Glad you made it to Hamcation I wish I could’ve met you. I’m one of the cochairmen so I miss a lot of the show. I always enjoy your videos now I want to get on 10meters. 73.
When 10 meters is open it’s awesome so much fun Dxing from the mobiles I’ve talked all over the world with 30 Watt RCI 2950 and a Sirio 5000 mag mount , just today I’ve ordered President Lincoln 2plus can’t wait to enjoy. Awesome video as always
Was it worth the money and did it turn out good?
I just watched your review of the Lincoln ham radio. I'm just getting into ham radio and will be obtaining my license soon. I do overlanding traveling and this radio is the one I'm looking at. Thank you for your review
I got one that I used in my van for a while. I used a FireStik Mach-10 antenna with it. It is specifically made for the tech SSB portion of 10 Meter. Since I was only a tech until yesterday, it was a good setup. I had a QSO over 800 miles away on the 4th of July. It'll be set up differently when I get another vehicle. Hopefully soon.
At what point did anything make you think it was made the the tech SSB 10 meter section, this is and was always aimed at the CB market, its got roger bleep and echo built into it.
Hi Eric. I got this about a year ago to replace the Realistic HTX-10. Fantastic radio! I have it set up in my mobile connected to the cigarette lighter and a K40 mag mount on the roof of my 2008 Kia Sportage. I've made a great deal of contacts. I love the radio. Can't wait for 10 meter to open. Catch you down the log. 73's from Kc2ngh.
I just installed this radio in my car two days ago. I have talked to some local hams and got some really good reports. I got reports of 10 over 9 even deep down in a hole lol. Great videos by the way makes me want to do some radio reviews myself lol. 73,s KB3YLT
I like this radio alot. Green looks cool. Looks solidly built and great having inbuilt tone encoder.
Wow had NO idea President still existed. I had a President Zachary T Base CB WAY back in the 70's. Loved it. Nice to see the name plate again
I had the original back in the early 90,s I love this radio.
Got one for a Christmas gift in 2018. Finally hooked it up and love it, 11m conversation too. Lots of features. 73’s
After I brought home my FT-101E I learned that the previous owner wired up the 11 Meter band (Criminal Band) and made another silly modification. I fixed both issues, but still need to find new tubes for the final amp. Since the time that I acquired it, it's value has gone way down (like most electronic stuff) and the value of the 1911 that I traded for it has gone way up.
These are now Chinese made. (V3)Look it up. 10 and 11 meters.
Man I'm from S. FL and grew up doing CB and participating when the skip would open up. Started with a Uniden Pro 810E and ran a Antron 99 and then an IMax 2000 and picked up a Magnum Delta Force "Export Radio". Loved it. I'm just like you I'm an extra class these days and don't even have a real HF rig, but I love these President/10m radios for some reason. I recently sold my Magnum Delta Force and now I'm wishing I didn't. It was in mint condiiton too. This video has me wanting one of these rigs as I always wanted one back in the day or an RCI 2950/2970. Keep these vids coming my dude!
President is in Naples
I live in Europe and I had the first version around 30 years ago and even back then it was one of the best if not the best radio in the segment. It was a refurbished one with warranty and I also had it modified by professionals. It had adjustable and upgraded output power and a wider frequency range. I sold it for the same price as I bought it, that's another nice thing about these radio's, they keep their value. To this day I regret that I sold it.
What did you buy next the Alinco? 🇬🇧🇺🇸👊🏻
@@mattcurtis3019 Life happened, and it ended my CB radio hobby. Then a new technology to communicate with people came on the market, and I kept using that to this date.
Love this radio, I’ve had uk doctored into it so I got 80 channels fm, am, and ssb. However, a good friend of mine went in and converted into a rig covering 25 to 30 meter bands. I’ve got copies all over Europe and the USA, even heard some Australians on a good day.
I totally respect you licences people, I’m just one of those that are experienced and never mess about, in fact quite the opposite. I have good friends on ham/cb radios. I just haven’t got the brain power to learn for my ticket. Played pro rugby in the uk and Europe and I seem to have a small bit of concussion problems which is hindering my memory and learning abilities. I enjoy it anyway.
