President Adams FCC CB Radio, Large LCD with 7 Colors, Programmable EMG Channel Shortcuts, Roger Beep and Key Beep, Electret or Dynamic Mic, ASC and Manual Squelch, Talkback

This is a fine working radio directly out of the box.

Functions as it should, I do not use the auto squelch, prefer the slight hiss. 3mm machine screws needed to mount the mic holder were not included. Still searching , only need 2, not a package of 50. Hidden functions are yet to be determined. Gimmick functions are ok. Do not loose the manual, the push two/three buttons at a time functions are not obvious. Speaker is clear. I like the 4 pin mic plug as opposed to the plastic snap plugs on other brands. For $70, paired with a $20 antenna its a pretty good choice for an average traveler.

As usual, the President line of radios are all exceptional values, the President Adams is no exception. Transmit wattage can be tweaked to a full 4 Watts if you know the secret. Audio modulation can also be bumped up to make this radio a loud talker. This would also make a great prepper radio.

Ok so I get it, I paid less than 100 bucks so what do I expect. This mike is the size of a 3 year olds toy. I mean why would they make it that small. so now I will upgrade to a better mic. then I will get an swr meter. well heck, its cheaper to buy a Cobra. I am SO disappointed in this product they pass to the consumer!

Product did not work

Ive owned many, many different CB radios over the past twenty years. Cobra 19s, Uniden Pro510s, all the way up to higher end Galaxies and Connex radios. For a sub $100 CB, youll be hard pressed to find something with more features and quality than this little radio right here. Leave it completely stock, hook it up to a good antenna and yap your gums off on Channel 19.

Very nice CB radio. Perfect for those who dont want all that fancy gadgets. Small enough to put in a small car or truck. I havent found anything to dislike about this CB radio.

This is the first time Ive stepped away from cobra and galaxy radios. Im impressed. Packed full of features. Everyone says it sounds great on the other end. Auto squelch is nice if its not too noisy, but if the noise reaches 2 bars then youll have to squelch manually. No big deal. Excellent radio

Used it most of last week for the first time. WOrked well all week!

This was an upgrade from a Uniden 505. This radio has more features than the 505. Another reviewer posted the access to the secret/ service menu, follow his post to the tee and you will up your output to the full 4 watts.
