Hello all. Placed an order with Copper for a Connex 4600 Turbo...like to hear some of your comments about the radio. No interest in ssb, have other radio's that do that, so no need in this one. I have used/owned Galaxy,Uniden,RCI,Magnum to name a few but never a Connex. Thanks for your time to post your comments. |

Dale, had a S-6 radio. Worked fine, but I disliked the recv very very much! I am used to the ole' turn the radio on and hear static, not limited static becasue it was "designed that way". Thats just my personal preference. Sold the S6, and bought a Stryker 440HP,and like that radio very much. I am hoping the Connex I bought works and sounds and good as the Stryker. I know many like the Mag...radio's but for me, I again perfer soild recv with loud strong xmit audio. Hope that helps you out. Again, my view; others more then likely will be different. Kind of like cars, some people like GM and some like Ford while others cant stand either model and buy foreign! Good luck! |

well, the static i am referring to is the atmosphere noise. the connex arrived yesterday and installed it with and the antenna is a hustler mast mount with the rm-11 coil and have to say the transmit audio and power is awesome! i will put it on a watt meter,didnt have time last night, but the recv and xmit is very strong,clear and the echo even sounds great! this is a keeper! Not sure who makes Connex though? |
