Radio history and overview

The Cobra 29 LTD Classic remains a reference point for familiar truck-style mobile CB controls. It is especially important to distinguish older AM-only units from the 2023-and-later AM/FM versions: the same familiar name covers equipment with different modes. Current manufacturer documentation identifies a 40-channel 4 W radio with a built-in SWR meter, adjustable RF gain and microphone gain, and instant channel 9 access.
