A peek at the seller's feedback is enlightening.

That radio normally is capable of receiving on 27.185 isn’t it?

I’m pretty sure he has that frequency displayed in the picture to try to lure CB types into bidding on it.

FUnny thing is the 718 doesn't come with many "options" as stated. probably a CB dealership.

If I sell something with pictures, I'll set it to 15070 kc just to mess with people.

Did they clip the little diode thingy to enable the "roger beep"?

This message was sent while the listing was active.
cfoofmofo is the seller.



It has been modified to work on 11 meters. It was really quite simple I only had to remove one small surface mount diode which will be in a plastic bag when I ship the unit. I need to check on that roger beep.

I think what he did was a marketing idea, he posts the sale with a cb freq on display because he knows all the free advertising of the ad he will get,,,,, its working http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

I don't think it worked all that well, it went for way less than it should have.
