> 3 dayThere is a surprising amount of control for this radio. The receive is extremely sensitive and the high cut filter works really well. For mobile use, the antenna noise limiter and noise blanker are really, really, good. However, I only used it mobile once. It is now a home unit that is powered with a computer power supply. 30 watts AM peak, 56 watts ssb, and just under 40 watts FM are the power measurements into a dummy load. I am not authorised for AM, FM, LSB use on 10 meters because of my lowly license. The RF gain control helps tremendously during noise atmospheric condition days. It is not merely a secondary volume. The roger beep time comes in really handy for 10 meter USB. I set it to 50 millisecond duration and I no longer have to end sentences with, over, which I hate doing with a passion. With such a short beep set, it does not annoy anybody and It still does the job of removing the, over, from the end of sentences. 12 meters is only receive for me. My lowly license does not cover 12 meters. CW is smooth with no harsh buzzing or hissing, like some CB/amateur radio combinations are. Speaking of CB, there is supposed to be a conversion for CB that can be done to this radio. It may have something to do with the data port, I am not sure. I already have a CB. I highly recommend this radio for anybody. You can be a complete novice, like me, or hold the highest license your nation offers, it is the radio for everyone. Even if you do not have a license, it is an excellent receiver for 10 and 12 meters. From what I have heard, with a small conversion, it will even receive 11 meter CB, (probably not transmit). Some business bands can also be picked up, and the end of portion shortwave. It is not a full HF transceiver, but what a radio for £200!

> 3 dayBig disappointment! I got on the air with a neighbor and the audio was badly distorted RX and TX. We found out that if I put a 100 HZ offset over his frequency we could talk without the distortion. Even after adding the 100 Hertz, the reception quality was very poor for a $250.00 radio.

Greater than one weekExcellent radio! Ive had this about a month now and am still finding impressive features, some of which arent in the manual. I did the extra channel mod to include 11m, super easy and doesnt eliminate 10m or 12m, it just adds another band to the band menu. Tuning now runs from 24.710 to 30.110 MHz and can be tuned in as small as .1 KHz increments by using the push button on the tuning dial to move the cursor under the readout to the desired space and then turn the dial.(this is not in the manual). The TX sound is incredibly clear. People think the mic is cheap because its lightweight, DO NOT BE FOOLED! This is an electrete condenser mic and the dual filter is tuned to this specific mic. Dont change mics! It is different from any other mic out there and other mics wont work correctly with the tuned circuit in the radio. If you really have to have a heavy mic just hot glue some fishing weights to this one, thats what the other mics have anyway. The clarifier is unlocked from the factory, no need to mod it. In fact, its better than unlocked, its a menu item with 4 options, off, rx only, tx only, or both rx and tx. Ive never seen this ability on any radio, even on modded radios. SWR is displayed every time you key up. The freq counter switches to an SWR counter when you key up. It has high SWR protection that it also a menu item that you can turn on or off and set the step down level. This things got it all! Well, almost all. The only two things I dont like, the bottom firing speaker. Just get rid of it. Is just taking up space in the cabinet. The only place it works is in an overhead mounting anyway. I pulled mine out, maybe it will help with cooling to have the extra airflow through the open holes. Get a good external. No biggie. The biggie? No direct entry keypad anywhere. A keypad on the mic and this thing would be perfect.

New Lincoln has the SMT Technology. looking at the circuit board talk about a work of ART!.....
