    Will talkback work if the cb is unable to transmit (due to high SWR)?

    Im not sure if my cobra 29 lx is defective or i need a new antenae. the digital SWR meter seems irratic in cal and swr modes while adjusting the antenae height.

    PA works on 2 different mics.

    The answer to your question is no. The basic function of talkback is to hear your audio while transmitting on the radio.

    The internal swr function of the radio isn’t very reliable. It’s best to use an external swr meter to adjust your antenna.
