      Completely agree! Absolute best customer service, and not out for magic numbers, I have bought several radios here from Matt and they have been the best I have owned. The honesty is priceless from Matt!

    Pros, cons and comments from the man who knows and cares.
    Conducting business the right way is a heartfelt mindset. Cutting corners, in any endevour, will not ensure a win, but like in a race, may end in a crash. We are here for you, Matt, because you are always here for us. 👊👊

    Hey Matt good morning love the N series radios from Ranger and I am well pleased with the one I purchased from you but I do have a question as to why sometimes it is hard to turn the radio on sometimes is there a issue with the switch maybe as far as anything else no complaints at all

    4:50 what’s that red wire jumped across that looks like it was added? Also, can this radio do a 5kc slide? For a 10 meter radio I’d like to talk on 28.420.

    It may not be worth buying a CB radio, only to hear two guys yelling “ world wide , world wide!!!”

      So everyone should just get what you like? 🤣 A cell phone has really great technology maybe just talk on that? You won't have to worry about touching a clarifier that way, I know a clarifier is a lot of work for some people.

      Wait what?...are we needing to have these new radios repaired no matter where we ordered them from?

    • @stonefacedgrasshopper2200
      @stonefacedgrasshopper2200 7 месяцев назад +3

      I respectfully disagree. Newer technology, with dubious and inferior parts, will never trump the old school radios. The radios coming out of China are unrepairable and disposable. The manufacturers are unreachable and if you do get ahold of them, are unwilling to stand behind even their basic warrenties. I have 40 plus year old radios that have been recapped, realigned and will be on the air for the next 40 years. That will never happen with todays line of mass produced, technalogicially appealing, junk. The grass, I find, is not greener on that side of the fence. The best you can hope for in 40 years, with these new radios, is a rusty wheel chock.
