> 3 dayVendor (Amazon associated seller) waited 4 days to ship. Used cheap shipping - in short the item arrived 2 weeks after it was ordered. But the radio is great - with it had a SWR meter and some of the changes were easier. If you have space in your truck/car get a larger unit with more features. If you are space limited this one is perfect.

> 3 dayThis is one amazing CB... All the bells & whistles plus good reliable performance. The weather feature works great, but only after I changed the antennas to Wilsons. Original Firesticks didnt get good reception for the weather channels. Built in SWR calibration is also fantastic. 7 selectable day/ night colors too. Too much trouble with Cobra units, so its Uniden for me now.

> 3 dayGreat radio for vehicles that have limited areas to mount, I installed mine in a 2001 Cherokee. These are small in size in comparison to others but have many of the features I was looking for in a CB. The lighting is bright and the letters are large and with a 102 whip antenna this thing reaches out. The vendor was fast shipping and arrived very well packaged. The only reason for a 4 star is no radio is perfect.

> 3 dayI purchased this unit in February of this year. It is being used as a base unit with a dedicated power supply and proper bus grounding. Initially the reports were low modulation unless I held the mic closer to my mouth. Now, after 5 months I almost have to place the mic in my mouth to get adequate modulation SWR 1.2 to 1, Full mic gain using the controls on the radio and antenna / coax is good using a antenna analyzer....need help. I dont want to send back, otherwise good rig.

> 3 dayi got this for my 2013 jeep patriot. it looks great and works great. i put it right on the passenger side of the gear shift and the mic went on the shelf above the glove box. I got a few good radio checkes when i used it and i got a road trip coming up soon so ill post how it goes. but its also easy to use and the self dignosins thing works great told me what i had to fix so its great cuz i had a short 18 in and i could not get a good range with it so i changed it out for a 3foot and works great.

> 3 dayAbsolutely amazing. Came in on time and is just perfect. I love all the settings that you are able to change. Very easy to setup as well. This is my first cb radio and I wasnt 100% sure if this was the one I wanted but Im glad I decided on this one over the competition, this one is just amazing.

> 3 dayBeen doing CB for about 35 years. Not constantly jawing, more of a lurker. Had several units in the past. Ranger, Cobra, Uniden (Bearcat) et al. This is by far the most advanced, easy to set up and generally polite CB I have ever owned. Color changing display keeps my OCD in check by matching my HAM radio and dash light colors. One small issue to be aware of is that the weather reception is spotty. Best to listen while stationary if you are in a fringe area.

Greater than one weekThis thing is really big. If you have a Tacoma, you will be hard pressed to find an installation spot for it. I never hooked it up due to its size. Looks like it has a bunch of features. I returned it to Amazon and purchased the President Bill.

> 3 dayWorks well and no knobs for people to mess up. I like the channel scan function as I frequently haul to facilities that use certain channels and its easy to forget to change it from one to the next. I still have to change it to talk on the right channel, but I atleast I will hear everyone I need to.
