Very reliable.
(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Feb 24, 2002 (Modesto, CA USA)I've had my Cobra 29 for over five years now. It's been in four different trucks, and traveled over 500,000 miles with me. Once I added two wilson antennas and a power mic, I can get out over four miles on a good night. My personal record is a line of sight 130 miles from a mountainside. I love it. I was thinking of getting a galaxy, but why? I have a great radio here.

A Good Radio...
(5 out of 5) by Sean Farrell on Apr 16, 2005 (Charlotte, NC United States)I recently bought and installed this radio in my truck, and I have not had any problems yet!!! A few minor details are the noise blanker seems really sesitive (sometimes when it is on I do not receive any traffic) but that is about it. I enjoy Cobra products, this is my second radio (I just traded up from a 25NWXT), I have a Cobra HG2000 Antenna, and I am waiting on a Cobra Mic for my radio. So far no problems with any of it and I hope to have none down the road!!!!!

High quality, works great, good enthusiast model
(5 out of 5) by A. Wright on Oct 23, 2007 (Maryland)Potential Pros:
Works great
High quality
Well Made
Weather And CB
Able to be calibrated
ST technology makes nearby transmissions easier to hear without messing around with squelch
knobs have a cool "old school" feel
Potential Cons:
Very Large (bigger than a car stereo)
Somewhat cheap microphone
Enthusiast features - Need to know some CB concepts to use it (not for absolute beginners)

Excellent CB!
(4 out of 5) by UPS Dude on Nov 24, 2007 (USA)Awesome unit, does everything!
Only drawback is if (like me), you have to have it off to your side, there are too many controls. I don't think this would bother anyone who can mount it nearby and facing them.

Excellent Mobile CB Radio
(5 out of 5) by Robert Bolling on Sep 3, 2008 (Orlando, FL USA)This is an excellent radio for anyone interested. I have used every function, including the PA, and it performs marvelously. The "night watch" feature is very handy, basically the entire face glows and has an adjustable intensity. I have used a few uniden's and a few other cobra CB's and this is my favorite so far.
