Hello all. I'm selling my 28c and have always wondered what the difference is between models 45c and 28c. I can find many 45's posted on line, but very few 28's. Is that a good thing or bad thing. Thanks Steve

More or less the same radio.
45 is AC, and 28 is AC/DC

>> Not my stile.

Do you mean the waist? Icon_lol or the 28? If the former, I doubt folks her would care to incorporate it in their styles either Icon_lol

If the 28....well, I have a 45.
