  • As Advertised, & Thus An Optimal Investment + Subsequent Favorable 'Field Testing' Update ...
Style: HHRT50 Road Trip
As advertised. In summary - Because I have thoroughly tested this radio, I now know that it provides my family & me an EASY TO USE (including a well written, organized & illustrated Manual), portable, proven/stable technology, easy to keep energized means of local (i.e., "line of sight" to the horizon) e-m-e-r-g-e-n-c-y communication. Based on the above (and with lots of hands on experience with other popular means of family communication, such as GMRS & FRS) this is, for us, an optimal investment. Update – Jan. 28, 2025: Wanted to offer the following FAVORABLE ‘field testing’ FINDINGS to those, i.e., NOT ‘everybody’ : ), who would want THIS GRANULAR LEVEL OF DETAIL. This is based on running the Cobra HHRT50 (aka HH50WXST) CB thru the following test cycles: 6 Charge mode and then 6 thru Listen, aka Receive, mode, using NiMH batteries + 1 test cycle thru Listen, aka Receive, Mode using Alkaline batteries. None of the following field testing has to do with Transmit mode, or Scan mode. CHARGE mode: Used a well known / proven brand of NiMH 2500 milli-Ampere hours (aka, “mAh”) AA batteries. Number of hours to Charge averaged 11. This 11 hours statistic does NOT include the 1st full Charge which took the characteristically longer NiMH 1st Charge cycle, which in this 1st Charge case took 28 hours. LISTEN, aka, RECEIVE mode: (a.) NiMH: Used the above NiMH 2500 milli-Ampere hours (aka, “mAh”) fully charged AA batteries. Number of hours of usage averaged 28 for the batteries to deplete. (b.) Alkaline: Used a fully charged well known / proven brand of NON-rechargeable 2500 milli-Ampere hours (aka, “mAh”) AAs. Number of hours of usage was 22 for the batteries to deplete. I only cycled thru THIS specific test using Alkaline one time, thus, this number, 22, is not an average. Associated technical FAVORABLE experience to be reported: I found the Cobra User Manual *, cover to cover, to be well organized, illustrated & written. Meanwhile, the User Manual does not include the Ampere consumption rates in the various modes. I recognize that only a small percentage of CB users would actually ever want this level of detailed information. In my case, I did, hence, I posted related questions on this to "Amazon Q & A." & learned as follows. Want interested readers to know that with in less than 2 days I received the needed & helpful information directly from the Cobra Manufacturing Support Department (along with their professionally required responsible statement: “These values are estimates and may vary based on specific conditions and settings”). For all of the above, I am MOST appreciative; here were their replies that some Review readers might want to know: Charging mode Amperes consumption rate: 500 – 1000 milli-Amperes, depending on usual variables. Listen, aka Receive, mode Amperes consumption rate: 100 – 150 milli-Amperes, depending on usual variables. Transmit mode Amperes consumption rate: On “high power” 700 – 900 milli-Amperes, depending on usual variables. ______ * Cobra Part No. 480-1088-P-001, Version D (Publish Date: 2017). ... show more

  • Awesome handheld radio!
Style: HHRT50 Road Trip
I was a very active CBer in the 70's and 80's with mobile units and a base station so I'm not new to them. I'm retired and on the road a a lot as a snowbird from MA to FL, and annual trips to our Nova Scotia farm. I still have my older CB but there is not a convenient place to install them in today's nice vehicles so I researched handheld CB's a LOT! I decided on this one and I am very happy I did. Granted, I only received it just today (2 day delivery). To be ready when it arrived I also ordered rechargeable batteries (not included and I recommend) , an AC power cord to quickly recharge them (not included, which you can do while in the radio), and a telescoping antenna. Well they all arrived well packed at the same time. Knowing CB's I had it out of the package (actually the hardest part lol) and up and running within within 15 minutes. Installation is a breeze and the manual is perfect for beginners to understand. Turned it on - with the rubber ducky - and sat back to read the manual while it scanned. In no time it was talking to me quite clear. Turned on the Sound Tracker System, which we didn't have in the "old" days and the the voice clarity was great. Played with the telescoping antennae and got even more channels, and some skip channels also from who knows where!! Have not tried the magnetic mount yet but will be using it on our way back up north in a couple weeks. I know I'll have no problem getting helpful info from the truckers. Don't pay any attention to reviews that say they get no response on channels and it was a waste of money ... they just don't understand the CB world. I'm very happy with it and would definitely recommend it. ... show more

  • Pleased husband!
Style: HH50WXST
My husband is a daily big truck driver who always uses a cb radio in his big truck. While traveling which we do often he hated not having a cb in my car. I bought this for him for Christmas and it’s been in my car since! Great range and reception. Size is not bulky! Lasts a long time, great sound quality! He is thrilled when having this on trips! Also bought other accessories for it like antenna and such. Those worked perfectly for this hand held cb. Must have!!! ... show more

  • Simply doesn't work
Style: HH50WXST
A friend and I bought these to communicate with each other off-roading in our Jeeps. When I first picked up the box I thought there'd been some kind of mistake because it was way too light. I expected to open it and find the wrong item in the box. It was this, the CB in a plastic blister pack like you'd see hanging from a peg at the end of a store isle. That should have been my first clue. The 9 AA batteries you have to put in it weigh more than the radio, and it's seemed to me over the years that light electronics are bad electronics. We tried testing communications, and after verifying via text that we were on the same channel and weren't squelched to death, we had nothing, no communication from houses roughly 200 feet apart. We walked outside to get away from the admittedly harsh wifi interference, and we could finally start to hear each other when we were effectively line-of-site. Maybe 50' apart. Out on the road it was just as bad. Literally the radios didn't work unless we were practically right next to each other. The Jeeps could be within sight of each other on open highway, but by the time we were more than 100' feet apart there was no communication. Zero. Off-roading they were no use. No warnings from the lead Jeep, no requests for stop from the trailing one, we could never talk to each other unless we were close enough to just shout. Don't buy this CB, I've had little $20 UHF "walkie talkies" that worked lightyears better. Very disappointed. ... show more
