Cobra 75 WXST Remote CB Radio

Cons: Like any mobile CB, it will necessitate a bit of installation time. Keep in mind that CB radios operate at a fairly low frequency (27 MHz) and consequently need a larger antenna outside the vehicle to provide reasonably good range, just like your cars AM/FM radio (0.5 to 108 MHz). This unit may lack some of the features found on the more deluxe mobile CB radios such as an SWR meter or adjustable microphone gain, but it is fully comparable to most mid-range mobile CBs while providing very unique attributes regarding concealment and car-to-car portability. Lacks Single Side Band capability, but if youre intent is acquiring random road and speed trap tips from strangers, you really dont need that anyway.

Pros: This is the most compact solution if you simply have no room for a conventional in-dash or under-dash CB, but still want all of the typical features and full power of a traditional mobile CB. All of the circuitry, controls, display functions and speaker are built right in to the microphone. The tiny junction box can be hidden under the dash or even under a seat. This is where the power, antenna and microphone cables come together. The microphones extra long 6 coiled cord lets it easily reach driver or passenger. Also a great multi-car solution; just purchase extra junction boxes for each car and quickly move the microphone from car to car. Also addresses theft issues; just hide the microphone under your seat when parked. Includes 10 weather channels and a couple of unique features: an ability to scan all 40 channels (much like a police scanner) and a feature called Dual Watch, which allows you to monitor any two channels simultaneously. Includes integrated microphone/transceiver, junction box, direct wire power cord and microphone hanger (antenna not included).
