 So So...Mar 15, 2010
I don't use the Cobra 75 WXST that often. Its very hard to use. The reception is not that good. I now have some nerve problems in my hand so manipulating the buttons is a bit harder for me now. Seeing and trying to read all the buttons is ahrd too. It has some weight to it, but its not bad. Occasionally it falls or drops down on the floor. I think it is the heavy and hard coated cord that causes that. Its not very flexible, very tightly coiled to.
The NOAH Weather Alert channel is nice . I run a thin wire around the round knob on the back and drape the wire around the head light switch on the dashboard rather than use the CB hanging clip. Sound quality we thought was okay, but we hook up an external speaker as it is mounted up over the centerpillar molding behind the driver seat.
I have about 4 regular CB radio's I use throughout the summer while traveling. Two of them I inherited when relatives died. I probably should of passed on buying the Cobra 57 WXST.
What is nice is the receiver box or what ever its called that you connect the cord to can be hidden under the seat or the dashboard. But the complaint here is the way some of the cars (My Buick) are constructed today to make it impossible to reach under a seat to connect the cord.
Great CB for it's intended purposeFeb 12, 2010
I have been using CB's for over 20 years. This CB is perfect for travelers looking for a CB that takes up little space yet has a lot of features. If you want a CB for road trips, with weather band you should consider the 75 WX.
It has a great scan feature for CB band and 10 weather channels. I have owned the 75 WX for over 10 years now, I have traveled coast to coast with this radio and never had a problem pulling in a weather station anywhere along the trip. This would make a great RV option for a CB or for any vehicle limited on space to mount a conventional CB. Yes, it may not be the best rig for long distance reception or transmission, but so much of that is dependant on the antenna. I use it with a Wilson 1000 magnetic mount antenna with amazing results. The soundtracker feature works great in noisy city areas. If you need a CB for road trips, or where space is at a premium, you will not be disapointed. Surprisingly enough, the built-in speaker works really well, if you need something louder, the radio features a remote speaker jack. I highly recommend this radio for those looking for a good 40 channel CB with weather band.
 Easy install, but hoped for better usabilityDec 27, 2009
Installation was a breeze...I really hoped for better reception and transmissions. I did go to a CB shop after installation to have the Wilson 5000 Roof Top Mount CB Antenna tuned, but I still have less the desired performance. For the most part it serves the purpose of close range communication when stuck in traffic and wanting to know what the hold up is or which lane I need to be in. My biggest complaint is the lack of a RF Gain. It's not bad if you want an easy install without sacrificing space, just don't expect the same quality as the Cobra 29 LTD Classic.
Replaced a 10 year old 75 WXSTNov 20, 2009
My 10 year old unit was working find until one too many cokes were spilled on it. The new unit plugged right in and working fine. I have always used a exterior speak for better sound!
Convenient and compact, easy to use CB radioNov 10, 2009
I purchased this CB radio to use in our motor home. Best features are the compact size and the fact that all the controls can be accessed with one hand. It has a channel 19 button that makes it easy to stay on the "trucker's channel" without being distracted during driving. The sound is good and I am pleased with the performance. Good value for the price.
