  • Great old radio Dave never had one myself but there used to be loads about, You still using your radio gear ? Badger.Brad

  • Thanks Brad nice to see you still about mate. Just like filming the radios and taking photos of the radios that have passed through my hands as I notice there is always one picture you cannot find on the net. Hope to hear you on the air soon mate. 73

  • Now try the USB position :-)

  • I did try USB but unfortunally did not film as there was no propogation at the time. But I can honestly say this particulay Hygain was down the line on the band. Thats why I got good money for it ;)

see all

  • @moff000 you are one brave person, cobraworxshops is a twat, ruins peoples radios and just isnt a well liked person in the radio community!!

  • @coheher never had any problem with old radios of either chassis myself, maybe if you leave the case screws alone, then nothing would fail!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @coheher I'm also a Cybernet fan. The only component failure i had in 30yrs was an output tranni on a Nato 2000

  • They are great radios indeed. See also my Youtube video showing the incredible noise blanker performance of this radio. And I agree with miserableoldc*nt that these Cybernet radios are excellent radios. The designs are a bit messy but first-class components have been used. I have never had a Cybernet radio give up on me due to component failure. In contrast, I have had numerous Uniden based radios fail on me due to bad components. Mostly the electrolytic and tantalum caps go bad in Uniden radios

  • That bloody roger beep lol

  • I bought one not long ago from cobraworxshopz and it works a treat(wants to do for the price) if they are slightly off frequency they sound terrible on ssb. The rx is fantastic on it.

  • nice to see others still using their HG5's. They are good solid easy to use CB radios, less complicated than the Ham Concorde and still sought after even now. I have 7! Don't sell it keep it.......
