eanted to up grade from my cobra 29.
Was looking for another radio to buy. I'm using my own wire and 2 browning 78 antennas. My cobra I think shorted so it works here and there but in receiving well just when I key the mic no one seems to hear me. Also have an astatic mic that I thought maybe would reserve that problem, didn't.
What's a next step up from a cobra? I was looking into Stryker but wasn't sure.
Just looking for some advice

Stick with the 29 and get the antenna system fixed.
rabbiporkchop and RogerThat72 Thank this. -
What cobra would you reccomend -
Just get another one ... They are all around and rather cheap.

How much...including shipping?

Cobra 29 Classic is on sale for $80 at T/A truckstops during July 2015 and probably August 2015.

I also suggest keeping with the Cobra 29 or 25, since you're familiar with their use (25 is a little smaller and just doesn't have the SWR function).
Down the road <groan!> you'll be better off with a "purpose-built" CB radio -- like those Cobras -- than a typical export that isn't really optimized to work in the CB range.

I would personally recommend a Cobra 148. Because it has a regulated power supply.

Ever since it hasn't worked the same still recieved but I guess I did something to make it not be able to send out anything when I key and talk....
