The Good
This is a great CB for a Jeep. The big difference that
separates this CB from the rest is that almost everything is
integrated into the handset, channel controls, volume,
squelch, and other goodies. There is a small part that
mounts in an inconspicuous location that the handset,
antenna, and power supply attach to. There is
provision to attach an external speaker to help increase the
sound clarity in a noisy Jeep.
The Bad
With everything integrated into the handset it's easy to
accidentally change channels, change volume, or bump other
controls. The little speaker in the handset is
sometimes hard to hear from in a noisy Jeep roaring down the
road, this is easily remedied with an external speaker.
One more thing, the handset can get pretty beat from being
dropped and bouncing around the Jeep's floor on the trail.
A broken handset with this CB means a new CB is needed.

Performance
It is convenient having the controls in the palm of your
hand. It saves from reaching for the volume or
squelch. The CB's Soundtracker feature is nice, it
picks up and enhances transmissions and reduces background
noise. The CB's reception and transmission quality is
excellent. A usual overlooked element in CB
performance is a quality antenna. Using a quality
antenna tuned appropriately will enable a CB to function to
it's best. For questions on CB antennas see FireStik's
online
antenna library.
