it's a galaxy 95t/connex 4800/148fgtl-dx/rci6900/etc/etc in 'general' packaging.....have found it to be a real good AM talker, and a pretty decent sounding sideband radio as well.

General Grant 10 Meter Radio
Features: Gold Face Small American Flag on faceplate Small Meter with Scales for Signal Strength and Power Output Red/Green Transmit LED Noise Blanker/Automatic Noise Limiter 24-30 mhz Frequency Range (once modified)12 Bands 480 Channels AM/FM/USB/LSB/PA Modes Built in amplifier with two 2290 Toshiba Transistors!!! Lowest priced Full Featured Big Rig Radio! 50 Watts Maximum Power Output AM 100 Watts SSB Peak and tune will get 150 watts PEP on AM & SSB!!!


that's about all there is on these radios. 'general series amateur radios' are made by ranger, but they take no claim for them (just like connex, superstar, etc) & there is little if any advertising or mfr support for them, other then by dealers. but, since they are ept6900 board radios like those i noted above, anybody who services them, can service the general radios.
