes ill try both on telescopic and the cracking t2lt thunderbolt ssd58plus Ive heard good reports on the albrecht so well see

Yes all CB handhelds are expensive imo, bit the difference in quality and what you get between this and the others below it for a bit extra is considerable, go to a vendor who stocks both and you will see what I mean.

@@knoxieman the randy looks quality build.it came out at begining of this year i got mine last year but i think the randy probably better than the midland 42 ds but as for better.than the albrecht on cb i dont know the albrecht has ssb and a quick mod can b used on amateur Im just learning again since 80.s so its a big learning curve I dont get out a lot cos of my health i dont smoke or drink so ive a few quid put to one side for when i do foundation but im going to do both cb and ham My daughter bought mw ss9900 which is a cracking rig but my.pal said the 6900 is easier to learn on whats your view on that getting back to the randy it looks quality made radio cheerrs

£189 @ knights its cheaper than i paid for my albrecht £250 but albrecht has am fm ssb and amateur still only 4 watts but ive had good reports on it you can run it through your home base etc Id say from what ive seen none of these radios are much good on rubber duck aerials which are better used stirring your tea Knoxie made a point like with a lot of hand helds like my midland 42ds for another £59 i could have got the randy but it didnt come out till start of this year Also you cut your coat according to your cloth I dont smoke or drink cos of my meds i had to give up my hobbies metal detecting and watching blackburn rovers cos of my health To b honest my health has improved since i stopped watching rovers lol So cash i spent on those hobbies ive got for radio Footy id spend £50 every 2 weeks not cheap plus mental stress of watching black burn Point is £189 is a lot of cash but like knoxie says to design produce and market a radio aint cheap I just need to get a bit better im giving both radios a go this week first time since i got them last yr thats way it is my health is that poor but i will get there Do you have a handheld Can get bargains on ebay but better if you can get knew take care

That's the deal breaker for me for that money I'd get the Albrecht with ssb

Ich habe das Video gesehen, was für ein Abenteuer und ein wunderschönes Video

With the 2990 Don't get large display, external antenna power adapter, 2 yr warranty, lipo battery, not interested in SSB or 400 channels, the Randy is a great jack of all trades, very well made and still has a years warranty left and works great for me that's why I bought it. 👍

Pretty good will be doing some tests soon

The European version is AM+FM
