Curious about the Bearcat III..the front speaker is Black?
|
I 'custom-made' that radio... I had a draw full of III and IV parts and I liked the black-on-black better so that's what I used. As you can see, I did that twice. Eventually I'd like to try and sell the second on that's under the screens, lol... I don't need two.

How is the sensitivity of the cdm-1550s compared to the Motorola maxtracs?
|
The low band CDM is a little "too" sensitive. I get a lot of birdies on the 46MHz range and it really aggravates me. The front mount speaker audio isn't that great on a Low band CDM for some reason. Sounds a little tinny. I'm going to install an external speaker some time soon when I'm not sitting around the house drinking cold one's and smacking a tennis ball on the Wii. To answer your question, I liked my Low band Maxtrac better. Better receive and the front mount speaker was nice. No need for an external.

Wow very nice. I can only hope mine looks that good once I move...

It took me nearly 7 years in radio land to get to where I am today. I went from Bearcat III's to XTS5000's. It takes a long time to move up the ladder. You'll get there some day and you'll blow me away. haha!
Thanks again for the kudos!
