Review title: Not well refurbished, need better QC.
Product review: Bought this as a spare/backup for my vehicles. So hooked up antenna/swr, power. Turned on power, LED came on at channel 9, heard thump on speaker but no signal/noise (also nothing on signal meter) just a slight buzzing sound. Double checked switches (cb/pa to cb and nor/ch9 to normal) and knobs (squelch down, rf gain up, volume midway) and went through all the channels but still no signal. Tapped on knobs and case and finally got some rf noise. Rotating through channels and got several clear signals. Tested fine with my base station, transmit and receive. Tapped the unit again and no signal. Powering on and off, unit is inconsistent and needs tapping to be functional. Appears to be internal bad/intermittent connection. Not exactly good for mobile use. Time to return unit to Amazon.
