Two Way Radio Cobra

I just bought a Cobra 19 Ultra III CB Radio and a pair of Cobra CX80 Two-Way Radios. Will these work together? if so, on what channels? and what kind of antenna should i be looking at for the CB Radio, is http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.d o?product_id=11974008&findingMethod= rr a good one?

Thanks in advance!

no, they will not talk to each other.

The Cobra 19 is on "CB radio", 26.96 MHz to 27.45 MHz. These are used on AM and you can talk to other CBers and truck drivers.

The CX80 is on "FRS radio". These are on 462/467MHz, they use FM and you can talk to other FRS users in your immediate neighborhood.

The antenna you show will work on the Cobra 19 just fine. It is not the best antenna, but it will work.

If I buy American two way radios eg- cobra radios, will they work in the uk?

Cheers

They will work between each other, but the frequency they are on is not for public use and you will interfere with emergency services, when they trace you, you will be heavily fined. You may also cause a loss of life.

I am looking to buy Cobra 29-LTD 2-Way 40-Channel CB Radio. i was just wonder what the two way part means. what is the differnce between the other cb radios

All CB radios by definition are "Two way" which means they both receive and transmit.

For example, I am very interested and will most likely purchase a new 2-way radio (GMRS/FRS), specifically the Cobra LI-7200/2WXVP GMRS 2-Way Radio Value Pack that boasts a 27 (that's TWENTY-SEVEN) mile range, when, in fact, from reading many, many reviews, the most that has been reported is maybe 2 miles?

Now, I understand that there are MANY factors involved, such as urban usage - buildings, houses, cars, trees, etc., but seriously, that is more than a 75% difference. Where are "they" coming up with those astronomical figures? Are the using the ocean, or airspace as their testing grounds?

You know, Walt Disney World covers about 47 square miles which is about the size of San Francisco or two Manhattan islands - so what good are these or any other two-way radios?

If you mention skiing in the mountains, don't bother cause I was using a 2-way radio while skiing in Colorado and took a wrong turn and ended up literally in the streets of town and I couldn't contact any of my party for assistance which led me to walking 2 miles in my rented ski-boots just to find a bus. Now, I am from Florida and let me tell you, we aren't used to ski boots when they are attached to skis, so don't think us boys down here like them any better now.
In my title, I meant to type "boast", not "boat".
A GMRS license? Yeah, right. Then why don't they include one (or information)when you purchase any GMRS 2-way radios that are for sale to the public? The ones I am referring to are the maximum power output allowed by law.

Click below for the 2-way radios I am referring to:

"marketing hype"? Seriously, it sounds to me like "false advertising", in which case, a lawsuit should be filed, eh?

Pure marketing hype. Manufacturers want to sell radios. They inflate their numbers drastically. You will not make more than 2 miles. I can't even make 27 miles with outdoor GMRS antennas.

License requirement information is in the manual of every radio. Yes, a license is required for the GMRS frequencies.
