I am checking out one of these President Herbert radios but I can't find much as far as specs on them. Appears to have 6 bands, but can anyone advise if they have SSB capability, roger beep and a freq counter/display? Any feedback as to whether or not its a decent radio?

Thanks for the info! The one I am looking at appears to be an export model, has 6 bands available to it labeled A-F. Any ideas of the frequency range? Safe to assume there is no roger beep.

Any idea how these radios sound on the air?

I have never used one so I can't help you there. I believe the band range is 25.615 - 28.755 after modification.