Good vid pal. Very informative. 73’s to you and family in this COVID19 pandemic. 👍🍺
Nice one mate all the best to you thinking of getting this or crt 9900 which one would you recommend I'm from the UK and have a amstrad 901 at moment
I'm with you on this, not so sure I want to register with the feds (US). I buying a few radios and keeping my head down.
Thanks for the shout out Eric. Good to see you at hamcation....With my Orange HRC Shirt !!!
Maybe look for you and jan on Dstar soon. I am tempted to get that DVMEGA

I run 10 meters fm in my truck all the time. I use a older Icom 706 hf/2meter only radio going into a Ldg pro 200 tuner into a 102 steel whip. I love working the repeaters up in New York since I’m all the way here in Florida. 73’s from KI4AGD
I am an old Ham, but never forgot my CB roots, so i use and enjoy both. As for you Hams with the negative comments, you are the very reason Ham is dying and CB is still alive and well. Instead of arrogance, try mentoring CB'ers into the hobby and assist them with passing the test, otherwise, you will all end up old and cranky and chatting with others like yourself about your arthritis and other boring ills....oh, i forgot, you are already doing that!
No Sh*t! Thank You!😉
Hi I’m a truck driver trucking 7 yeas and counting and I’ve never use a CB now I want to buy one and start using it but I want the best,a powerful one do you have any suggestions? Do I have to buy one and customize it or I can buy a good one right over the counter
That antenna is excellent. I’m impressed with mine. 😃👍
Enjoying this radio I got from you. Great rig
I have a Stryker 955HP, similar idea, and have made contacts in the Dominican Republic and as far south as the Panama Canal Zone. When I took the test I only expected to become a TECH, well at 71 year old I passed the General also. That's why I already had bought a 10 meter radio and I'm glad I did.
You are such a great teacher!!! Great review!
I've had a Lincoln II+ for close to a year. Been a solid, trouble-free radio.
How is the Tx and Rx on these Radios???
@@michaelricketts3651 Don't know if Art will respond to your query but I bought my Lincoln II+ about three years ago and I still love it and use it every day to talk to local friends on 10, 11 & 12 meters via phone (voice) and digital modes (PSK31, RTTY & OLIVIA). Audio reports I get constantly tell me the audio output is excellent. There are several local people using the Lincoln II+ on 11-meters and their audio sounds excellent as well. I've encountered a few on 10 & 12-meters DX and they too sound excellent. I've yet to hear one on the air that didn't sound great. Only thing I did to mine was to restore 11-meter TX - no tweeks, power mods or other "golden screwdriver" baloney.
@@ComputerLearning0 just out of curiosity, how do you restore the 11 mtr TX? That band is still allocated as CB here in Australia but the market has diminished so badly that I don't think you can even buy a new SSB radio for 27 Meg in the country. There's a few el cheapo AM only, but I certainly haven't seen an equivalent radio like this marketed here anywhere ..... and I'm actually looking for one,primarily for 10 Mx, but if if 11Mx TX was easily achievable it would be a bonus! :)
@@outbacktraveller58 The 11-meter TX restore modification for the Lincoln II+ involves installing a single resistor on the main board. If you have the non "+" version, that is, the standard Lincoln II then it's even simpler to modify, which involves clipping a looped wired on the main board. Ultimately it all depends on which Lincoln II you have, be it the standard model or the + model. Regardless, there are a number of excellent videos posted here on UA-cam that show precisely how to perform these modifications for either version.
@@ComputerLearning0 Thanks, mate! I ended up stumbling across a couple of said videos! In fact, I haven't used either 10 Metres or 11 Metres for an awfully long time (and you can't even purchase an AM/SSB 27 Meg radio brand new here just about anywhere) as our equivalent of the FCC "granted" CBers the 476/477 Meg band (on FM only) and. essentially, pushed most folks that way, They still have the 27 Meg allocation here for CB, but because our market is so abysmally small, and the radios have to be "type approved", the cost of approval for the tiny 27 Meg market just about put the kybosch on it. Consequently, I haven't played on that band since forever, but I've actually just ordered a Lincoln II + as because I hold an Amateur licence, I don't need to have "type approved" radios. Of course, I couldn't transmit legitimately were I to convert such a radio but .........
