There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Update: Yesterday I was in a higher area (in my pick up using the Midland 18-2442 antenna) talking to a base station 7 miles away! He said the radio sounded good! So after using it for a few weeks now, I'm very satisfied and really glad I bought it!
I have had zero issues with the fit/finish of the product. No snags or struggles when switching between battery pack to the mobile adapter. The controls are all easy to use and have a good feel to them. I have had a few CB's in my day, and I'd say it's safe to claim this is just as good as any of the standard CB's you could mount in a car. The output power is the same, so there is really no difference. Everything else is antenna and, if you're in a car, good ground plane and antenna/SWR tuning.
I have read a lot of reviews saying that the distance is poor, reception is poor etc. Most of these are probably people that aren't using a tuned antenna, or are expecting the full CB band range capability out of the rubber antenna that comes with this unit. Nothing against Midland at all here, because almost every handheld CB comes with a small "rubber ducky" antenna, but those things are good for very short range only. If you're going to use it in the handheld configuration and want some decent range, get the Cobra HA-TA handheld CB antenna. When fully retracted it is 1 inch taller than the rubber one, but it extends to 27 inches and it works very well. Note to people new to this - if you're using it in the car but in the handheld mode, you'll be lucky if get more than half a mile of distance for reception and transmission. Since the antenna is in the car, it is shielded by the vehicle. Windows down helps some, but not a lot. If you're going to use it in the car, use the mobile adapter and an external antenna.
For the car, get a decent magnet mount (I recommend either the Lil Wil made by Wilson, or the Cobra HG A 1500. Also, make sure you find a good SWR meter and learn how to tune the antenna. Just Google "How to tune a CB antenna" and you'll find lots of fantastic resources with step by step directions. You'll quickly realize that you don't have to be an engineer to do this! I must stress, if you use this in a vehicle with an external CB antenna you MUST tune the antenna/SWR. If you don't, you will most likely not be happy with the performance and you may damage the CB internal electronics. This is true with ANY CB radio used with an external antenna. With the provided rubber antenna or aftermarket extendable antenna in the handheld configuration, tuning is not a factor.
If you can, go with a fiberglass antenna. The best of the best is a 102 inch steel whip, but let's face it - that's not practical for most of us so a good, reputable brand fiberglass antenna in 3 or 4 feet, if you can manage, will work wonderfully (again as long as it's tuned and properly installed).
This is an excellent radio. I've also seen some comments from people who drive trucks for a living that are using this thing. With that, as well as my own personal experience, I would highly recommend this CB radio.
