cb radio with bluetooth??

I was looking at sparky's site last night and he sells this radio tuned up. still with stock mic though. If the mic is that good I would be real surprised as cobra has never made a decent mic in the past

 

Parkboy,

did you not like it?

 

I recently bought one from Sparkys CB Shack. I got one with the STEALTH tuneup. Does 55 watts and receives great. I love being able to hear my phone over the noise of the truck.

 

Yes i like it especially like Elktawa said being able to hear over the truck noise. The external mic is a great addition also so you dont have to talk into the mic but they dont seem to have those available anywhere i guess i just got lucky. The reason im selling this one is because i got such a great deal on it that i bought two. Figured i could sell the other on ebay. The thing works great and all i have it hooked to is the stock antenna on my freightliner. I need to get a better antenna but im not sure which is the best anttena to buy. Any suggestions?

 

What is a stealth tune up?

 

I don't know where the word "stealth" comes from (maybe brand name or something), but if its doing anything CLOSE to 55 (prob more like 45) it prob has better finals installed.

 

problem with an upgrade like that fuses are likely to blow, the board isnt meant to handle that power... and when a fuse blows people will replace it with a heavier fuse, and burn holes through the boards.... :-/

if you want a radio that will do that much go with better than basic cobra... im sure everyone else will make some bluetooth radios soon. i like the idea a lot, but wish their was one with sideband

 

These are the upgrades. 1 New mosfet final installed. 2 A swing kit. 3 High low power settings. 4 Receive boost. 5 Filtering for bleedover. 6 Large caps for line noise. 7 Audio ckt mods to make the radio loud and clean. 8 On/off switch bypass for less voltage drop.

 

no one can hear me on mine, i had to buy a wired headset, which is pretty cool, except i have to be sitting in the drivers seat

but the suggestion of an external speaker is a good one, my wife speaks very low, that is no longer a problem

i called cobra to tell them that the mic is not picking up my voice, they hung up on me twice because they couldnt hear me.........nuff said

 

ha ha ha! thats funny, them hanging up on you.

but on a side note you were talking into the mic right?
