I find it amazing that folks expect a single answer for Antenaes, mounting location, etc. when there are several factors to consider. I find it even more amazing that cbradio magazine would be so bold as to recommend an antenae without even knowing if the person had a ground to mount the antenae on to begin with.
Should do a review of the new Cobra BT with Nightwatch, Soundtracker, and Weather. Is nicer than this one is. Has varible brightness, not just a switch,7 NOAA weather channels,and soundtracker for night operations.
Hi, I'm new to CB radios, please bear with me. I'm planning to buy the cobra 29 LTD but I don't know which kind of antenna to get, I'm thinking the old 9 feet whip style antenna. What do you think? Any good? Thanks in advance!
Question: Hooked up this new CB and it did the same thing as the old one. When I hit the button to talk the lights on the CB dim way down and it beeps all the time. What could be wrong with the truck to make this happen?
hey i have this radio works amazin love it but the truck sat for a while and now i have no swr readin at all the weather broad cast comes in good but i dont get any swr reading even if i hole the trigger down on cal it dosnt move what dose that mean do i have a bad growned on my antenna or what im confused any info will help
Hey, I have a similar question to 'ruizhernandestrustfi'. I have a 73 Mustang and would rather avoid the whip style antenna, are there other options that might take a little subtler approach? Maybe one that can replace the original FM/AM antenna. Thanks for the help.
These can cost anywhere from $30 to $300+, but it does require an antennae, doesn't have a great range (but it's alright). CBs do NOT require a federal license. The only radio I know of that requires a federal license is a HAM radio license. These have a great range that can go around the world.
I sure wish Cobra would change the volume/squelch knobs and the dynamike and rf gain knobs. I'd prefer if the seldom used dynamike and rf gain were "ganged" like the current vol/sq knobs. Then I'd prefer individula volume and squelch knobs. My setup would make it easier to adjust volume and squelch without having to look at the radio. In a typical day I adjust volume and squelch several times. I seldom adjust dynamike or rf gain even once during the year. It's a minor nit to pick.

Headsets can be uncomfortable. Outside of that, you make a good point.
What I really want is for cobra to make a cb with voice commands and touch screen 😂😂😂
