I have had no issue with SSB but FM is a little low. I will look into this further shortly but microphone pin out is in my community post here.. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxTF4B5WS2C8kHl7E_nCwNOn2Rxn7nLF2-?si=mItFH3k6wyUL5DiP Hope this helps.

@@gtretroworld herzlichen Dank für den Hinweis der Mikrofonbelegung, leider habe ich zur Zeit kein Mikrofon mit dieser Belegung vorrätig, muss noch erst mir eins entsprechend anpassen. Anscheinend gibt es für dieses Gerät leider keinerlei Möglichkeiten ins Service Menü zu kommen schaue bis jetzt dazu leider auch noch nichts gefunden, eigentlich haben moderne Geräte alle die Möglichkeit heutzutage mit einer tastenkombination dort hineinzukommen um Einstellungen für die Modulation, Leistung zu verbessern. Erscheint auch so dass seriöse Verkäufer dieses Modell gar nicht anbieten, ganz egal mit welchem Label es in den Verkauf kommt. 55 und 73 ciao und Chiro

Definitely a bargain, hope you enjoy it.

Hallo guten Tag, ich habe das selbe Gerät diese Woche bekommen, ist ihr Gerät in der Modulation auch so schwach, vom Kollegen sagen alle egal welche modulationsart ob AM, FM oder SSB es ist zu leise. Der Mike gain im Menü für alle Modulationsarten auf 15. Wissen sie zufälligerweise die Mikrofon Stecker Belegung des Gerätes , ich habe persönlich dazu nichts gefunden im Internet. Gibt es vielleicht noch eine Möglichkeit in einen Service Menü der tastenkombination zu kommen?. Ich überlege es ansonsten wirklich wieder zurückzuschicken, bin ein bisschen enttäuscht😢

@ yes thinking i should send mine back . very low modulation fm and am . many other small problems . i have the revised version they say is good now . i say not fixed not ready to sell to people

I would’ve but this wasn’t mine to remove. Pretty straightforward though..haha

Yes I’m sure Moonraker will ship it to France, thanks for visiting the channel.

I'm sorry I just see that you write it on description!

@@loukas2390 Thanks for visiting the channel.

The Moonraker mast seems fine especially for the price. It is also very light for portable work. You can replace the plastic clamps if they ever fail but if you’re careful i find them just fine. I have modified one of them to take more weight and to also almost use it as an antenna, I should really show it in a video. I will have to look up channel master masts but i am guessing they’re only available over in the states.

@@jimhughes9139 I will say before i answer these questions i agree it has a few flaws. I have actually gotten used to the muting and find the receiver quite stable. The rear jack is probably way too recessed for some plugs or adapters but it is certainly very effective with the right antenna. I also expected a little more with the app but it is definitely helpful. Retekess will definitely be reading your comment and are also looking to implement improvements. Thanks for the comprehensive comment.

Thanks 👍

Thats mine away back to moonraker to fix the poor tx audio and the s5 signal meter. Fingers crossed 2nd time lucky.

I thought the audio was great especially on SSB…

@@gtretroworld they must be set badly from the factory, my 1981 midland 7001 made it look like crap in back to back on air tests, tried astatic and leson desk mics and they lifted audio a little, ever contact i had complained how low the audio was. And when i switch to an old cb with 12 watts all i lost was 1 s point, and had perfect audio on a 43 year old original mic.

Soon will do but i have had quite a tuff few weeks with the Mrs in hospital with a respiratory infection and to top it off i have lost my voice. 😂

@ Sending best wishes to your mrs, hope she’s home soon 🙏🤞

@@michaelaris58 Thanks

It certainly is.

It is funny you should pop a comment on this video as I was only thinking about these last week. I sold a few pallets worth a good few years ago on eBay and still need to try one up in the new year with another video. Can you believe it is one of the few antennas in my collection that I have never tried. Thanks for visiting the channel.

@@cnproductions9147 I popped the mic wiring on my Community post and Facebook page. Here is the link. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxTF4B5WS2C8kHl7E_nCwNOn2Rxn7nLF2-?si=x167A7Dwr-9h-Jka As for the missing bits you need to get in touch with the guys over at Moonraker.

@@gtretroworld Great thanks for that .I will get on to them on Monday it only arrived today .I will be fitting one of my astatics to it to give it. bit more punch on 10m cheers

No problem, Thanks for visiting the Channel.

@@alafenetre81 I guess it depends on location but there is still plenty to listen to over the noise.

Glad it was helpful! Thanks

I’ve definitely seen worse and for the money you can forgive it’s looks.

Munchman was brill Dave and still is, I have it in the pit somewhere. The great thing about VFD with gaming was the brightness as at the time Mono LCD was a bit naff. It did eventually take off though especially with the Game boy. You forget VFD was is in all sorts and although it does eventually fade they were super reliable.

​@@gtretroworld1 l d game I got was a tomytronic 3D sky attack and that was a big favourite of mine as the batteries lasted ages in it.. I have heard of vfd dimming a bit but usually gets fixed with a bit of tinfoil or something with high reflectiveness. Remember Tomy turbo dash it looked great but the game it's self was paints

@@lambrettadave7 I still have my Tomytronic Sky attack, infact if you look in some of my videos it is there on the shelf behind me. I never had Tomy Turbo Dashboard but i wanted it badly, saying that I wanted everything.😂

Merry Christmas Gordon, I still have a few of the pocket games like donkey kong etc and i agree they were loads better to use and the batteries lasted forever. I loved Dixons in the Cleveland centre Middlesbrough, I’m guessing you were quite young when you worked in there?

