Uniden PRO501HH Pro-Series 40-Channel Portable Handheld CB Radio/Emergency/Travel Radio, Large LCD Display, High/Low Power Saver, 4-Watts, Auto Noise Limiter, NOAA Weather, and Earphone Jack

Initially i was buying a different unit but i got screwed by amazon on the delivery, i picked these only because they were in stock. I got them this morning, installed batteries and antenna and my wife and i were talking without any issues me being several hundred yards away on our property and her in the house. I was able to call my buddy on his base unit 2 miles (straight line) away and again clear as day. Im impressed because there is no line of sight as we live literally in the woods, and have a metal roof so for a handheld at a decent price these are very good units.

Worked well enough originally, but stopped working mid-way through a drive. Not recommended.

Bought as a portable for work truck. Works great. Good clear sound quality.

works if you are within 100 yards of a sender

Got it today, box wasnt sealed, no tape, nothing. Looked just like you pulled it from a retail shelf and slapped a label on it. Plus, its dead, put in new batteries, even tried the cigarette lighter cord. Nothing. Dead as a freaking doornail.

Garbage, won’t pick up or transmit to any channels, and was denied a refund. Do not waste your money on this junk!

When I 1st got the radio I could not figure out how to use the scan feature. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it would not. What the instructions will not tell you is that you have to have the squelch knob turned up to the point where there is no more static in order for the scan feature to actually start scanning. I actually went to the trouble of calling customer service only to get someone that was difficult to understand and could barely help me at all. It was only after I sat around and played with it for about an hour that I actually figured out what was going on. That would have been a nice little bit of information to include. I had literally already printed out a return label and put it on a box and was ready to put it back in the package and send it back and figured it out at the last minute.

Doesn’t have a very long range but is good for what it’s made for I guess

Unit overheated and failed within a few minutes of putting batteries in. Uniden quality is apparently not what it once was.

At first, I could not reach half a mile. I added. a TRAM 703-HC with a BNC male to UHF female adapter. The first time I turned it on I was speaking to someone in Colorado the second time I was speaking to someone in California. You’re not supposed to be able to talk to someone over 5 miles. With the added modifications, I would give it a five-star review.
