Doesn’t really work that well the 75 hand held CB Radio doesn’t get out at all. It’s kind of hoping to talk to the other drivers when they come into the yard, but doesn’t really work whatsoever but thank you anyway.
You can mount it on the dash or side window and with the rubber duck antenna and listen to the trucker channel, even talk on it. You can add a magnet mount antenna on the roof to get more range. You can add the spare battery pack and take it in the woods for hiking or bicycle riding or fishing and still talk to your buds. Just use low power to extend battery use. Or just cruise the freeway and listen to the nationwide DX channels like 6 or 28.
Found this at a garage sale unopened and 8 and sure glad I did. This radio can easily get all needed channels and the ability to receive weather alerts is great I got this with all the accessories and the rechargeable batteries holder is a must. Over all I highly recommend this radio to all people
The range isn't that good,even with the accessory antenna. It gets the weather channel well, but overall it's disappointing
