I did share this over in our USA/UK FB group. The first one sparked some interest and chat over across the pond. They are the FM folks and it is evident they use FM for around the close areas for the most part. Nothing there to get there they don't already have. The lack of USB/LSB/Clarifier function is the biggest turn-off. Also, the lack of power and control was next. Other than that they said for the most part a nice starter radio etc. I have to agree pretty much with my English cousins. LOL. I was just talking with a few of the Utube channels operators and my partner in the one group and was explaining a lot of massive damage in the UK and adjacent areas. He is in the Nottingham area and others all over from south England to the north of Scotland and many living coastal. Lots of problems to include destroyed antennas etc. So if you are not hearing across the pond this is one reason. but they are due to get another within days if not sooner. Keeping my cousins in my prayers and thoughts. Thanks again and if any do FB come say hello at 11 meters Skip chasers. It's a private group and still small but we share and have fun back and forth across the puddle You all are invited. 73s New York 202 USA Operator Drew.

Great review 390! Some of these President models have a secret menu to make minor tweaks (nothing crazy) . Enjoyed that and appreciate the time and passion for the hobby. I am leaving SLC Thurs morning. Wish I would have had time to schedule a quick meet and greet. Take care 💗 your channel!

I just installed mine. For now I'll use ch 30 and 31 for FM. Hopefully we will have channels dedicated for FM. That'll make it fun instead of a mess.

Will this work in existing AM antenna's?
Do we know what frequencies the FM will use?

i have been hopping on fm a bit lately, I hit up that 26.805, really has lit up since the last time I tried it. talked to a feller in ga, sounded like a phone call

We spent years in UK no CB radios, no walkie talkies, now we have two sets of 40 channels, one FM only band one am/FM/ssb band (US). We use FM and ssb, no one users am which we have had since 2016.

Will this drive a 2pill driver into a 20pill and do FM SuperBowl? Nice demo...

Biggest drawback is no SSB but dont sell FM short, FM can do skip. Ask our CBers across the pond. Consesus on my Channel so far has been to have Channel 30 for FM and that's where youll find me 390 if we get lucky for some skip. 640 AM The Mix. Good review 👍
