Product Description

Whatever your outdoor activity, Cobra's compact handheld CB radios are a great way to stay in touch with friends. Complete access to 10 National Weather Channels (7 NOAA and 3 International) for the latest weather information. And there are no license or service fees! Cobra's HH ROADTRIP incorporates SoundTracker, a patent-pending technology that dramatically improves the sound quality of the transmission and reception of CB radio signals.

Cobra's aptly named HH Road Trip 40-channel handheld CB radio is ready to travel anywhere you do, bringing access to 10 NOAA weather channels and a four-mile range from its 4 watts of power. The onboard SoundTracker system reduces audible noise and interference by up to 90 percent over non-SoundTracker devices. Whether you're using it for emergency backup or convenient conversation between vehicles or camps, the HH Road Trip brings you quality CB communication.

High/low power switch reduces power consumption, extending battery life during spells when high power is not required. The unit operates on nine AA batteries (alkaline or Ni-Cd; batteries not included), or runs off your vehicle battery through the supplied DC cord with cigarette-lighter plug. An included magnet-mount antenna ensures maximum range.

The Citizens Band lies between the shortwave broadcast and 10-meter Amateur radio bands and was established by law in 1949. The Class D two-way communications service was opened in 1959. FCC regulations permit only "transmissions" (one party to another) rather than "broadcasts" (to a wide audience); advertising is not allowed on CB Channels because it is considered "broadcasting." Citizens Band (CB) Radio operators are not required to obtain an FCC license to operate their CB equipment or provide station identification. Nevertheless, an operator of a CB radio station is still required to comply with the communications act and with the rules of CB Radio Operation.

Customer Reviews

Served our purposes well.: The Cobra HH Road Trip was perfect for our use. We specifically purchased it for a road trip with our Corvette Club. Even though the magnetic antenna didn't adhere to the fiberglass body of the car, the standard antenna worked well as long the range was relatively small. Our nineteen car "convoy" stayed in contact and the reception… More reviews

HH Road Trip CB: This is a great handheld for short distance use. It works well in convoys or groups when used with the base antenna. I would not recommend it trying to transmit over a long distance. Excellent emergency unit.… More reviews

A necessary tool: I got stuck on the freeway, for seven hours, one winter. If I had had this CB I would have known to get off and take a side road and not get stuck with all the rest of the traffic. Takes 9 AA batteries. Good price.… More reviews

DOA: DOA (Dead on Arrival). Difficult to issue an opinion if the device will not move off channel 1. It's worthless. … More reviews

not something I would recommend: This is not a good cb the engine noise sucks and I can only hear one side of a conversation and only if that is the next block over. However I did try a better antenna and it worked a little better still only one sided I think it's only good for the wifes car if she is following you someplace with no cell service. More reviews
