This was the first of a new generation of CB radios and was the first 80 channel radio available. It's design and construction are more like an amateur radio than CB. Originally these cost £125!

We are now into something like the Mk.5 version, each version having subtle improvements made. This new version can easily be identified because the backlight on the display is now green rather than orange.

One of our most popular radios - it has just about every feature you could ask for and at a very reasonable price!

It's compact size, sensitive receive, and just about every feature you could ask for make this the most popular handheld we have ever sold.

Supplied complete with a free "extras" package - consisting of a carry case, cig lighter power lead, slide-on charger/adapter and antenna adapter.

A new compact CB from this well know manufacturer, ideal for anyone looking for a robust basic radio. The radio looks more like a "2-way" than a standard CB.

The radio is "multi-standard" and so will operate on all 80 legal channels in the UK, but can also be used in most EU countries and will operate on AM/FM in countries that permit this.

On test we found the radio to work better than many of it's bigger rivals - the receive audio was clear, the squelch was more positive than many current radios, and the transmitted audio was strong. Overall it is probably the best compact radio currently available!

Features include:

• LED channel display
• Multi frequency - for use in all EU countries
• Standard 4 pin mic plug
• Large simple controls
• Rugged design
• Decent size microphone
• Manual and auto squelch
• Quantity discounts available

A brand new multi-standard radio with a unique CTCSS squelch system, allowing you to have your own "private" channels.

A completely new design, looking more like an Amateur radio than a CB, using the latest SMD technology to fit loads of features into a compact radio.

The CTCSS facility allows users of the same type of radio to talk to each other without any external interuption - the radio sits there quiet unless someone on the same channel with the same CTCSS code calls you - effectively giving you a "private" channel.

Initial reports are very favourable - with strong clear audio on transmit and a sensitive receiver. The construction of the radio feels superior to others currently available, even down to the slimmer lightweight microphone cable.

If you are looking for something different, this could be the radio for you!

If you only need something basic then this could be the radio for you - minimum features at a minimum price!

But for the same price we can currently offer an 80 channel radio with more features?? 

A combination of the look of an old style CB (large controls, LED display, signal meter) and new technology (microprocessor based circuit), makes this a popular radio.
The "night watch" backlit display is a unique feature and it is also the only current CB to have a built-in swr meter

The only real disadvantage of this radio is it's size - you need plenty of room if you are using it mobile.
