Very good radio's the Philippines 360FM. I have one here and there's absolutely no difference whatsoever between it and the Taiwan built version. Off the top of my head the serial number on the Philippines radio begins 05.

Hope yours polishes up OK.
Never, ever, ever....bloody anything ever!

Far too many radio's to list here. But I do own a legal one...

Almost. The first digit is the year. Mine is 15 , so Philippines 91.

Should have worded my reply better. My Philippines 360FM starts 05 and has the 010/AB PCB.

Both my 360FM's serial numbers. 1981 and 1990 models.

The 13 is a stealth version. Sadly the serial number on the box doesn't match that of the radio. I gather this was common as after doing the 27/81 mod the radio's were just put in the nearest box to hand.

Post a pic or two of your new 360FM once you've been at it with a duster and some Mr Sheen!

Is there any particular reason as to why you're collecting those little blue boxes?

Kind of hooked on them.... we have a farm business with lots of machinery, so I need a lot of radios to keep everyone connected...

Midland 2001 was my first ever radio. I’ve tried most other models and makes but keep coming back to the midland range as my rig of choice : easy to use (not too many switches and buttons - easy for the staff 🙄🤔)

That’s about 15 midland rigs now, and they never ever let me down ...

😊😊

I like the little 2001's, they turn on, squelch out the crap and change channel. Job done ;)

Must get the RX on mine sorted one day (or rather Nick will).