I loved my HR2600s years ago. Haven't had either of them in service for too long a time. I may just 'write them off' and get a Lincoln.
Old trucks and some heavy equipment has 24 v the green looks good so does the blue. I have been looking at the rci 2950 and 2970n2 which don't have the tone board for repeaters after watching this wonderful review I'm gonna get one of these Lincoln's
honestly 10 meter repeaters are a waste of time. The Vfo/channel selector is not up to par with tuning around. IF you have to go this way look at the anytone similars....
Very good review,learned a lot.
24 volt was used in older semis and is used in a lot of heavy equipment
Nice video. I just ordered one after watching your review.
My 2510 had auto squelch 35 years ago. Your Lincoln is just a 2510 with 12 meters and tone squelch. What I really miss is my Ranger 2970 DX from 2000. With one extra switch, it would go down to 22 MHz but you also had to open it up for 11 to do it. To avoid drilling a hole, I put a magnetic reed switch across the aluminum heatsink in the back. To go to 22 MHz, I shut it off, stuck the magnet to the edge flap of the top cover so it would overhang over the reed switch, turn it back on and you're there. The downside is it would always reset the memory channels and other settings but I used to like to listen to shortwave. The problem with this radio was it was sensitive to EMP spikes. My antenna was 35 feet away from a tree that was struck by lightening. My base antenna is fine but now I have a 100 watt, 28MHz always on beacon. I even pulled the transmit / receive transistors and the mic. Turn it on, full power beacon in an 8 pound boat anchor. Ranger in California said it blew the microprocessor. 😭 $295 plus labor and postage back then but now they don't even make that processor. HMMmm.
Thank you for this review. For my mobile HAM use, the tiny frequency display (important information to me) and the large channel display (useless to me) are focusing on non-HAM users. I agree with others that Echo, PA, and Roger beep are not needed for my HAM use. Not my cup of tea, but I can see how others will like it. Again, thank you for sharing. 73 de N1DEL
It's a mass appeal radio. They can sell it to hams and cbers
President HR2510 - loved that radio!
I had one to. let a buddy use it and he hooked it up backwards and blew it up. was a nice radio. no fuse on the wire and that was my fault.
Excellent video. You answered a lot of questions about this "style" of radio. Your the first hamtuber I've seen cover these. The CB shoptubers completely avoid the ham question, but have no fear talking about the 100 watt "10 meter CBs" they sell. I'm of the opinion that
the only "policing" of the airwaves are by arrogant authoritarian hams ( the exception not the rule, I believe most are good guys) and that federal regulators are to busy finding new ways to stifle the internet.
Anyway, thanks again. Subscribed and looking forward to more.
I've been looking at this radio for a while and trying to decide between this and the Stryker SR955. Thanks for the video!
kdogg2100 What did you decide on? I’m on the fence btwn the two also. 955 or Lincoln?
Today, the 13th of June 2020, there has been an all day opening on 10 meters. This is not necessarily rare, though not very common during the solar minimum. However, 28.475LSB was extremely busy. Lower side band is a rarity on 10 meters. AM/FM/USB and CW are the modes most commonly used on 10 meters as far as I can tell. However, LSB is a rarity I have never ran across on 10 meters. I guess the legends are true. 10 meter band does have some LSB traffic. I do not have a license. I just listen in on a communication scanner. 100 kilocycles to 1.85 gigacycles all modes are available to me on this scanner. But I have no transmit abilities except on an ancient Cobra 148GTL I have had in my vehicle since 1996. I never thought I would still have that same vehicle and CB radio in it today.
Good to see it has a CW jack (unlike some of the 'quasi' 10 meter 'export' radios out there). Now the data port intrigues me, I wonder if you can use that for packet radio, PSK31 or FT8. It would suck if that could only used for firmware updates... I think the price is within reason especially because the HTX-100 (with only CW/SSB) was originally like $249 when it came out some 30 years ago. If the price ever dipped below $200, this would be a steal.
Cheapest I seen these is now $300. A little much imo 🤷♂️
Good video, Eric
Just picked one of these up. Made some 10 and 12m contacts. Like it alot. Presedent needs to make one thats 80-10m, in that form factor. I would buy two. Reminds me of the PRC radios.
Eric...what antenna were you running for the demo? Great video. Been looking at this radio for a while .
