    Gotta say, there's just something about the shiny chrome and big dials and switches of old tech that's just kinda awesome.

    Nice setup on an iconic radio, Matt. I find that I have conversations with myself all the time. No camera,
    microphone on or off. Of course, being polite, I often answer myself too. 😁 I left a comment on your last members only posting. It was a day or two after your posting. Just beginning to feel better now. 73 😑🦗

    In my opinion the 2K is still one of the best looking radio's every made. Mine is still seeing daily use. Enjoyed the video.

    Nice radio. I have one that has been just sitting on the shelf for 30 plus years.

    I know it's not very flexible but I'd like to see one bench that a tech. has that uses RG/8U coax... It's a bit harder to work with but the line loss is worth the use of the fatter coax... Especially from Radio to Antenna over 50'.... Look at the specs. on line loss between RG/8U and regular thinner coax... I don't care about quality in the coaxs if you get really good quality RG/8U you'll benefit in the end..

    Always looking good ! I have one I need to dig out eventually and see what surprises it has. Good work Matt !

      Definitely dig it out, I would watch that video for sure! I'm sure it would be entertaining. Then get ready for the emails to flood in from everyone wanting to send in their 2k's 😳👍👊

    Just worked 2WR730 on the cobra 2000gtl..sounding great in Glasgow Scotland. De KP192.
    I had the only one in Scotland back in 93 .. I was 16 and sold it ... biggest regret ever. 😢

    🎯Nice, have you ever done any work on its little brother 142 GTL ?

  • @franciscolopez3229
    @franciscolopez3229 2 года назад

    One of the best CB radio ever made, nice. Anyway sir, just a hypothetical question. If an HR2510 can be internally tuned down the deadkey to almost nothing, is it possible for me to use an rm italy kl300p with it? And if so, as to how high would I set it? Sure appreciate it sir.

    I’ve got a really nice 142gtl that I keep in original box an get out when I want to run it. Last time I think receive was not working.

    I've never really been a cobra fan.. I think their modile radios are better than their base designs.. Still never was a big fan of all the hype..
