I may be wrong but I seem to remember seeing this image ages ago, I mean years. Wasn't it an artist impression of what it could be like?

I have never seen that image of a lincoln 2 before, I was only aware of the standard loking lincoln 2 which are all over ebay and i have owned 2 of. both rubbish. when i saw the pic i thought a new version maybe.


but the moon is very nice this time of year, warm solar winds, but dam cold at night :D

That’s some unknown crap
If you wanna Lincoln 2 – take II Plus.
Decent radio – the best I have had after Kenwood and Yaesu
It will cost you around $280USD – much cheaper than in UK
