President Lincoln II Plus Ham Radio, Rotary Switch, Up/Down Channel Selector, VFO Mode, RF Power, S-meter, Multi-functions LCD Display, 6 Memories, Vox Function, Beep Function, AM/FM/LSB/USB/CW Modes

Not good for GMRS. If you do a factory reset, you will lose CB capability. Im selling mine.

Like its 10-12m compadible . Had everything including repeater splits -100 , has pl tones listed as 1-38 in the menu . The Clarifier adjusts to turn rx & tx freq at same time to tune in SSB signals but you set it for tx rx clarification one you shut radio off its back to locked tx clarifier You have go back into menu adjust again. This couldve been designed better.

Lincolns just aint what they used to be.

All good.

A glich in order but all is well. Seller is good to deal with. I would buy again .

This little rig from President works fairly well. It has about any feature youd want, and a few (like echo) you might not use. Besides the small footprint, a huge selling point (to me) is the bright display. Its easy to read in even the brightest sunlight (something that cant be said for other transceivers like the 980SSB). I think its because its a light background with dark numbers vs. the 980ssb which is the reverse (light on dark) Ive owned the previous version of this radio (Lincoln II) and havent noticed any big difference between the two, with the exception of the II+ being 12-10 meters and the II only 10m. Power output (35w PEP) is good, and the typical controls youd come to expect (Clarifier, Mic gain, NB, etc.) are all there. If there is someone you dont like to use (Im not a big fan of echo or Roger beeps) - dont use them (at least theyre there). Variable RF power control from the front panel is nice, and even the ASC Squelch works pretty decent. While I could gone on about every feature ad nausem Id like to mention the Clarifier. If you talk SSB youre familiar with how a Clarifier control should work. USA CBs with sideband only have the ability to vary the receive frequency. In the olden days CBs like a 148 or Uniden XL were easy to modify the circuitry in order to allow your frequency to track on both transmit and receive. Today its almost impossible to do that with a 980ssb or McKinley. Default setting is Clarifier OFF. From there you can go into the menu and set it to adjust receive only, transmit only, or receive and transmit. It can be done easily because this isnt a CB radio. So far, my experience with this feature is just okay. Sometimes I set it to tx/rx and power down the radio after using it, the menu setting reverts to OFF the next time I turn it ON ----> but not every time (weird). I have one II+ that holds it and another that doesnt. This isnt a deal breaker, its just annoying. What I do find a little annoying is how the volume control works. With a typical radio when you power it ON and slowly turn the volume control the speaker audio increases smoothly, but this doesnt do that. The speaker audio goes from silence to something I would call 2 skipping the lowest setting. As you turn the volume UP there is noticeable distance you have to adjust it to be able to hear anything. This isnt a big deal in the car, but at home its been irritating because late at night I like a low volume as to not bother anyone else in the house, and I cant get that with a II+ so I dont use it in the house much any longer, only mobile. Ive have two of these (bought from different vendors) and both do the same thing so Im pretty sure its not a defective radio Parsee. As for the origin of manufacture, its Vietnam. These days you have to pick your poison and Ill pick Vietnam over China any day. Presidents attention to a quality build is ever-present and I believe their warranties are the best in the business. These almost always sell for around $249, but last year they were reduced by $20 around Black Friday / Cyber Monday.

Very nice 10m radio. Audio quality on TX is superior, does not drift frequency. Rx is very sensitive. President Electronics if you read this please make an hf radio 160m-6m as simple as this one. The only reason i gave this 4 stars is because there is zero support when it comes to the usb port, driver install and programming with computer. This is one of few times in my life where i just cant figure it out.

Love this radio! Looks great and out performs the rest!!

Nice radio, lots of features. Audio section has a lot of idle noise.

Have been using it for a bit now and it has been great so far. It has 8 memories (tow emergency + six regular), I wish it had a bit more and perhaps a bit more power, but I love its clarity and functions. In this low propagation days I have been able to make contacts to several thousands of kilometers away and received sstv images. I have seen any radio with this features and quality at this price.
