    It sounds great good little radio, works in the house but doesnt like my car. I really think someone in my neighborhood is jamming my signal. GMRS radio does the same stop coming on but works in the house. All the fuses work. Really great radio am some pickup fm great at times. Still, not a lot of people hasnt switched to Fm.

    Super small head unit, comes with bracket for underdash mounting and wiring for fuse box. All controls are on the Mic for easy one handed use. I actually placed head unit under the seat after putting a standard cigarette lighter plug on wires. This makes it easy to move from car to car if needed. Unit works well, great for traveling and staying in contact with other vehicles you are traveling with. I would recommend.

    The style of the CB radio is very clean in my truck. It is not noticeable once I put it up under the steering wheel, I just had to buy some velcro to hold it. I had to buy a PA for it and it was perfect for that system. Would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for one! I just think the price is a bit high, I think you can find one very similar at a cheaper price.

    very easy to use and has a very user friendly interface. do not like that it did not come with an antenna. other than that it is a great unit with clear audio. the buttons on the unit are very responsive.

    Always wanted to get a CB since I was a kid in the 70s when CBs were all the rage. This is a very compact yet capable 40-channel CB - good value for the money. For home use you would need a 13.2 volt power supply (I already had one) that can handle a few amps of current. I just needed to purchase a CB antenna which I did. I did not do a SWR test/calibration which everyone should do for maximum performance - I just didnt have the time but will do so soon. Nevertheless, I connected the antenna and reception was good from my apartment window - I suspect reception would even be better outdoors in a mobile setup (there is an under dash mounting bracket supplied). Transmission clarity was good as I talked to several CBers and they heard loud and clear from about 2-5 miles away - not bad from a basement apartment window! All functions are done via the mic PTT handset. Tried several channels and it seems to work well across several channels. This unit requires some getting used to as there are many functions available from the handset, so there is a learning curve to access special functions. Good value for the money and a good starter CB for home or mobile use.

    This device is very small and compact. Havent been able to use it yet. Had to order antennae. Have to get back to you with how it works.

    Ive had many radios from radioddity, and I havent been disappointed in either quality of product or product support. This is actually my first production CB radio thats newer than 20 years old! Ive owned many hand-me-downs and I really enjoy the efficiency of space and ease of use with this radio! Very simple to setup and put to use with the addition of a designated CB antenna. Not much of a power draw because the output is rated at 4 watts so you can simply plug into your lighter port and get on the air. For a cost effective option to get on FM CB this is really a great option!

    I hadnt used a CB radio for literally decades, and cell phones have really hammered the CB market, but CB still has some great uses, especially where cell service is spotty (like in the mountains or deep wilderness, which is why I pulled the trigger on this purchase). Of course, CB performance, especially transmitting, depends a great deal on your antenna, but this radio does what its supposed to do in that department, even with the cheap antenna I have. I also like the dual coax connector so it should be plug-and-play for all applications. I like how this radio is really small, like only 4 square and 1 deep small. Since Im using it infrequently, I can easily store it and then pop it on the bracket with the two thumbscrews when I want it. I do wish they had included a 12v connector on the power leads or at least a cigarette lighter plug to make it easier to remove from the vehicle when I want to, but I added one myself so no worries. However, the downside (for me) to the small size is they have chosen to put ALL of the controls as well as the display only on the microphone. If you used this all the time, you would eventually get used to where all the small buttons are located, but for the occasional user like me, its a bit of a guessing game. Plus, with so many functions, you often need to switch modes to use the same button for a different function. I havent followed the technology over the years, but I think Id prefer a dial for squelch control, for example. Also, having to look at the microphone to find buttons and read the display while driving is probably as bad as texting while driving. As I said, its a learning curve issue, and I AM an old dog trying to learn new tricks. Seems like a good, solid radio for the price; just expect to spend some time familiarizing yourself with the controls and display on the mic.

    Great little CB with AM and FM signal I found a great little spot to install it in my car.. Remove the Mike when parked, you can not see the unit is installed in the car.
