- Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2024Style: HHRT50 Road TripPattern: Handheld CB RadioVerified PurchaseI purchased this for a few reasons. I'm into radio, HAM, GMRS, SW, SDR and more. On a radio forum I am on, lot of people were talking about CB making a comeback. In fact it's been a longtime ongoing conversation and how it is making a comeback. I was on CB from about 1972 to the mid 1980's. I purchased this and a Uniden Pro401. I also purchased a Francis Hot Rod CB26 antenna, a better mount and set everything up properly on my truck. I used this and the Uniden on a 4000 mile round trip from Tennessee to Arizona. At home I have kept it plugged in and on and with one radio scanning and one radio on these were the results during the 4000+ mile round trip.
I heard exactly one trucker and two women talk on the CB. The trucker long enough to get directions from a truck stop and two women who only made contact so one could let the other know to call her on her cell. And of course the illegal high power broadcasters out of Nevada that override everything on some channels (23).
People on GMRS were broadcasting constantly to the point I had to turn off my GMRS radio. Unfortunately it appears Citizen Band is not making a comeback, from my experience, this radio is called a Road Trip and that is what I used it for, a 4000 mile road trip. If my experience is any indication whatsoever, no, CB is not making a comeback. The Airwaves are dead.
As far as the radio itself, it is a good radio, solidly built, with batteries in has a nice weight to it, plenty of options and the weather channels work well although I can do the same real time weather on my Digital trunking Scanner or Cell phone.
The radio itself gets five stars, the CB airwaves get zero because almost nobody is on it.
Edit: We just had a major winter storm and received more snow and ice than we have in over three decades. The one day snowfall hasn't seen this accumulation since 1993. We are in the hills and mountains with a lot of trucks coming this direction to get to Knoxville, Chattanooga and further on up to Nashville. Listening to my scanners everything is extremely active with one emergency call after another around the clock. Thought I might turn on this CB to see if Channel 9 is active. Channel 9 (The emergency channel) is extremely active. We have had multiple jackknifed trucks, one rollover and one went off the mountain into the trees. Truckers are using Channel 9 like I have never heard it. We are in the mountains, everything is snow and ice and this is what they call, for us, a once every 25 year storm. so no one expected the conditions to be this bad and off the main highways nothing gets cleared, it has to melt, because we don't budget for storms that only happen once every 20-30 years. so yes the CB is being used heavily to get help on Channel 9.
For normal day to day use, the airwaves are dead. But now, under extreme weather conditions, the truckers are definitely using it and so are some of the people stuck in their homes up on the mountain and plateau.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2024Style: HHRT50 Road TripPattern: Handheld CB RadioVerified PurchaseReceived today. As soon as I turned the unit on, it was an instant blast back to the 70's. This Cobra unit is exactly as I expected it to be. I am in an ideal location to pick up interstate chatter, and I'm also picking up chatter that seems to be coming from a stationary location. Crystal clear sound, understanding word for word, also successfully transmitted a confirmation for a radio check someone was doing out there. Crystal clear communication. Time of day is late afternoon, clear sky, slight breeze, sun is approaching horizon. I'm using the stock antenna that came with the unit, running on nine regular AA Energizer batteries for now. I have not used this in my vehicle yet but I can only imagine everything will be fine. If I experience any changes or incidents with this unit from this point forward, I will update my review. Thanks for never letting me down, Cobra. Still a champion.
UPDATE: Had the same positive results the following morning after my first review. This time I was in a different location sitting in my vehicle. Location was rural, dense woodlands at times, approximately 4 miles from interstate, time of day was around 9:30 a.m., cloudy. As expected from a Cobra unit, this radio continued its reliable performance with clear reception of interstate and stationary chatter, and I must note that I was still only using the stock antenna, not the vehicle antenna. I did not attempt to make any contacts but feel confident it would have done just fine. I will continue updating this review should the need occur.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2020Style: HH50WXSTPattern: Handheld CB RadioVerified PurchaseA friend and I bought these to communicate with each other off-roading in our Jeeps. When I first picked up the box I thought there'd been some kind of mistake because it was way too light. I expected to open it and find the wrong item in the box. It was this, the CB in a plastic blister pack like you'd see hanging from a peg at the end of a store isle. That should have been my first clue. The 9 AA batteries you have to put in it weigh more than the radio, and it's seemed to me over the years that light electronics are bad electronics. We tried testing communications, and after verifying via text that we were on the same channel and weren't squelched to death, we had nothing, no communication from houses roughly 200 feet apart. We walked outside to get away from the admittedly harsh wifi interference, and we could finally start to hear each other when we were effectively line-of-site. Maybe 50' apart. Out on the road it was just as bad. Literally the radios didn't work unless we were practically right next to each other. The Jeeps could be within sight of each other on open highway, but by the time we were more than 100' feet apart there was no communication. Zero. Off-roading they were no use. No warnings from the lead Jeep, no requests for stop from the trailing one, we could never talk to each other unless we were close enough to just shout. Don't buy this CB, I've had little $20 UHF "walkie talkies" that worked lightyears better. Very disappointed.
