President Lincoln II+ AM/FM/SSB/CW Mobile Transceiver 35W PEP, 10m & 12m

The President Lincoln II+ is a highly capable all-mode mobile transceiver covering both the 10-metre (28.000–29.700 MHz) and 12-metre (24.890–24.990 MHz) amateur bands with AM, FM, USB, LSB, and CW modes. Delivering 35W PEP on SSB, 35W on FM, and 12W on AM/CW, it features VFO mode, CTCSS/DCS, NB/ANL/Hi-Cut filters, SSB Clarifier, SWR/power metering, VOX, PA function, Dual Watch, and 6 memory channels — all in a compact 1.4kg chassis made in France by President. A superb mid-range choice between the entry-level 10-metre radios and the flagship Washington.
