scott I don't know about the old 2950. But I do have the 2950 DX in my car and it works great.And I have talked all over the U.S. so far.
I have to old style 2970 for my base and that works great also. I have made some contacts on it that I only would have dreamed of on my antique
radio. 73's take care Len # 111 So Minnesota |

Scott yes it is. You can get with 11 meter. All you gave to do is ask when you order it. Like I said the 2950 DX I have in my car can talk. Any way I hope you have some good Dxing also. 73's Scott. Take care Len # 111 So Minnesota. Oh and listen to Copper Fan he knows what he talking about. |

I have a 2950dx and i fond it to be even better than my old 2950. And yes it is easy to expand to 11 meters. just add the module that is supplyed to the little connecter just behind the face. then add the shrink wrap and turn it on it resets to 24-32 mgz. |
