Nice CB August 11, 2008 Well worth the money and is really nice and compact. Built an overhead enclosure for it in my hotrod pickup and it really worked out nice.
Midland cb May 15, 2008 Well i had my midland 1001z cb for only 6 months and i already had 3 problems with it, not the best cb, i replaced it with uniden 520xl cb im happy with uniden, but i grew up with cobra but they been having problems as well. best cbs are uniden in my case
High performance,low price May 13, 2008 Excellent little radio. A radio like this 30 years ago would have cost hundreds of dinero. Amazing performance from a $30 transceiver. I paired it with a Cobra HG-A1500 mobile antenna that I had and I'm on the air. Had contacts within 10 miles with this setup. No complicated setup whatsoever. Just plug and play. Amazon shipped fast and free as usual.
Works, but quality control needs to be better May 2, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
My first unit had bad popping noises that came from a bad microphone connector on the unit. The 2nd unit I received did not have this problem, but when power is applied it starts on channel 33, the first unit was channel 9 which is what it should start on per the manual. So I really feel you could have some issue that is minor that your unit is not perfect.
Also I attempted to use the unit without a microphone attached and it requires the microphone for the internal speaker to work, kinda a weird design. My other complaint with it is that I believe with it powered down (complete power removed) it should retain the last channel you were on. Having to change the channel every time you turn the car on, I take it between vehicles and use a cigarette light and my cigarette light looses power when the car is off. I like things to go off with the car ignition so I don't have to power things on and off every time I get in the car.
The tuning knob is not of the highest quality, it can jump 2 channels when you click it once, and if you don't click it all way it will start running through the channels. But for the price you are getting it for it does seem to receive well with the Wilson Lil Wil antenna. Can't complain too much for the price, Im happy.
great for the price April 19, 2008 Midland 1001Z 40 Channel CB with Channel 9 Switch and PA Got this 3/17/08 and havent used it much but so far works great.I would recommend this to someone looking for a CB..
