The Cobra 29 LTD ST transceiver represents one of the most advanced AM two-way radios ever designed for use as a Class D station in the Citizens Radio Service. This unit features advanced Phase Lock Loop (PLL) circuitry providing complete coverage of all 40 channels. The Cobra 29 LTD ST has a vastly superior receiver which includes noise blanker circuitry and an automatic noise limiter. The receiver also features increased protection against cross modulation and strong adjacent channel signals.
The CB radio has been around since the 1930s. To see that the Citizens Band is still being produced and sold is testament to its reliability and usefulness. Cobra has brought back their version of the CB with this 29-LTD. They've made some nice improvements to the CB you might have used a decade or two ago. Key improvements to this radio include a front panel microphone connector which makes in-dash installation a cinch. Cobra has also provided a nine foot microphone cord so that you keep in touch from a good distance, whether you're located in a truck cab or dispatch office. The final noteworthy improvement are tactile controls for safer, and more accurate, functionality. Other features include: antenna warning indicator, SWR calibration, instant Channel 9, PA capability, dimmer control, switchable noise blanker and RF gain. In a time of seemingly un-ending technological advances, it's nice to see something we created back in the late 1930s is still alive and kicking.

cobra 29:
I haven't hook it up yet am still trying to get one of those wilson 5000 antenna, so I will post more info when I get it hooked up.
A classic that stands on it's merits:
This CB has been considered one of the best for years, and rightfully so. When you get a strong signal, the speaker is loud at full and clear through the volume range. That, I did not expect. The CB also calibrates well to your antenna. Originally I got bad SWR and reception, but I fixed the antenna and got 1:1.2 across all channels. Eventually I'll mount it differently than I do now for better reception.
awesome radio/ excellent service:
Thank you for the radio. I'll be using it in the back country to communicate with other 4-Wheelers. Your service was excellent
Excellant:
I am very pleased with this CB. In my opinion it is better than others I have had that were much more expensive.