Bought 1 a few months back, did the cb mod. Love it. Use the green on low for best way to see display. Want to do the negative lcd soon. 73 ve6rfl
If I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to be DIN size, so it should be fittable in the dash, but may protrude due to the heat sink.
Well, I do use HF in my truck and UHF/VHF and the HF does have all bands on it. The main reason I have HF in the truck is for emergency communication when I go hunting, cell phones, UHF/VHF don't work in a lot of the areas I go. Having all HF bands if I need help or call for help one of the bands would be open. Having a GPS and HF I might need to contact someone in another state but at least I can get a helicopter in to pick someone or myself up.
Have one of these and love it. It fills the same roll for me as the beofeng but for hf.
Wonderful rig. I love mine.
Thanks for the video. Which one you would recommend for 10m/11m/12m operators. President Lincoln II or President Mckinley or SRT 9900
It's been 4.5 months. Do you still like it? Could you upload a video of you using it and show some CW action? Please and thank you!
I worked the world on my Uniden President HR2510 at 25 watts. My very first HAM radio, purchased on my first trip to Dayton in 1990.
Bought one of these widebanded for 11meters as i use it on js8 27.24500 and love it. Really easy radio to use and looks fab
Js8 on 11 meters, I got to try that
@@HamRadioConcepts js8 on 27.245 is tons of fun. I've gotten over thirty countries so far in 2022.
I like that it has the CTCSS built in. I can't wait to see how that antenna performs. It seems a little on the short side, to be a decent performer. I use a sirio performer 5000 tuned for 10 meters, which works awesome, but is too tall for most vehicles.
I agree, Been using a P5000 for years, one of the best I have seen.
Love my 5000
I help test the differences between a 102" SS whip and a Wilson 1000 thru mount on the top of a truck, the whip mounted to a tool box across the bed of the truck.
The Whip was the clear winner showing two S units better transmit or receive from every direction I had located. Electrically shortened antennas have their place in a persons life but a quarter wave will always outperform an antenna that is electricity shortened!
If you want the best possible outcome of your new radio, you have now been informed how to achieve it.

wondering how you mount your antenna when using the radio at home? Love your youtube channel.
OMG, I had a 1011D in 1977/78, loved it, sometimes hard to tune but use to play chess with Japan at night. Wish I still had it.
I bought this exact radio about 6 months ago!!!
How is the Tx and Rx on these Radios???
I'm doing some homework for my first Ham/CB buy and Lincoln keeps popping up with very good reviews... My usage is some sort of communication if a Disaster hits...aka SHTF, I've already been thru a 7.1 Earthquake and know how important it is to be prepared and able to talk to the outside.
I really like what this radio offers and I’ve been wanting to get a new 10m radio for a while. (Currently have a RadioShack HTX-10 that I’ve had for 20years). You asked why I WOULDNT like this radio and I can only think of two things.
1. The large 40 channel readout is too large and makes me think this is a CB first and ham second.
2. I wish the tuning knob was a standard round knob instead of looking like a CB channel selection knob. Seems like it would make tuning around the band a little clunky.
That being said I’m pretty sure I’m still going to purchase this radio, the price is just too good to pass up.
The reason this radio looks like a CB is because of two reasons, #1 it's designed for mobile use (simple one hand use) and #2 it is easy to convert to 11 meter and that makes it a popular radio for truckers. (again mobile use)
What antenna would you suggest for base operation ?
very nice radio , I am planning on upgrading my mobile rig , I am now using a HR2510 old school lol for my 10 and 11 insted of having 2 radios , I have this radio for 20 years in fact I purchase 2 one for base and one for mobile Idid upgrade my base to the IC706 MK2G, if I could get a new face for the 2510 that would be great if not I am planning 2 new upgrade the Lincoln 11+ and the IC7300
In the early '90 as CBer seeing a President Lincoln in a shack was like seeing a Ferrari on the street. At the time only few could afford it. I am still in love with it and now I can afford to buy one. 😁
im thinking of getting this radio for ten meters wanting to use it for a base station at the house i live in hawaii what kind of antenna set ups do you recommend and were can i buy it wanted this kind of radio because i have a technician licences and can only do so much on 10 meters
New to ham radio,looking at the president lincoln 2 & president Jackson 2, not sure about the 10m 11m and 12m, or which ariel I would use, open to offers ?
