PRO401HH

I had a Cobra before but it had a lot of issues. When I got this one I put it in my car and plugged it in and it's working great. Although it doesn't hold the channel when I turn it off and turn it on It's a pretty good radio.

After doing my research on handheld cb radios I came across this Uniden pro 204hh model and for my portable use this radio fits the best! I watched several YouTube videos about users bench tested this radio and it's outperformed the factory specifications on power output and with the 51" upgrade telescoping antenna perfectly performing therefore I'm very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this h.h. cb radio to everyone and for $59 dollars this is a good price, worth every penny in an emergency! Thank you Uniden and Amazon, great product.

Radio worked fine for 3 uses. Went use it again and it would not power on. I thought maybe me or my wife had not turned it off after the last use. I replaced all the batteries. Still no change. I took the cheap route when I purchased this. My other one that works flawlessly is a Cobra. I will stick with Cobra from now on. My Cobra one I have had for nearly 20 years and it still works like a champ. Just ordered a new Cobra so I will have set.

I've been using this handheld CB radio for about 5 years now. It works well for me, but I had to upgrade the antenna. Something that most people need to understand is that the "rubber duck" antennas that are supplied with these CB radios, while being durable, are very limited in range. Your more classic CB radios that were made in the 70's and 80's would come with a telescopic 4 foot antenna. CB radio requires a long antenna. The CB radio itself does what it can, but you have to help it along with purchasing a better antenna. It's unfortunate, but if you want to get anything better than 1/2 - 1 mile in range, than you'll need to upgrade your antenna. You can get decent ones that will bump you up a few miles more from $17 to $40. Go on YouTube and watch some antenna reviews. There are many who have done the work of reviewing them by practical application, meaning they go out and test different antennas at different ranges, and you get the benefit of those reviews. Regardless of manufacturer these days, all modern handheld radios need antenna upgrades.

This radio seems very well built and designed like all the Uniden products I’ve owned. The sound quality is great, and it takes about 10 seconds to figure out how to use it, it’s very simple. I will say it drains batteries fast, so get the rechargeable batteries for it. Seems to have decent power and range with the right antenna. And the ability to charge the rechargeables with the power cable is neat. Also a great value for the price, can easily be made into a small mobile unit for a car in temporary setups.

These has longer reach than the average walkie-talkies, but not long enough to cover a mile for realistic application.

Works great! 15 months before I had to change batteries! Good reception distance as well.

I remember in the 70's CB radios were the way to go. It actually saved mine and my family's life on a cross-country trip to New York from California. Stuck in Omaha, NE in a blizzard, couldn't get my vehicle started and the CB'ers contacted a tow truck for me to get my bus started. Well nowadays with cell phones CB's are an amusing blast from the past but you can still sometimes get lucky and get a stratospheric skipped signal and hear/talk to someone thousands of miles away. This portable CB is quality and works like a charm and the price amazes me (got it for 40 bucks). Nowadays it's a very high quality walkie talkie so is still relevant. Better to buy this than some .5 watt WT and you get 4 whole watts meaning much more range.
