Well, friend, given your helpful comments in the past, let me see if I can do justice to this request:
Geo II fits your needs.
I’m a
PRESIDENT fan, admittedly, and believe then to be best choice.
(I’m going to add non-FCC electrojuice comments as context from the standpoint of mobile which is the more difficult environment. It’s possible these days to outperform a base station from a hot-**** mobile).
Depth of experience (time over a year) shows they’ll surprise you pulling in signals when intuition is saying otherwise.
Add the PRESIDENT
DIGI-Mic. The higher quality innards make a noticeable difference. I run it on One.
As an antenna needs a bonded ground plane, so, too, does an NRC radio need a high fidelity extension speaker.
I’d put it against most all $$$ Amateur speakers in a test.
DRX-901
And, at transceiver per
@prcguy :
I’d also have a feedpoint choke.
You’ll note in
@jcrmadden post of a couple of days ago that the base stations and mobiles are dumbfounded at how quiet is the TX from his Toyota.
Treating both ends of the coax has become SOP for my radio rigs.
When one’s voice arises from a background of silence, others find it not only uncanny, they respond that much more quickly.
This is why you’ve seen me advocate
clarity as the path to pursue over
just some extra power. The former far outweighs too much of the latter in the real world (150W mobile limit, IMO).
In turn, the Hi-Fi speaker gives one a leg up in comprehension and “data transmission rates” go up accordingly as you’ll ken to his state of mind more rapidly.
If you want the last piece of that puzzle then a MORGAN 11M BANDPASS FILTER takes things another qualifying step (mobile).
Heading into a location with atmospheric garbage it’s easy to lose a signal when the yahoo passing you has almost blanked your RX capability.
Son just ordered this for his HF mobile rig.

We both liked that supply, adapters, tools, etc are a complete system within which to work.
One source QC.
My PRESIDENT
Lincoln II V.3 matches up well with RM ITALY products. It’s temperamental about it, but I’ve had zero problem once I’ve used an MFJ tuner and PEP Meter to dial in the settings. 35W “should” be enough, but it isn’t, even with my diesel pickup featuring a 7’ roof antenna
in or near a major metro as the asswipes using
Skip are such a problem.
That’s when one needs the extra punch to alert listeners that you’re local to them. Understand that it’s the equivalent of a flashing red light. It’s not that they can’t hear you . . it’s that the vast majority of radio rigs aren’t very good (they’re poor, as the operating assumption) and distinguishing local from
Skip is more than your disciplined protocol of identifying State, Road + Direction and clearly stated observations.
Some power is a wake-up.
Locals really don’t have much problem in being heard immediately around them. But the psychological dissuasion of
Skip masks that.
Thus:
NRC Clarity with some extra juice and CMC cleanup (plus assuming Hi-Fi) is:
Hear, and Get Heard.
I’d get the George 2 from Scott’s Radio. As another factory radio tester states, “
He makes a clean radio just that much cleaner”. (You’ll find other testaments from the knowledgeable to be similar). His tests indicate that these latest top shelf 11M radios are slightly better than an ICOM 7610 (we’ve entered a golden age).
I can
guarantee that in areas where standard comms go down (cell service) that the version above (gold-plated as described) is exactly what hundreds of men whose cars didn’t disappear wish they’d had at least the first week.