Out if the 2 radios above, which would you suggest for a starter radio, I'm in England
Came in late but thank you for this review. Have been looking for a good 10M rig to compliment my dual band 2M/70CM rig in the car and this looks promising. I sometimes travel 3000 miles on occasion and would be nice if there was at least receive only for 11M (ch 17/California or ch 19/elsewhere) for CB reported road conditions.
The conversion to 11M is basically soldering in a resistor and making a configuration change via the menu. It's out there, you just have to look for it.
Why is the squelch always open on 10m? Do you need to hear the static all the time because weak signals may not break through?
I would love that radio (yes I’m a ham)! What I’d like better is the FCC to allow 11m on that also but with just 1-40 and set just 4 watts out. That would be fantastic for people who don’t want two radios in their vehicle.
Its no big deal to.run 15 to 25 watts on cb band
I am ordering one soon!
Very similar to the HR-2510 and the HR-2600! I still have a HR-2510. I love it. I might have to upgrade to a more modern radio like this one!
Which antenna do you use from President? They have 5 different ones. They also have states names on each one. I live in Arizona..
Very cool radio. Would like to see the 11m mod. Military vehicles are 24V.
hey if i hook this radio up to a dual band antenna made for 2m and 70cm will i be able to receive and if i use a tuner will i be able to transmit with low swr cause i heard that a tuner can tune a lawn chair
Hi..what's your thoughts on a Ranger RCI 69FFB4 ..i live in a housing building and not able to have a base system ..hace a chance to pick up this one with a stryker 10k antenna ...am studying for my first ham license .
Great radio. I will get one and power it using my astron power supply. Nice.
I don't know where you live exactly and I know you said the bands aren't dead but I live in WV and will 10 meters become busier even where I live. I hear a group of people on 10 but they are like less than 25 miles from me. So im curious if ill have better luck with 10 then
Just "found" this video. Skeptical for a long time, thought it was a disguised "high" power CB for truckers, which I suppose it is in a way. Couldn't figure out why the "channel" number and a frequency were displayed. With your through explanation it makes sense. This will be a future addition to my collection. Good job! Thanks and 73s
Does this radio function as a CB or transmit on typical CB frequencies?
I love my Lincoln II+ Got mine expanded too
just added a 3rd to my collection. Bought the President Jackson 2 and arrived today
How is the Tx and Rx on these Radios???
Are 102 inch whip antennas still good for receiving?
Great Video
I have this radio in my semi truck (love it)
But what is the indic/call button do?
Do you still have/use this radio? What are your thoughts? I am considering one for as my Beacon Transmitter.
It was a toss up for me for a while to get the Lincoln II+ or the Stryker SR 955Hp, the IC-7300 and Yaesu FT-991A are currently out of my price range but that will change later this coming summer, when the Stryker could come off the desk and into the mobile. 73's KD9OAM
Like to purchase a radio like so. I had a dx88. 10 and 11 meter. Great radio. Can this radio do all 3 bands with 50 watts of power on high out put?
It's Aug. '22. I just purchased a Lincoln II +. I had the radio tuned and aligned and included 11 meters. A superb performer. Add an appropriate
amp and you've got quite the combo for broadcast. 10 meters should be open without a license. Just my humble opinion.
Awesome rick
why should 10 be license free? So it can be a cesspool like 11?
A wise man once told me that a person doesn’t value something he didn’t have to work for. Under no circumstances would I ever agree to surrendering any of our spectrum to persons like you. I believe that you shouldn’t be able to purchase , modify or even possess a transceiver unless you have obtained the authority to transmit on those frequencies. There is a reason why a CB is restricted in power and licensed amateur radio operators can go as high as 1.5kw PEP. Modifying the radio to enable it to operate on frequencies it was not approved for is illegal. You want the power and spectrum but you don’t want to earn it. You want to legally use an amp? Get your license. It’s only 35 multiple choice questions. One more thing… we don’t broadcast. That’s illegal unless your a news service, AM/FM broadcast, or television station. Enjoy your day and I hope to hear you’ve earned your Call Sign one day soon.
