REVIEW & COMMENTS

REVIEW

The ease of installation of this product from MAGNUM International and the VERY SMALL size of this product is a MAJOR improvement over the Echo/Reverb boards of past years.


For the Review on this product I installed this in a Uniden PC78 and a Uniden Pro 510XL.

COMMENTS

The ease of installation with a simple 3 wire installation of this product from MAGNUM International and the VERY SMALL SIZE of this product is a MAJOR improvement over the Echo/Reverb boards of past years.

The MAGNUM BR-1
BIG RADIO SOUND™
ECHO ~ REVERB BOARD
is designed to be installed by the novice (new to the hobby) operator or the more experienced radio operator with it's 3 wire microphone pin connection.


The overall size of the ECHO ~ REVERB BOARD is a BIG + with it only being Length: 1-3/4" x Width: 1-3/8" x Height: 1/2".

Also the simple/easy 3 Wire installation is another +.

If you have a radio without echo and want to add that BIG RADIO SOUND with Reverb then this is the easiest and most reasonable way for you to get on the air and sound like the BIG DOG of the air waves.

Want MORE Stadium Sound with Advanced Audio?

Simple, just change R-16 which is a 20K to a 12K.
