President Johnny III USA 40 Channel CB Radio 12 or 24V, Black

I was quite unhappy with my Cobra 75WX ST CB radio: the reception quality was very bad no matter what antenna I had (5, 4, 3), plus I really, really hated that it kept returning to channel 9 whenever I stoped the engine. Oh, and the LCD screen is so tinny that I needed my glasses to read it. So Ive replaced it with a President Johnny III USA CB. The quality difference between the two is night and day. On the last jeeping trip I had both the HAM (an Yaesu FT400, also a great HAM radio) and the CB on, and I couldnt tell which one was which. I had to keep an eye on the HAMs VU-meter to figure out which was which. And this is with a 2 CB antenna. The thing I liked about the Cobra was its minimal size. But the President is not bad either: I have it sandwiched between the passengers seat and the cup holder console. Perfect fit, close to see, and control. The auto-squelch works absolutely amazingly. As I said: HAM sound quality! - Weather Alert - can do background scans of NOAA channels. - Manual squelch and ASC - Large Multi-functions LCD display - S-meter - ANL filter and HI-CUT - RF Gain - Scan - Priority channel memory - Roger Beep - Front microphone plug - perfect for using it with a JeepUniq mic mount! Downsides: a bit more expensive than comparative size CBs, but thats not apple to apple comparison this is a fully featured CB (it only lacks sideband to be considered top-of-the-line).

love it volume could be a little louder will add external speaker

Youre going to need a antenna pluse all electric servers for 12v. All you get is the radio.

President Johnny III is easy to install and setup. Great features like scan and weather channels. Speakers is loud and clear. Paired with 3 foot firestick reception is impressive and clear for a CB.

I expected high quality, and instead the screws to hold the mic mount don’t even grab in the case. (stripped out) always a disappointment when you order something and it isn’t right directly from the manufacturer.

nice looking

it has a real good reciever

with the lowest SWR , powerful small radio, awesome!!

Great radio! I like the small size, fits great on the side of my center console. Good range.
