🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.

Both users find the President HF Rig to be a good value for its price, despite some eccentricities related to its layout and features. User WBY praises the large, bright, and easily readable display, as well as the various controls and features such as the Clarifier and variable RF power control. Meanwhile, user Karen W broadly acknowledges it as a useful start for anybody getting into HF, while also calling out its quirks. Both users advise to be aware of its CB radio-like layout, and some oddities like unused echo and Roger beeps.

Pros

  • 👍 Affordable for a HF Rig
  • 👍 Low footprint and bright, readable display
  • 👍 Good set of controls and features
  • 👍 Can be used for different modes such as FT8, RTTY etc.

Cons

  • 👎 Layout is more like a CB radio, less like a typical ham radio
  • 👎 Comes with features like echo and Roger beeps that are typically not used
  • 👎 Some reported quirks with menu settings and volume control

Should I Buy It?

If you are looking for an affordable HF radio to delve into the world of ham radio or upgrade your VHF/UHF setup, this could be a viable option. Just be aware that it does come with a few quirks and unconventional features attributed to its CB radio-like layout. If these do not pose a problem, the radio seems to be a good value for its price.

    • Awesome!

Excellent radio! I've had this about a month now and am still finding impressive features, some of which aren't in the manual. I did the extra channel mod to include 11m, super easy and doesn't eliminate 10m or 12m, it just adds another band to the band menu. Tuning now runs from 24.710 to 30.110 MHz and can be tuned in as small as .1 KHz increments by using the push button on the tuning dial to move the cursor under the readout to the desired space and then turn the dial.(this is not in the manual). The TX sound is incredibly clear. People think the mic is cheap because it's lightweight, DO NOT BE FOOLED! This is an electrete condenser mic and the dual filter is tuned to this specific mic. Don't change mics! It is different from any other mic out there and other mics won't work correctly with the tuned circuit in the radio. If you really have to have a heavy mic just hot glue some fishing weights to this one, that's what the other mics have anyway. The clarifier is unlocked from the factory, no need to mod it. In fact, it's better than unlocked, it's a menu item with 4 options, off, rx only, tx only, or both rx and tx. I've never seen this ability on any radio, even on modded radios. SWR is displayed every time you key up. The freq counter switches to an SWR counter when you key up. It has high SWR protection that it also a menu item that you can turn on or off and set the step down level. This thing's got it all! Well, almost all. The only two things I don't like, the bottom firing speaker. Just get rid of it. Is just taking up space in the cabinet. The only place it works is in an overhead mounting anyway. I pulled mine out, maybe it will help with cooling to have the extra airflow through the open holes. Get a good external. No biggie. The biggie? No direct entry keypad anywhere. A keypad on the mic and this thing would be perfect. ... show more

    • The perfect 10 Meter Rig!
This is a great 10 Meter rig - and - when I get a 'General' class license, a great 12 Meter rig. I have made several contacts with it. Highly recommended!

    • Excellent radio
The media could not be loaded. This is a great radio. It’s packed with many great features. It has echo/roger beep option. The clarifier can be changed to different options. The display has three color choices. In the short time I have owned it I have made many dx contacts. Also it’s easy to mod Power output is good. It’s a very compact radio. Good value too ... show more

    • A highly recommendable transceiver, President Lincoln II V.3+
There is a surprising amount of control for this radio. The receive is extremely sensitive and the high cut filter works really well. For mobile use, the antenna noise limiter and noise blanker are really, really, good. However, I only used it mobile once. It is now a home unit that is powered with a computer power supply. 30 watts AM peak, 56 watts ssb, and just under 40 watts FM are the power measurements into a dummy load. I am not authorised for AM, FM, LSB use on 10 meters because of my lowly license. The RF gain control helps tremendously during noise atmospheric condition days. It is not merely a secondary volume. The roger beep time comes in really handy for 10 meter USB. I set it to 50 millisecond duration and I no longer have to end sentences with, "over," which I hate doing with a passion. With such a short beep set, it does not annoy anybody and It still does the job of removing the, "over," from the end of sentences. 12 meters is only receive for me. My lowly license does not cover 12 meters. CW is smooth with no harsh buzzing or hissing, like some CB/amateur radio combinations are. Speaking of CB, there is supposed to be a conversion for CB that can be done to this radio. It may have something to do with the data port, I am not sure. I already have a CB. I highly recommend this radio for anybody. You can be a complete novice, like me, or hold the highest license your nation offers, it is the radio for everyone. Even if you do not have a license, it is an excellent receiver for 10 and 12 meters. From what I have heard, with a small conversion, it will even receive 11 meter CB, (probably not transmit). Some business bands can also be picked up, and the end of portion shortwave. It is not a full HF transceiver, but what a radio for £200! ... show more

    • Not as good as the President Ronald
Poor modulation and very poor receive on strong local signals. I own the very small President Ronald radio which is a lot better than this Lincoln. The drawback of the Ronald is that it does not have sideband. But I've tested this Lincoln side-by-side with my Ronald and this Lincoln will go in the trash can. I promise you it's not nearly the radio that the President Ronald is. If you have a very nearby strong station this President Lincoln will clip it out and cut the received where you cannot hear their signal. the digital display will indicate that there's a strong signal coming through but you will not hear the audio. No combination of noise limiter noise blanker or high-cut or none will allow that strong signal to come through. You have to cut down the receive game in order to receive that strong signal. And then you can't hear any medium or distant stations. all reports of transmission reported that I had very poor modulation. The Rodger beep was stronger than my voice. when I finally unplug the Lincoln and plugged in the President Ronald everybody breathes a sigh of relief and said that I was finally back. This radio in my opinion is junk compared to the Ronald. UPDATE:. Bought an Anytone AT5555N. Now this radio is what I was looking for! ... show more
