I used this CB a few weeks ago during an off-road rock crawling run out in the Mojave desert, just outside of Barstow, CA (one of the last known hangouts of the Manson Family). Without the external antenna, the CB worked great. from Amazon.com The main use for my hand held is to communicate with other cars on long road trips. This hand held was very versatile when it came to communicating in short range. from Amazon.com I got one to be used every weekend for off road activities. it works fine in outdoor activities when you know a friend is close or you are close to a road or highway in which trucks are common things. from Amazon.com I tested the Cobra hand held CB on California Rt. 99 today. from Amazon.com I bought 2. One of them gets used everyday for work and has been most helpful and is working fine. The other was purchased for trips and boating. It also works fine and was useful for the purpose in which it was purchased. from Amazon.com This handheld CB works great on all channels, but only for short range. The external antenna helps a lot when traveling by car. from Amazon.com cobra cb radios are the best radios i think. amazon again beat all others on price@easy deals. from Amazon.com BUT, I AM AFRAID THIS ONE WILL NOT BE DEPENDABLE. I AM NOT ASKING FOR THEM TO BE RETURNED OR FOR A REFUND JUST LETTING YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMERS KNOW OF A VERY WEAK PRODUCT AND I COULD NOT RECCOMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE. COBRA WAS THE TOPS IN RADIOS BUT SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED TO THE QUALITY. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING; from Amazon.com I "sort of love" this Cobra Roadtrip CB gadget, but only when I'm home and when I can use my both hands on it. It's a bit cumbersome to use while driving and it's too heavy to handle, especially if you have batteries installed in it, so for that purpose I recommend buying the external microphone. from Amazon.com That was an expensive piece of junk --- it wouldn't receive even when I was right next to a transmission. I wrote to Radio Shack with a complaint, and they never replied. This Cobra is one fine unit. Even with the inside antenna it performed very well and even better with the magnetic mount external. from Amazon.com
