Thank you again sir for your time and resources going into this radio. You made the process easy and effortless. I know this will not be the last time you will be doing a radio for me. Talk to you soon. 73

Welcome to the airwaves. Started driving and chatterbox chatting full time at 22yrs old. Now retired in my late 60's. You picked a great radio and an awesome tech. 73. 😑🦗

Thanks for the tutorial! Per the schematic, the addition of a 1k resistor forms a voltage divider with a 10kΩ resistor connected to the 5v regulator. Without the jumper (resistor), the radio sees a logic high at 5v via that 10k resistor. With the 1k resistor in place, the resistor drops the voltage at that point to 0.45v for logic low. If the total resistance is 11kΩ, the total current is 5v / 11kΩ = 0.4545mA. Since there is only 1/11 of that 5v (0.4545v) appearing across the 1k resistor, the power dissipated in it is 0.4545v x 0.0004545A = 0.2mW. So a 1w resistor is a bit extreme... If they thought the average CB'er (who these are really marketed toward) could work with SMDs, those through hole part vias wouldn't even be there since it is just a CMOS logic level signal.

Man thanks for posting this level of detailed info. I just bought a Lincoln 2+ with the cb mod. Your channel just popped up the day I'm about to instal in my truck and man you really dropped some bombs on me. This is my first big radio and you really explain the ins and outs of the radio.

Just found your show. Loved it! Thanks!

I have this radio and Did the conversion but other than that it is stock. This radio is great, I've made tons of contacts both on CB and 10 Meter. Great radio, President is knocking them out of the park with quality stuff. Great video Thx.

Outstanding video! Dig the handles. I have those on my FT-891, FT-991A and IC-7300. As for the CB world looking at picking up a RCI-2970N3. Keep making these outstanding videos!

Hats off.Best video on the web.Thanks.

Excellent video - I am new to CB and this is a great video. Thank you for being clear, concise and educational.

Just came across your video when I was looking up a cb with Ham to put in my semi and really just learning bout all these different radios and trying to find the right one. Anyways loved this video so I had to subscribe

Welcome to the hobby jack! 386 Tinman wavin. Yeah sifting thru the bs is very tough when your new.

I love that radio

Welcome to the hobby...73' from Whiskey November 115, maybe catch you on the airways sometime.

You said "Hold onto Something.". I caught that.

Welcome to the air jack.enjoy this channel.thanks for your content.just got one of these myself.im subscribed.

Hey Ground Control 204 is great video, looks great and thank you for this informative video.

When someone says your peaks -- negative AND positive -- are gorgeous, you can't help but feel the love..

I've been watching you vids, and want you to be the guy to work on my stuff. I have a farm operation and need several units operating. I'd like make contact to explain my needs. I have my first Lincoln 2+, and want to set up at least one more, plus some units with amps to put on tractors. How can I get in contact to discuss my needs?

As usual, another great and informative video Mike. 👏👏👏 To the young man that this video was made for, I have a word for you... Be thankful that you're informed with this kind of honest tech work so early into this hobby. Stick with 204 and others like him and you'll save yourself tons of cash, frustration and confusion. I got my first CB radio 37 years ago and dealt with different so-called techs over the years and in honestly only two of them truly knew their stuff. Unfortunately they've both passed away. This channel keeps things on topic and honest. Mike I know you'll read this post eventually and I have a small request. I'm sure there are other radio-heads other than myself that would like to see a video about radio reception. Like, which radio do you think has the best receive (new or old) and should a receive section of a radio ever be tweaked. I was really spoiled by a couple of my old Cobra 2000's years ago by having such a low noise floor with hardly any white noise. You get the idea. Sorry for such a long post, keep the vids coming. Peace and 73 from 251! 🤙

Welcome to the C.B. Waven from Southern California

Wow! I have been using a stock President Lincoln II+ for a few months now and would love to send it in to you some time.

Awesome video mike

nice piece of equip u got on top lolol

Another great vid. I've noticed you use a Ranger SRA-198 when testing. Is that your choice of handheld mics? I have one myself.

New comer just starting just retired getting my ham and radio’s soon

Nice! Mic question: I have not seen a video of anyone using a desk mic on an Anytone, Lincoln, or Stryker. Thinking of getting a lincoln and using as a base. Will a Turner desk mic work on this?

He started out Radio with a damned good unit. I love mine and 204 did my setup up right. I get good AM results and SSB contacts. Welcome to the real CB world and get ready to spend money. I still look at and buy them. Good job, brother.

This maybe a stupid question. Can you use FM on the 11m band after the conversion?

awesome video sir

I'm in the UK and ours comes with a white wire, that you have to snip. I also own one of these radios

If you hit the DOWN arrow cbpasswd is only one click ✌🏻

Is that smaller than a stryker 447 hpc? I just bought a Lincoln for a mobile hope she fits

What sort of stackable stand is that holding your O-scope?

I have a president Richard from Zane Johnson I like those handle 's

Hi

Quick question. How do you connect radio to oscope?

How can I get in touch with you about my president lincoln 2 plus? I don't have Facebook.

I have an old 80’s era President Lincoln that still works but I have been thinking about replacing it with the Lincoln II+ or another brand, if I do decide to get the Lincoln II+ would you be able to tune and align it?

I have 2 of these radios one converted one unconverted I like them I'm not impressed with the echo on it you can't dial it in to your liking without going through all these steps but other then that its a OK radio

Hy Sir, Lincoln 2+ or CRTSS9900???????

Want too send you 2 of these. Sent you an E-Mail Alabama Watchman (Sarge Marine) FB.

Once you make this CB Conversion, do you retain the 10 meter band?

Is there any reason I couldn’t put that resistor on a micro switch to be able to easily put it back to 10m ?

How to become a new customer? Thanks

I’m trying to decide between the Lincoln 2 plus or the anytone 6666, any suggestions??

So quick question, looking at this or the AT6666. Using a Stryker A10 antenna for CB in a semi. What would you recommend?

Hi the handles can you get them in uk or is it just usa
