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

Easy to install since has plenty long electrical cord. Controls (vol, squelch, channel) just like units ive used before. Still lots of trucker info available

Some off-roading friends of mine recommended, as a first time CB user, for me to buy this Uniden along with a good antenna. They were right, it is a spectacular radio and it appears the price on Amazon was the best around. They use 510 XLs for off-roading with ± a mile or so between them on the trails. Fresh out of the box, the quality of this Uniden is clear - clean, solid metal construction with robust knobs and cable connections. Bright LEDs on-screen, good squelch control, and clear led level indications as well. On the back, there is a connector for the antenna, red/black for power (with in-line fuseholder and fuse) and then an extra port for a Uniden external speaker. I would recommend the speaker for folks who mount the CB down low. I have mine mounted overhead so the 510 XLs built-in speaker fires down at us passengers... it is plenty loud enough for me in my diesel pickup and I dont even have to turn it up half way. But if you have yours mounted down low, the carpet may absorb the sound which makes the external speaker worthwhile - and they are not expensive at all. I plugged in the Uniden Pro 510XL unit in with a Wilson 1000 Mag mount base loaded antenna. The antenna is on my crew cab pickup roof, which makes for an excellent ground plane. Out of the box, I was up and running the first day I hooked it up. I could hear some conversations quite clearly, seemingly better than a clear telephone conversation. Of course, there is always chatter and conversations in-between folks talking if you are monitoring busy channels. Like any CB unit, the antenna (or antennas) makes all the difference. Most cars and pickups with an available flat mounting surface (trunk lid or roof) would do well with a Wilson brand antenna, other cars requiring side mount might accept a full whip well. Either way, get a good quality antenna and have a friend with an SWR meter help you tune it to maximize performance and avoid burning up your radio. I did not burn up my radio the first time without tuning, but with tuning I was able to bring the antenna right into the perfect safe SWR range. This is a highly recommended unit if you are just getting into CB, especially if you do not need all of the features of more expensive or complex units. The Pro 510 XL just gets the job done and does it well. Its a Rock Solid CB radio.

This was a very good product sound Clarity and everything was good range is a little low but that comes with your antenna not your radio

We have two of these we are running in our Armada and Jeep.....a very functional and easy to set up CB that has great/clear quality with loud speaker. If you are running an open top jeep you will need an external speaker though. After owning a couple Cobra CBs, this one is the best by far! My Cobra CBs include the Cobra 19 and Cobra 75...the cobra 19 was not very loud and had issues getting a good SWR with it, whereas the Cobra 75 was an all-in-one hand mic unit but wasnt loud enough to hear anything and when talking most everyone stated I was coming in garbled. For the comparable costs, I wouldnt buy a Cobra again and will stick with Uniden!

So far, so good. Got the unit set up this afternoon, & reached out about 11 miles with first contact. This is from the house, with a boat antenna on a mast over the house. (Yes, it is a CB antenna). Im fairly impressed for the $$.

Had these in the past great value

I bought this radio for my Jeep because I wanted something small and cheap for it. Dont want to cry if it gets ripped off because its in a Jeep. Uniden has been around for a very long time making CB radios and this little rig has not let me down. The functions are simple and easy to use. No frills but it gets the job done and its well made and sturdy. Got an added bonus out of it the other day, I was able to shoot skip from the Hawaiian Islands all the way to North Carolina. Goes to show that you dont need big power and a fancy radio in order to do that. For $33.69 and free shipping you cant go wrong with this radio if you want/need something small due to space constraints.

Got one for my Jeep and I have no complaints. Works well, install is easy as it could be. Be sure to pick up an SWR meter if you dont already have one.

I needed a CB radio in my work truck for yard communication, so I went with this. Ive been a truck driver for 24 years, so of course I have a big radio that has been modded, but those require fiddling to get them to work correctly. Now that Im doing local work, I just dont have time to mess around with it. This radio, with an 18 foot coax cable, and a basic Francis fiberglass whip antenna is simple, cheap, and works every time. No hassle at all.

Nothing to dislike everything to like. Perfect for Jeeps and side by sides.
