Have you seen the CB Radio section?

You will need to request to become a member first though.

Their both good radio's, Maycom nice modern and small, but the buttons are a bit small when driving and the mics are very unreliable. The Cobra old skool in looks, a fair bit bigger and the soundtracker are excellent. I must admit I used the Maycom for a number of years and I liked it. Both top end radios and both have their advantages, its gonna be down to looks... :D

Not sure anyone has been on the CB section for ages
