Nice to see another Belcom still about, i have a none "L" model,no LSB but not too fussed about that.

Got it in a job lot i bought,sold the other rigs & this one stands me at nowt now 8)

This one has been expanded & has had a 3 position band switch fitted also the send/receive switch selects x2 ranges 24/25/26 Mhz & 27/28/29 Mhz,so coverage is 24-30Mhz.

Love the feel of the VFO encoder on these rigs too,classic rigs well worth keeping :thumbup:

Good stuff, just browsing on Ebay & the below turned up...


https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Belcom-LS-10 ... SwP2BcpKDv

might be worth while obtaining that as information on these Belcom's seems pretty scarce.

Hi pal, nah no need for it,although it is similar to my none "L" model there is no guarantee that the schematics are exactly the same,so no point me bidding on it really,so fire away pal,i just thought it may come in useful for you while fixing the one you have there :thumbup: .

Regards,Shaun :)

Well the boxed Harrier CBX that i paid £20 including p&p arrived this morning....

All working perfect as it should & in near new condition,everything there in the box but missing its original mounting bracket as i suspected it would be,why people leave these in cars etc when they remove the radio is beyond me {bnghd} .

So if anybody has one for sale let me know,cheers,Shaun :thumbup:

Well I've blown my £25 monthly CB stash three times over, by buying a snazzy boxed as-new modern fandangled Cobra 29LX EU thingy. I'm not a fan of modern stuff, but always liked the look of these. I just had to ensure I bought a fully working one as I've heard they suffer from bad processors or some other serious fault.

Hi pal :), i mainly keep my eyes peeled on Ebay,but as most of us know the CB Collectors / Dealers ask daft money on there now just as they do on the Facebook Groups.

I don't waste my time (or money) on auction format sales on Ebay anymore as it either results in either shill bidding or numpties bidding stupid amounts against you,i am just opportunistic & wait for house clearance companies etc to list them at realistic BIN prices as CB ain't worth spending a fortune on these days (IMO).

Don't get me wrong i aint tight fisted but just refuse to pay greedy internet seller / lunatic prices & bide my time until the radio i want comes along at the right price ;)

Best regards,Shaun :thumbup:
