Nice bit of kit, Easy to use, good accessories come with it, worth the money, I wanted a rig which did not take up much room and this one is ideal for the car or at home (only bought in case all other ways of communication are took down)
This is a great little CB handset easy to use and it’s multi channel.Haven’t had a chance to see how long it lasts on the batteries yet so will review again at a later date
This radio is mighty fine. Saw a lot of people on the Internet saying the supplied antenna is not that good. I swapped that out for a cheap 27MHz whip antenna. Yesterday, sitting in a Dorset car park, I picked up a station from the Netherlands for sure and possibly a German station, as well as locals. First time using cb since the 70s. Good to be back! The supplied car attachment looks really good but I haven’t yet checked it out. Really great radio that works out of the box. Remember, using the small 6 battery pack will only Tx on low power. The supplied 8 battery pack gives the full 4W. Also remember to choose UK frequencies when you fire it up. Follow the easy instructions. Enjoy!
I was initially interested by the versatility of this set. Used as a hand held, all be it with an aftermarket antenna, at first I was a little underwhelmed by the lack of signal I was receiving. Connected the in car kit to a mag mount and it’s come to life. Pleased with the sound quality and the build, but for the best results get a mag mount and power it from a vehicle.
I think it’s great, it’s not busy these days as people don’t talk anymore they use WhatsApp , there are some local people around me that are always on it so earwigging is great, the supplied antenna does the job but nothing wrong with getting a better one, throw in some rechargeable batteries and you are good to go, I’ve been told my mic isn’t great which wasn’t good to hear but I’m still happy, brings back memories from back in the day, from what I have read this is the best hand held available, looks the part also, auto squelch is great for using when auto scan is on , overall I’m happy, brownie points for the wife who bought me it, come on people let’s bring CB back
I’ve owned a few of these this appears to be a newer model but works the same the only downside to this one was my charging case is broken at the bottom were it should clip together and hold the batteries in that aside it’s a nice handheld that’s why I’ve had so many
It works good I think but I can’t get on on to UK mode and I have tryed everything just can’t figure it out yet its my first CB I don’t really no what I’m doing eny tips please
