Uniden PRO510XL Pro Series 40-Channel CB Radio. Compact Design. Backlit LCD Display. Public Address. ANL Switch and 7 Watts of Audio Output. Unique PLL Circuit. S/RF LED Meter. , Black

Bought this radio to set it up in a work van. Adjusted modulation and while the radio sounds great with the stock mic it would not work with any of the power or echo mics I have. they changed the board in the radio , While a great radio for the price and good to have spare. Not the big talker it used to be.4 Stars you cant beat the price..,.conect a ciggarette adapter to it and keep a spare antenna like a mag mount and slap on any vehicle or a friends car for a road trip.

Just purchased 2 of them-spent some time installing into a jeep YJ. With a Firestik 4 antenna-broadcasting (Cobra CB in another jeep for listening) the sending quality was great-crystal clear and no muffling. However, RECIEVING was terrible. Sound was low bass and very muffled. Tried both CBs in one jeep, swapped antennas, etc. to make sure it wasnt one or the other. Both units had the same cheap speaker quality, both sent perfectly. You could hear and understand what was recieved but very poorly. For offroading with the top down and engine revving, probably would be hard to hear. But...there is a built in jack for external speakers so we are going to wire it to the dash radio speakers. (there is no radio, so why not!) and that should take care of it. The second one is going in a 2003 jeep rubicon, and I will have a spare speaker for that. Probably $2.99 at Radio shack to get the jack plugs and it will be done!

Nothing bad to say about this lil guy. Size isn’t everything. Best bang for your buck!

Noise cancelation could be better, but for this price range its unbeatable. Does the job beyond rhat

This radio has already paid for itself. I bought it to monitor traffic conditions when driving the interstate. Only issue I have is when I park next to certain buildings I get a lot of interference. I solve that by simply turning it off until well away from the building. This radio has a very nice compact design which makes it a perfect fit where I mounted in my vehicle. Absolutely perfect for what I needed. Arrived in a timely manner

But there arent a lot of CBers out there so it is hard to gauge the range and overall ability of the unit. But at this point, it powers up and I get enough static and distant chatter to tell me it is reaching out and trying to do its job. Cell phones have replaced CB radios and gone are the days when we all had a CB and loved chatting with friendly truckers! But Im just whining, I also miss my 8-track tapes.

Whats not to like? Radio works. Simple to use.

Very sweet entry level radio. Small, really tough, very well built, smooth, clean. Audio output on this thing is clear and MSSIVE. Full volume it almost hurts on the hears, but what else you could expect from a radio designed to operate in quarries? If you want to start in CB, GET THIS. Or the 520XL pro wich I also own, and is this same guy with a couple of additional features.

These are pretty much the best radios you can buy. They are compact and can be fit between the seats. Have a Wilson 2000 on mine and pick up all around the country and can hear truckers from 10 miles away

Hi I recently purchased for 4 Uniden 510XL CB radios for our 4WD Off-road Club as prizes for our summer raffle. My decision was based on my 4 year personal experience of owning a Pro510XL in my Jeep on Steroids and using it under real world off-road field conditions with no problems what so ever. My fellow club members also always comment how clear my radio transmissions sound to them. FYI I use a tuneable 1/4 wavelength antenna (i.e. firestick). We use CB radio to coomunicate between our vehicles while on the trail, often out of sight of each other and rely on them for safety reasons and emergency communication. With 55+ CB radio equipped off-road vehicles I can unequivocally say that Cobra radios are the worst and often dont last two years. We have about 11 vehicles equipped with various models of Uniden CB radios and I have never heard anyone complaining about theirs. They seem to work all of the time. In my opinion you cant go wrong with a Uniden 510ProXL.Its fool proof and easy to operate without taking your eyes off the trail.Its small size makes it easy to install. I also see that the Radioshack CBs seem to work ok too. Deadbear
