within the rhelm of the various radios that have been manufactured. one model that clearly stands out is the HR2510 ( do not confuse with HR2600 similar but is a completely different radio ) these radios were manufactured when the word quality construction meant something in the design and use of a mobile radio. anyone who has ever had or used any of these radios can easily tell you that they were some of the best radios manufactured.. i have all versions of this radio and still have 3 versions under various applications and use. it is simply a very good radio. it sounds good and people like it. if you like radios and you do not have one of these. you should own one. they are no longer manufactured. you either have one or you do not. works very well as a home radio or mobile radio.. recomended antennas are antron 99 for home use.. for mobile a 8 foot whip works well or a k40 or wilson 1000... i used the 8 foot whip. all i ever heard was good signal reports. best wishes.. PS there is an upgraded microprocessor for this radio called a chipswitch cpu replacement. this is the only suitable modification that will convert the radio for use of both 10 and 12 meters. the export version of this radio is called a 'president LINCOLN' the lincoln and 2510 are basicaly the same radio but the lincoln has a rf power adjustment in place of rf gain.. the 2510 stock radio does not or can not use a split frequency for repeaters unless it has a chipswitch modification. the hr2600 is the version of this radio that has split frequency operation for repeaters.. neither is the same chasis but is similar design. the chipswitch chip can work for all chasis versions.Read full review

this radio is made to last, I had one a few years ago when I got into ham radio. Being disable veteran I don't get around much so ham radio is my hobby. I recently had a house fire and lost all and now live in a vintage rv trailer and want to get back into the hobby, this radio is a great start for anyone who wants to get started into ham.
