Re: Preisident Lincoln ll
I was really looking forward to this radio, and nearly bought one.
Problem with it (in my opinion) is the build quality reported seems to be on par with anyclones, also it doesn't go up in 5's which I am so used to now and wouldn't have another radio that didn't.
I would rather have a dx5000 if I'm honest, they seem a better radio to operate for me.

Re: Preisident Lincoln ll
Hello Nik
You can set the frequency into 5's and leave on it I find the knobs to be fiddly and the RF gain one to be very awkward with having big hands but the rest I find ok time will tell I have the at5555 and I found that awkward to start with but I find it a very good Radio now.

Re: Preisident Lincoln ll
Oh right,
Thanks for the reply matey.
I have watched a few youtube clips of the radio, and it appears to move the selected digit (selected by a line underneath) in steps of 1, so you can go up/down in 1, 10, 100 etc but I have not seen any clips yet of it moving in fives ?
