I always like to learn more. Thanks. I use a Kenwood Set 450s, but many People ask me for modifications President radio's. This whas not easy i think. Again superthanks
I have a President Taylor and there is a secret menu to increase or decrease the power. I emailed the factory, but they gave me the standard "4watt and could not be modified" answer. Now how much of an increase I have, I am not sure, may only be a few watts, but the I would think The President Richard would have a secret firmware menu like the Anytone, to change it from a 10 to 11 meter. Thanks for the video.
I am interested in the new President Washington which is a 10 and 12 meter radio but i can not seem to find any modification to make it a CB radio! I need a modification of the President Washington 11 meter mod Thank you!
The president richard I bought came with a resistor soldered between those two points.. should I just leave it, or remove it, and solder in a piece of wire? I'm hoping that doesn't affect wattage. Sorry for the dumb question.
Hi Brett, no dumb questions at all. Did you buy the radio new? Do you get cb channels? A resistor between these 2 points is often installed by the factory to make the conversion easier for the user, they know what we do to make the 11 meter work. These radios often change revisions, I made this video with a very early prototype. I have heard the board has changed several times since. On their other models, removing the resistor is often all that is needed
@Flip2Flower1 thank you for the quick reply! It's a new radio. The place I ordered it from had an option to tune, and align the radio so it will work on cb channels. I'll find out in the morning if it works properly.
My radio lost/ doesn’t have the PD option in the menu. Cut it off and back on and it’s just not there. I have found it before and entered the 1234 but now I can’t find it
I have been waiting on your long term review of this. How did it work out? After you put in the PD 1234 does it keep it in the memory after you power off? Are you able to switch back and forth between 10 & 11 meter
Hi Bill. Yes, this radio has been rocksolid. I have never had to touch it again since doing the modification. There is really no flipping back-and-forth between 10 and 11 per say, when you do the modification, it just adds an additional CB band on the dial. You don’t really have to flip anything if you know what I’m trying to say. You just continue turning the band knob to the band that you want up to and including 11 I hope I did not confuse you, it’s kind of hard to describe, but this is all very simple on the radio. It is as is 11 was already there for you.
