Summary: COBRA 148GTL SSB CB RADIO
Comment: Years ago I had two similar radios - also made by COBRA. They performed flawlessly for the 7 years I owned them. I used one in my car and the other at home as a base station. So far this radio performs as well, if not better, than the others. We're using this one in our RV as a back up to our cell phones. I'll do a follow-up down the road when we've had a little more talk time.

Summary: Distorted audio on SSB
Comment: Had the radio for a few weeks before I had a chance to make some SSB contacts and all reported distorted audio. The receive audio sounded good, just the transmit audio has the problem. AM mode works great, with excellent reports. The swr on the antenna was 1.2:1 so there was no problem with the antenna. Since the AM sounded excellent I would not think the problem was with the mic. The internal speaker had some rattle to it so I hooked up an external speaker. The ANL and NB were excellent in my mobile setup. I did a google search and found another report of the same problem.

Summary: Cobra's quality seems lacking
Comment: First unit shipped to me received fine but the transmit audio was terrible. Even with the Dynamike turned up all the way people could barely hear me. Had to literally shout to be heard at all.
To Amazon's credit they sent me a replacement unit 2nd day air. Amazon has been great to deal with, as always.
This second radio seems to transmit fine so far. However, the speaker of this radio emits a constant, low volume, high pitched whine when receiving. The first radio did not have this "feature".
The good news is all of the controls and features seem to work correctly and the noise blanker and automatic noise limiter do a terrific job stopping car ignition noises. I figure I will keep this radio and live with the whine and hope no other problems crop up. If they do I will change my rating.
