Hey everyone,

I wanted to solicit advice about the Magnum 257hp export radio for all who may own (or previously owned) one. Specifically, likes and dislikes, as well as mounting solutions. I have a 2010 DC and I'm thinking about investing in one.

I searched for info on this forum, but didn't have any luck. Thanks in advance!

Yes

Magnum makes some great radios. A friend of mine has an S9 and it's one of the best radios out there. I'm not sure about the 257? Maybe try a google search or check some of the CB forums.
