    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.

    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.
