Uniden BEARCAT 880 CB Radio with 40 Channels and Large Easy-to-Read 7-Color LCD Display with Backlighting, Backlit Control Knobs/Buttons, NOAA Weather Alert, PA/CB Switch, and Wireless Mic Compatible

We bought two of these in March of 2019. Out of the box the displays were way to dim to be readable in normal daylight conditions. One of the two has had the display fail all for a small corner. These units have been well cared for and theres no reason a cb should have this sort of issue. Its not like we are launching the space shuttle here. Its just a radio. The same unit that has no display just recently stopped transmitting and now only receives. Needless, to say I am shopping for a replacement and I wont wast money on another Uniden product.

Love the radio not to bad to function. Cons mic gain poor mic durable but not enough power

Installed in a C6 Corvette and it works like a champ right out of the box. I have not used a lot of features yet, but on a couple of road trips it has been easy to use and works very well. Installed with a custom Firestik antenna and antenna cable assembly tailored to the car, and the SWR readings on a separate meter were great the first time I turned it on.

So this CB does so much! It has a lot for the value. Works great, was easy to install, like that you could go online and review all the things that you are capable of doing.

Bought this to replace my Cobra 25 Classic which kept acting up but havent used it yet cuz now my Cobra works fine ( ?! ) because I went back to using the factory mike Im guessing. Got a good deal on it so I wont return it. Im sure the Cobra wont last forever. Did hook it up briefly to test it and it works great. Darn Cobra...

Ive owned this unit for a few years now and most of the time it has worked very well. Unfortunately, I live in the Arizona desert and after sitting in a hot vehicle the unit stopped transmitting and the screen has mostly faded out. This is really disappointing because I really enjoyed using it when it worked.

I bought this radio to put into my 80s Toyota, under my stock-sized 1-DIN deck. With MINOR trimming to the bezel with a dremel and some very light fabrication, it fit PERFECTLY into the lower radio spot. Originally, I bought this radio for this reason, and only required the WX-band feature and knew nothing about Uniden radios (Ive always bought and been satisfied with Cobras 29 series) This unit has changed my perspective 100%, however. Price point, quality, and features put it squarely in the quality range of the 29-LX series radios with far easier to use features and benefits, while being cheaper as of Q2 / 2023. Notable is the 4-pin to 5-pin handset adapter included, and the built in SWR/CAL features. Without being peaked/tuned, Im getting about 5mi of range off a 3 Firestik/Firering combo with a SWR of 1:3. All with an install that looks near-factory optioned. If youre considering it, buy one.

Out of the box I couldnt get a radio check at all the truck stop at the base of the grape vine. When I got to Vegas, I saw my cb guy Irishman, and for 40 bucks he made is awesome. Works great, he pulled out stuff on the mic and opened the unit and added some stuff and POW it is excellent. So plan on upgrading when you get one.

I am very happy with this CB!!! I paired it with the wireless microphone that bearcat makes... Makes spotting on the trail ultra nice!! Take the CB with you and still have the quality benefits of a base station in your rig!!!

Great
