cobra does not make a radio w/ hi and low channels they make the 148gtl which hass ssb but not high and low channels, to have high and low you need a 10 meter ham radio like a magnum,superstar,connex,galaxacy

well if you take a cobra 25/uniden 68 or a cobra 29/uniden 78 to just about any tech they can put a viagra board in it which gives you the low and high channels. i run my connex 3300 in my hunting truck but im about to get the board put in my galaxy 959 and run that in my suzuki samurai so i can hunt on that sometimes.

well cobra does make a radio with high and low bands. one is the 150 gtx and the other one is the 200gtx. they have the upper and lower bands but for the money i would get a superstar 121 or a general lee

yep exactly popcorn they were made but like you said they are pos. for a good cheap radio you cant beat a uniden or cobra and if you want low and high bands you cant go wrong with the old superstar 121.

By the time you buy a cobra 29 and have it tuned up and have channels put in it you can buy a good used Galaxy based mobile radio for about the same price and if they are used most of them have already been tuned up!!

yep exactly thats the thing. its gonna cost about 60 bucks or so to get the channel expansion board plus about 80 bucks for a cobra 29. you can get a brand new superstar 121 for 130 and it has the high and low channels already in it. but the most important thing is a good antenna and good coax. 70% percent of the game is antenna. ill see ya.
