this is awsome suggest people to buy it to use it i loved it cuz its the best cb on earth
This 4W CB has ALL the basic adjustments to make this a nice working CB.
In addition to killing the in town and out of town power line noise, this cb radio is also the only modern cb (I've tried nearly every model out there today) that can also take out "switching power supply noise" from my laptop charger and my cell phone charger as well!
Just the ticket, one solid unit , Metal not plastic, solid Microphone with the feel of quality like I remember they were in the 70"s
Reasonably cheap, good unit.
Make sure you have an SWR meter to adjust your antenna, I purchased the Astatic PDC1 100 watt SWR Meter after looking over quite a few, this unit works very well and does the job.
If you use your CB to help make a living and required a good solid unit at a fair price this unit is what you need.
You are reading snippets from reviews of Midland 5001Z 40-Channel Mobile CB with Switchable Noise Filter
Although this radio has one of the best noise blankers I've tested in a radio in quite awhile, it also has the worst adjacent channel rejection of any radio I've tested.
The mic "works," but is simply not too great, and - so I was told - made some soft but rather strange noise
Most new CB radios today have a poor noise blanker (they're usually little more than simply an audio filter, which does nothing to block out the actual noise).
Good noise supression, clear transmission signal, easy to install, good audio and pretty fair speaker: Strongly recommend for every one
Great job on creating an awesome noise blanker with this model, Midland!!The controls are also solid and no annoying beeps like you see on newer digital radios today.
