About 100 N.O.S. of those appeared on ebay a few years back now, straight from an auction deal. They had some 200's too.

I've just purchased my 1st CB rig in 42 years!

My last purchase was a Fidelity CB2000FM in 1981. Last week I purchased an AnyTone AT-5555n2.

Blimey, things have moved on a bit haven't they? It came with a dedicated USB cable which I believe I use to programme the UK and CEPT channels into 'bands'.

So much to learn.

And that's why I'll stick with my Amstrad 901 lol ;) It's all gone way too confusing for the likes on my brain.

A nos Nokia HFS-12 speaker off fleabay.
Bit miffed, the outer cables sheath is all frayed badly at the speaker and fraying at the jack plug. (No fraying on photos)

It works though so I'll either just heat shrink it or tape.
Can't be bothered returning it, contemplating whether to give negative or neutral feedback. They must of noticed the state of it when packing.


Recently bought a thunderpole tx and a
k-po dx 5000 :)
