That is a good looking rig. I hope they do a sideband version too eventually as AM?FM is of no use where i am. If they did a sidebander i'd be all over it!
I like the bar graph meter. It looks like an '80s digital dash from a car lol and also makes the frequency counter bigger and easier to read. (for us legally blind people)
I have the QT-40 and as much as I like its retro-style analog physical needle meter, this one with the embedded frequency display makes me jealous! Having to push up+down on the mike and reading the frequency 2 digit by 2 digit gets tiresome quickly on the QT-40, so I'd happily give up the analog needle for this display 😄 Thanks for the interesting and informative review.
Hard to believe how much they cram into such a small circuit board, that meter is interesting but looks painfully small, I hope you get around to doing an actual demonstration of how it transmits and receives, great video as always
Transmit sucks ,recieve decent mine keys 3 1/2 watts barely swings to 7 peak ,but I haven't done mod yet most I've seen will key 8 and almost hit 16 with mod
When I first saw that meter I was like that is odd. But after I saw what all it did it was cool. What a cool radio. BTW that has to be the smallest circuit board in a radio that size I've seen. Everything is in a chip nowadays. This aint your dads cobra 29 HAHA!
Hey John, this is Joey, Triple three, South Carolina, we spoke to each other a few times when I lived up on Long Island I sold my house and move down here. I’m in Central South Carolina on the borderline of Clemson. I had some guy in Michigan relay a message to you during the skip cycle on Tuesday. I hope you got the message I said hello .take care buddy
Mower....they sure are bringing the heat I almost got one of these that meter is the best yet plenty of everything but no SSB ohh no 😂 I'm sure they will have one coming same features and meter ssb I'm on it ..bamared256 wavin!!!
what kind of camera is it UDX-151 you can do great easy mods. to i have put fisheye lens on my sonyhandy camera also my flip camera with duck tape back in 2015-2021 and my 2009 canon rebel t3 can do different lens with videos and photos.
Waiting for conditions up in wii only have couple jamaican stations plus with quiet, i found 2 additional locals thats 2 more than i had before!! Nice radio with old style control look Isnt key beep the tone when you key up? Be nice if had browning ping!!
Thats a nice looking radio.but i wish they would have made the knobs and front bezel frame in chrome instead of black with black it makes it look cheep looking.
I think there will be a new Aries 2 PRo bet they use that meter inside it which would be cool It would shut everybody up about the frequency counter in the Aries 2 lol
This Radio Paired with a TRAM 1499 - installed and setup at 25' is Amazing, the performance is Outstanding!!
That is a good looking rig. I hope they do a sideband version too eventually as AM?FM is of no use where i am. If they did a sidebander i'd be all over it!
Lovely looking rig but I would love a sideband rig, thanks for showing us this great little rig. Alan from ENGLAND 💯👍

lol, Thanks Joe, I thought it looked familiar, late 80's Cavalier Z24 had a speedo + tack like the "Bar Graph"
@@MowerJunkie I had a black with silver accents 1991 Cavalier Z-24. Fun little car but no digital dash.
I really like that classic meter 7:31 that is very cool 70's,80',90's look 🙂.
Looks cool. The digital readout is awesome! 73s from England
Beautiful radio, I've gotta get one eventually.
John, much better than those pesky instruction sheets 🙂 Great review! Recapped my box finally so will be listening for ya in the Ozarks!
Awesome! I hope to hear you soon! 73's
thank you for the great information, 73 from canada
Thanks for watching, 73's

That's nice. Like you said that meter on the qt40 or ssb on that one.✌️✌️
much nicer setup than the one before it
Nice radio UDX-151 the meter looks cool........

Pretty sweet

Hi Joey, Welcome to South Carolina! I heard that 958, and asked him to say hello from Me. Take care 333, 73's from 151 SC.
Thanks for the review I wonder if if this is tunable?
Awesome, Radioddity is sending me one. maybe we could get together and speak CB-900 to CB-900. Great Review. My review will be on my other channel.
Look good. Look like a ctr 3900 without ssb.
I mean Cobra was the original. 73/55 from souther Germany
Have you noticed if there is a clear plastic protective coating on the faceplate that has to come off?
Pretty cool radio! Really like the stealth low profile look of it.
Be a lot cooler if it had SSB also though.
Nice radio, hope they show up with an SSB version too.
Is the s-meter close to accurate on this model?
Mower....they sure are bringing the heat I almost got one of these that meter is the best yet plenty of everything but no SSB ohh no 😂 I'm sure they will have one coming same features and meter ssb I'm on it ..bamared256 wavin!!!
Does the power have variable control with the channell knob ? Or just low high like old connex rigs ?
Just high and low power, it's not variable.
If the anytone ares 2 had that frequency counter it would be the best cb radio
what kind of camera is it UDX-151 you can do great easy mods. to i have put fisheye lens on my sonyhandy camera also my flip camera with duck tape back in 2015-2021 and my 2009 canon rebel t3 can do different lens with videos and photos.
superstar has sidebands . same sort of clone ?
what do you think
radioddity they need base station version with classic stuff with ssb.
Waiting for conditions up in wii only have couple jamaican stations plus with quiet, i found 2 additional locals thats 2 more than i had before!!
Nice radio with old style control look
Isnt key beep the tone when you key up? Be nice if had browning ping!!
the 'Key Beep" only comes out of the radios speaker, when you turn on the radio, or change channels.
Thanks for watching, 73's
they need make that radio for ssb.
👍
Thats a nice looking radio.but i wish they would have made the knobs and front bezel frame in chrome instead of black with black it makes it look cheep looking.
SSB would have been awesome, (#359 Middle Tn on the solar farm)
no talk on the FM bands, FM is only a mirror of the CB bands???
I think they copycat OTR meter from dennis. on that radio.
I think there will be a new Aries 2 PRo bet they use that meter inside it which would be cool It would shut everybody up about the frequency counter in the Aries 2 lol
But the Ares ll does have a Frequency counter! LOL
Ahahahahah, where is the SSB bands, This is a big joke without SSB, watching from Jamaica west Indies !!.
