portable cb radio

cobra
midland
or anyone you know thats good
NOT PORTABLE I DONT WANT IT
thank you

best portable CB radio.....

if your talking handheld, thier is no such thing, i have 6 and they all stink. they need to be held straight up and down and are no good for talking a mile. garbage really. the antenna is no good. if you do want to look into them though i know cobra makes some and midland as well, check ebay they are always on there. best and cheapest place to get handheld cb radios.

if you plan on going from car to car with a radio, they make boxes to plug in your radio too as well as an external speaker, and you plug it into the cig. lighter. they work, and are portable throw it on the seat or flood next to you and your good to go.... obviously attaching a magnet mount antenna to your radio running it out the window and putting the antenna on the roof.

This is just a quick review of the handheld CB radio from Radioshack. It costs $100 and comes with a 5in rubber duck antenna (although a ...

i have a antenna at my house and im wondering wat is the best porable cb radio to get i just want it to talk to other people who have them when im driving so please help me out thanks

cobra 29 is a nice radio and pretty cheap. their are better and bigger, but it should suit your needs... start thinking about your antenna, if you wanna talk well you need more than a radio shack mag mount.

Price: $69.99

Charge jack allows NiCad batteries to be charged without removing them from the radio
High/Low Power Switch Reduces Power Consumption
ANL (automatic noise limiter) and squelch control for improving reception/eliminating noise
Power with nine AA batteries or included cigarette lighter adapter for mobile use
One-year manufacturer's warranty

I dont think anyone does, Ive serviced them for 30 years...just get a small mobile SSB unit, hang it on your belt ,use a small flexable whip antenna, and a common gel-cell 12vdc battery(theyre light, and lots of current), on the otherside of your belt ....should work fine...

Price: $99.95 $59.00

Sound tracker system cuts noise up to 90 percent
Range of up to 4 miles
40 CB channels
High/low power switch reduces power consumption
10 weather channels

well depends on what you mean by scanner
(also 40 channel cb's dont use crystals they are long gone)

what your thinking of when you say scanner, no you can not. their are some CB's out there that will moderate a few select cb channels of your choice.

CB is Citizens band and can only listen to that band. its 27.---mhz for the most part, and cops use something like 155.--- so dont think your ever going to hear them on the cb. cb;s are fun... but not scanners.

I have recently bought a CB radio but i don't want to install it in my car or buy a portable hand held one. All i need is a power source but all of the ones that i found are too expensive. Does anybody know a cheap power source for it.

Radio Shack has 13.8 volt power supplies - you will need one that can supply at least 5 amps:

Sorry, none of them are cheap.