@gtretroworld 17/18. Was an interesting place to work. Got to try out lots of interesting stuff. Like the first Sony 8mm camcorders with CCD.

@ It’s funny you should mention Sony 8mm as my first was a FX30, I still have a CCD from the mid 90s but i think it needs attention. I have a ton of material on various formats that I will one day pull over to MP4. Lots of old radio footage that maybe of interest to some or maybe not.🤣

It is just their custom firmware to suit that particular radio. I still like both these radios as both are super stable.

@@gtretroworld yes i just found out as i have been thinking in buying oneso i thought where to get the software i did found it in the end ,but other same software can be used . I did watch a vid and guy said that you can not also download if you opened up theother channels ,but there is a trick where you can use a flip switch to open and close it .

@ Yes you can modify them for a wider TX with a jumper or a switch.

Thanks, it’s quite different from the norm.

@gtretroworld I enjoy watching all the videos from you, mate. Interesting stuff...

@@ianhagler3678 Thanks

Don’t expect a lot if it doesn’t get much interest..😂

I actually can’t remember that Andy.

​@@gtretroworldBuck Rogers planet zoom!!

@@andyparker7658 Oh planet Zoom in the arcades, i was thinking a hand held game.😂

😮 no way Andy lol

Dear me…😬

FM audio is fine, the problem is gain which I am sure will be easy to resolve with a little tweak.

FM Audio is a bit quiet but SSB is spot on. Hopefully it will be something that is easy to iron out. I have posted the pin outs on my community on here as well as the facebook page.

@@gtretroworld you got a link

@ ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxTF4B5WS2C8kHl7E_nCwNOn2Rxn7nLF2-?si=6fK3AtK0J7ZnPLcV

Hi, there are pots inside to adjust the mod

@@Ossie12pints not opened it, but without service diagram it would be hit or miss what would getting adjusted.

Thanks, Two Ronnies, now that’s a new one 😂 I was thinking E.T and Dave was saying Jonny 5, what next.

@@raymondmartin6737 Nothing that fancy I’m afraid but for the money it is great value.

Yeah nice rig. I plan reviewing a QT80 or the 6666 Pro next year. Thanks for visiting the channel.

@@BIG-T-99 I have the diagrams here. I will post in this channels community shortly and also our Facebook page.

@gtretroworld cheers mate

That is NOT Cobra/Uniden/President 4pin mic wiring... Does anybody know which it is, please reply thanks...

@MrCaveman8 Check my UA-cam Community post or Facebook Page as i have added the diagrams for both Side and RG45 sockets.

​@@gtretroworldany chance of a link to the board

You are aware over here in the UK this was pulled from sale for a few months until the previous issues were ironed out with an updated firmware. Out of interest could you let us know what the many problems were?

@@nickbowes2627 Hi Nick, Good to meet you too, we will have to catch up on the radio sometime. 👍

Me too! Thanks for stopping by.

I haven’t had enough time to fully play with it Al but on the first few contacts it sounds and performs way better than i was expecting especially for the cost.

@@pauloboettcher9157 It covers the Brazilian 80 channels so will probably be almost identical internally. Thanks for visiting the channel.

@@pauloboettcher9157 need to wait till the rp70 with ssb gets released

It actually is cheap but it isn’t as bad as it looks if I’m honest.

Yeah a few have noticed it has been removed from this product. I will pin something in comments.

I have had this for years and although i have other meters i still love using it. If you go back a year or so i actually did a video on it. I would love to see it in the catalogue. Thanks for visiting the channel.

It is certainly strange at first but it grows on you andy. I was surprised it took that long for someone to point that out so well done. 🤣😂🤣

@@gtretroworld 🤣🤣👍👍

Thanks..I also found the HF setting more useful as it really opens the radio up. I am still playing around with it as like you say there is audio settings separate for every mode. I haven’t had it that long but i will make a note of that clarifier issue and check mine.

Hello 👋. Yes I don't know if it's just specific when your on the hf setting. About the clarifier. But I've found it quite odd that you can't adjust just Rx when your on a zero. You have to be in R+T setting in the clarifier setting to get to the zeros . Then of course it tracks in TX as well when you move the clarifier. Bit of a silly one that is. 😔.Unless it's different on the CB band when you turn it on for the different bands ? But I cannot fault the noise reduction circuit it works well here at my location. For the money I like it. Good power . Not a silly amount like the other radios. And sounds good in Rx as well. 73s my friend. Have a great Christmas to you and family. WR456🇬🇧. Richard. East of England.

@@worldradio456uk5 Thanks for that Richard, I will take that all on board and have a play later. I will mention it tomorrow as i need to speak with them regarding an order. You and your family also have a great Christmas 73 also from the Glorious East.😁

Hey bud. Where abouts are you in the East ? Are you near Norfolk ? 73s bud. 👍

@@worldradio456uk5 Just outside Middlesbrough towards Whitby.

I have had all the Pinouts sent for the RG45 socket which includes Data as well as a second mic socket. I will look into this in greater detail in the new year.

@ Great, I'm excited and thanks for the answer, oh yes, I just checked that when I order the device there will be 70€ customs and shipping on top 🥴

@@VOLKZZORN Oh dear that is not good at all, it’s the same when we deal with you guys which is a shame.

@ Yes, it's just a rip-off, it could be so easy if we had a free trade agreement but as long as certain people control us, it's such a shame 🥴

@ Hopefully one day we will get that back but at the moment they seem happy stuffing us.
