    Anybody have one of these ? With all these new rules about when you can and cannot use a cell phone, I was thinking about picking up the new blue tooth cb but i am wondering if and how well it works. I am thinking an external speaker is neccassary or does it go thru the radio speakers ?
     
    JGordon Thanks this.

    I just searched it online, and it looks like it could be kinda neat. Yup sound comes through cb speaker or an external speaker, one button to push on the cb to answer calls.
    I want one after researching it, But I will wait to see if they make one with the weather channels in it as well.

    I was gonna start a thread about this because I am also curious about this CB. I have been looking to get a new CB but I have been waiting. I saw an article about this and it seems like a good idea. I am just wondering if it will be worth it and if they wont have reliability issues. The lowest price I have seen though is 159$ at flying J.

    Cobra is giving professional drivers one more way to communicate safely and easily with the first-ever CB radio with Bluetooth technology - the new 29 LTD BT. The Bluetooth feature allows drivers a better way to have phone conversations on the road because calls from a mobile phone are synched with the CB radio. A noise canceling microphone allows calls to be heard loud and clear, even over a noisy engine. Incoming audio is routed through the radio's 5-Watt CB speaker making it easy for the driver to hear the caller. The unit also provides one-touch Bluetooth operation, giving drivers the ability to stay focused on the road by answering and terminating calls with the push of one button. An auto-redial feature also allows for one-touch redialing of the last number called.
    The new unit offers 4 Watts AM RF power output, the maximum amount of power allowed by law; Talk Back controls allowing drivers to adjust the desired amount of modulation talk back; a Blue Channel indicator displaying channel selection in cool blue illumination; and Delta Tune which is used to clarify incoming signals. The 29 LTD BT is redefining the CB radio!
