Exploring the DB series of radios! From the mini DB25 (25W) to the standard DB40 (40W), discover their shared interface and user-friendly experience. Perfect for any setup!
Turn your Retevis MB1 CB radio (and its clones) into a Ham-friendly powerhouse!
In this video, I show an even easier way to unlock the radio for ham radio use. Along the way, I run into a surprise: my power meter FAILS on camera — so I break out a backup meter and prove the mod works.
You’ll see:
• Side-by-side testing of two MB1 radios
• The Amazon “return repair” fix in action
• Power meter troubleshooting live on video
• The All New Easy Mod Method!
If you thought last time’s CB→Ham mod was slick, this one is faster, cleaner, and works just as well.

ILLEGAL CB Hack?! Converting a CB into a Ham Radio (Retevis MB1 Mod) #3
Today we’re taking the Retevis MB1 (Anytone Hera) CB radio and proving it works — then showing how it can be converted to transmit on the ham bands.
Is it really illegal? Not if you know the FCC rules. As a licensed ham operator (KM9G), I’ll walk you through what’s actually allowed, how this CB performs, and what happens when you open up the frequencies.
🔧 Radio: Retevis MB1, Albrecht AE6290, Team TS-11vi, Anytone Hera, CRT Xenon
📡 Bands: 11m (CB), 10m, 12m
⚡Power: 15 WATTS!!
