    On Amazon, the Cobra 29 LX has 2 models, one is Canadian Compliant and one is not. Yhe only difference I can see is $140.00. Anyone know what it means? Can't find anything on Google.

    Do you need one that is certified in Canada?

    I mean they are the same here as there and the only difference I can see is ... no difference at all. I don't need certified equipment when I go to Canada for anything like a CB or Ham radio and never was asked accept when I came back into the states "you got a license for that radio?".

    I've sold a lot of radios to Canadians by the way.

    I've never heard of it, but Amazon thinks it's worth alot. I thought it meant instead of a roger beep it said "I'm Sorry" ! Sent a pm to the seller, maybe I'll get a response after the long weekend.

    I found out that they are all the same, no difference other than maybe packaging. Amazon is selling that for a vendor who sets the price, nothing else.

    Same seven frequencies are used for Weatheradio Canada and the NOAA Weather Radio.
