I treated myself to something i want for my birthday, this is my Cobra 29LTD, I've had this little radio for almost 7 years now, it's got a pretty hefty peak and tune on it, pushing upwards of 70watts, and today i just went and gave it a facelift, along with a new Astatic mic. Anway, just thought others might appreciate the customness of this radio, definately the first one i've seen like it.

nice radio. i've had my 29 for probably 15-20 years now. it's a great radio.

I can't ask for much more as far as price is concerned, it gets out good, receives good, just an all around good radio. Gotta save up a little and get a Wilson antenna for it, i currently run a Francis 4ft fiberglass, pretty good, but the guy at Mesa CB here in Wildwood told me to run the Wilson for best performance, maybe before long i'll be talking to Texas.

hell, i'm still trying to get my Galaxy working like it should. wanna trade? =)

I'm 'somewhat' happy with my Galaxy 949. It transmits good (putting out about 29 watts), but the reception is pretty much crap. I've installed my own coax and Wilson 2000 antenna, but it really didn't help much.

One thing I don't like about it is the side-mount mic. Makes it a SOB to install in the overhead compartment of a Freightliner.

that is a cool looking cb there...but you may wanna open them bills on the counter and pay them!!!hahaha

millersod215 09-28-2009 09:20 PM

Well it was the CB, or the bills, i guess the bills will have to wait another week while i settle in to super trucker mode:) But really, i paid them that afternoon, no worries...........
