Cobra 29 WX NW ST

Yes, I like it. Especially for the WX. But it still goes without saying.


If your antenna's are junk, the radio will be junk.

I like the backlight and I like the WX. That's the entire reason I bought that radio.

 

I loved mine when I had it. The Nightwatch is great if your constantly playing with the knobs, and the weather alert was great. Never been a fan of the sound tracker, I never had it on. My current 29 is a NW ST and its the first 29 I can leave it on all the time and not loose any range. I think its probably the best lowbuck radio on the market. Have it Peaked and tuned, and add talkback and you'll love it. Mine tuned was pushing 35 watts from appalachin ________ (spelling) at the T/A in Knoxville TN. They have always done me right. (havnt been there in years now as I'm not over the road anymore.)

O crank the squelch to max, and use the RF Gain to adjust for static, and replace the inline fuse for a 5 amp....

 

I have had a couple they are nice radios. Both of mine , the night watch feature quit working about two or three years old

 

youll want a tech to put a switch or a dimmer on that

nightwatch they go out easy and its not a led so

before it goes out have it on a switch to turn it off

during daytime