OBD3 is centered around 24v lowvoltage. One of my ScanTools are also 24v friendly for this reason. All I'll need is an update and pigtail.
Respect for your love of radio in general, a lot would think *why when you have The Ic7300 etc, it's just a passion, I started in 77 with a Cobra 148gtl dx and a Turner Supersidekick, I'd love to own them today in my collection.... 73s
Do you have your RF wide open or is it turned down?
I have the chip switch in mind. Does anyone know anything about the priority board? How to install it or where I can get one?
Just curious would a 30 amp power supply run a president Lincoln and a rm Italy kl203p amp pulls about 10 amps
Also serve regarding the FM switches on the radios a demonstration
President HR 2600 best radio ever made ,had the chip installed, can't beat the ears on this radio.
Why is the channel number blinking when you talk?
Can anyone tell me if this is a good first radio? Can you reach people across the nation?
Another great video - you are always pushing the envelope =-). Do you know if you use a President antenna, does it have to be tuned?
Michael VA6XMB
?
What's the difference in transmitting on AM versus FM?
I don't yet have my HAM license. I'm just exploring the hobby right now. Can anyone tell me how far away you can pick up commercial FM stations with a set up like this?
Nice... So would you recommend this radio for 10-12 meters ? Thank You
For some of us who are out here and who like watching your channel and are still in the learning mode about the various radios and their capabilities could you please give us a breakdown of what the FM switches are for on these type of radios thanks
Two modes of operation. You are already familiar with this but don’t remember that you are. Your classic car radio is an AM/FM receiver. AM works by modulating (varying) the amplitude of the signal or carrier transmitted according to the information being sent, while the frequency remains constant. This differs from FM technology in which information (sound) is encoded by varying the frequency of the wave and the amplitude is kept constant.
So the FM switch on the radio would enable the radio to both listen to and transmit in the FM mode. FM mode would quieter and you would either be “in there” or you wouldn’t. AM would linger on into the fringe coverage areas.
Lots of construction equipment has been 24 volts dc for many years.
Why do you say what band you are on when calling CQ? I have heard that before and I wondered why that is done.
JMTAUL Its for old transceivers with harmonics where youd be heard on another band but if someone tried to answer you you wouldnt hear then
erick nice voice congrats
I like the looks and I wonder if it was set up for eleven meters would it work good. I do know some C bs that are set up for ham is flakey I have an older 148 gtl that is so flaky around five o five which is about the limit of that radio.
the 148 gtl is very flakey. I would think this radio would be more stable stepping down instead of running a c b up.
Wrong, wrong, wrong. :-) President is still partners with Uniden. Also not designed in the USA. President global headquarters are in France. Any President radio made in Vietnam is made in the Uniden factory. Any President radio made in China is made in the Qixiang plant. I do President's warranty work which is little to none. It's usually pretty safe to run the mic gain wide open on these. The AMC and ALC circuit attack times are rather fast so as long as the radio is stock and unmodified you won't have to worry about over modulating. Mike KC3OSD
Back in the day, I knew I guy who loved his President Grant export radio (silver face). We did SSB almost exclusively, and it was fun, and he said that radio didn't suffer from drift nearly as much as other export rigs ( I had a Galaxy for a while and that would drift even after being on for an hour, and Uniden HR2510 which was pretty good, but it just crapped out one day for no good reason). He and I eventually each got RCI Ranger 2950 which were pretty good (I had LCD problems in cold weather), but eventually we got licenses and went to Yaesu 747GXii...no drift with that, but too expensive to keep in a car. What are some good export rigs these days for 10m-11m? I only have a couple of 2m/440 rigs anymore, but I may get back into this at some point.
Mike i miss your channel, i hope all is well.
Good to see Mike is still kickin!
Did you ever fix one that changes channels when keying down? I know a few people that have the same problem with there's.. just wondering
.
@@Andrew-bk4je I have that problem still sometimes. It drops down a channel sometimes when you key up.
Does this unit cover 10 11 and 12 meters?
I really like this guy. He is a really nice guy and makes me feel really good with the UA-cam videos that he makes!
When is Uniden going to market a General coverage transceiver ?
Probably never. They did have an HF transceiver in the 70s called the uniden 2020.
how lockout channels that stopping the scanning?
