Cobra 19 MINI Recreational CB Radio - 40 Channels, Travel Essentials, Time Out Timer, VOX, Auto Squelch, Auto Power, Instant Channel 9/19, 4-Watt Output, Easy to Operate, Black

I ordered this CB radio for camping use: road reports are helpful, and the radio can provide emergency communications in areas without cell towers. This compact CB radio is about the size of a margarine box, and it provides easy-to-use full functionality. The radio main controls are an ON / OFF / volume knob, a push button that cycles channel 9 / channel 19 / selected channel, and a hand microphone with PTT switch plus UP / DOWN buttons for selecting channels. The package includes a mounting bracket, a microphone bracket, necessary mounting hardware, and a terse Quick Start Guide (that includes a URL to download the full user manual). The radio has an internal speaker plus a 3.5 mm rear socket to connect an external speaker. The (not included) CB antenna connects to an SO-239 rear socket, and hardwired power leads (with an inline fuse) extend from the radio rear. I terminated the power leads in a (ASIN B08SM6GHMH not included) clip-on DC power standard connector, allowing me to power the radio from a bench power supply or to use the radio in multiple vehicles. Between camping trips the CB radio and a compact magnetic mount antenna (ASIN B097R9HY22 not included) wait in my bugout bag.

Ive used this brand for a long time and was stoked to be able to review this. You have to have it mounted and since we were doing a rear camera for our trailer, we put this in as well. Great price and i like that its small so it doesnt take up hardly any space and you can put it discreetly in a place without much attention unless someones really looking in your car for nefarious reasons.

Me gustó porque es muy compacto y es un radio completo

Broke after 2mo from internal. No response on exchange when I asked for 1

Its perfect and it really does fit anywhere

Easy to install. I got this for my dad because he goes hunting and I wanted him to have backup device just in case

This Cobra 19 MINI Recreational CB Radio is a nice option for a small, compact CB radio - good for off-roading or small spots. The CB Radio has a handheld mic but can also be used hands-free. The kit includes detailed instructions on using the CB radio. However it is set up to be hard-wired. Otherwise, you can buy an after-market adapter to use with a 12V cigarette lighter. You also need to add a CB antennae too. It was easy to get setup and works well. Good option for those looking for a small footprint CB. 3.5 stars.

Cobra has always been a good name in car electronics. You will need to use an antenna with this, and it can be plugged into the cigarette lighter, although I think its not recommended. To hook it up that way. I recommend my friend, breaker, breaker 19. Thank you. God bless you. May the rest of your life be the best of your life. OZ

When you buy this, make sure to budget for mounting hardware and an external antenna, and a power adapter, depending on how you are going to install it. It comes with everything you need to mount it to your vehicles electrical system, but if you want it very mobile, then you might want to buy a power port adapter. We wanted it to use between vehicles for when we go on longer trips, and its really perfect for that if you get a antenna that can be moved but they can withstand highway speeds. It comes with information on how to use it, but thats really very simple. It doesnt come with information on how to really install it which is what you need! Its a good little unit with clear transmission, and the cord is long enough if its in the middle that both passengers in the front can easily use it. Unfortunately a lot of truckers these days are using the internet and headsets to communicate. Theres very little traffic locally here! When we realize this we ask around and thats when we found out that some trucking companies have banned CBS all together-stating that insurance and distracted driving rules wouldnt let them have them. I checked distracted driving laws in Georgia and it allows for CBs. It might be different from state to state.

I love it and reaches contacts for half the price.
