Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The 1970s Citizen's Band craze is long over, but a new generation ofcompact, powerful radios is luring customers back to this long-rangeservice. With a handheld CB like the Midland 75-810, you can reach other CBusers up to 15 miles away and get instant access to weather and trafficinformation.

A CB radio is great on the road to alert you to accidents and backupsahead. You can also get directions and advice from fellow motorists. Better yet,highway CB-ers get to use cool lingo like, "I've got to feed the bears"(translated: pay a traffic fine to the police).

The Midland 75-810 features a powerful 4 watts of CB output, with apower-saving setting that allows you to operate on 1 watt for short-rangetransmission to save battery power.

Citizen's Band radios like the Midland 75-810 use 40 channels on the AMradio spectrum from 26.965 to 27.405 MHz. You don't need an FCC license tooperate a CB radio, but be sure to follow the basic etiquette of CB use (asoutlined in your manual) in busy areas if you want to avoid getting chewedout on air.

Midland makes tuning your CB easier with its ETR frequency control system,which delivers pinpoint channel tuning and instant access to emergencyChannel 9. The 75-810 also comes with two user-selectable memory channelsand instant access to the last busy channel received.

As a bonus to hikers or drivers, the 75-810 receives all seven NOAA weatherchannels and three Canadian weather channels. Tune in to these channels forconstant weather updates, plus bulletins for severe weather and hazardslike toxic spills, earthquakes, and fires.

View channel and battery information on the 75-810's large LCD witha 10-part meter that gives you accurate information on signal strength andpower. The built-in electronic microphone ensures crisp, clear reception.Plug the included low-profile flex antenna into the antenna jack, whichalso accommodates an optional extended-range mobile antenna. The earphonejack allows you to use an optional external microphone.

Power your Midland 75-810 CB radio with nine AA batteries (not included) oran optional 12-volt DC power adapter for use in cars, trucks, RVs, andboats. An internal jack allows you to charge ni-cad rechargeable batterieswithout removing them from the radio. The unit measures only 6.5 by 2 by2.5 inches.

5.0 out of 5 stars very happy, February 26, 2000
By James Amon (Greenville, SC) - See all my reviews
This is a good item for travel, or camping, or even around the house because of the weather channels. I'm thinking of buying two more for my sons cars! I even use mine at work in the construction field just for the weather channels.

5.0 out of 5 stars Professional Quality For an unbelievable price, February 13, 2000
By Ryan (New york) - See all my reviews
I bought this CB radio about two months ago. i am a CB enthusiast and have been through many radios, i must say that this handheld radio is absolutely the best bet for anyone who is going on a trip or just want to have some fun, it his high powered and unbelievable features for its price. the PTT button or (push to talk button) on it is very nice you don't need much force to push it in and it clicks so u know you are transmitting. The weather radio is nice receives very nicely and for a handheld it gets out pretty far and if you buy an external antenna, u can add at least another 2 miles to the range of this radio. I HIGHLY SUGGEST IT!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Buy!!, April 7, 2001
By R. Wayne Kight (Bay City, MI United States) - See all my reviews
An outstanding CB radio for my Jeep. For under $40, there is no reason to purchase a higher priced model for your portable needs. I would suggest a magnetic roof top mount antenna for increased reception. However, the factory antenna is adequate for 3 to 5 mile reception on level terrain. This model accepts ear buds which greatly extends battery life because you are able to monitor at much lower volume. A must for travelers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabuelous
This product will go through sleet or snow. It has 15 mile range and is a great deal. I can't believe how cheap it was.
