Q: How many channels does this Cobra radio have?
A: This Cobra handheld radio has 40 channels, including 10 NOAA channels.
Q: Is this a police scanner or cb radio? Looking for police/fire department scanner for around $100.
A: You can buy lots of cheap scanners now for about $90.00 but they will be analog models. Since most emergency services now use digital, the analog scanners will be pretty useless. Call your county's non-emergency dispatch phone number, tell them you are buying a scanner, and ask if they are on digital (400 mHz+) or are soon converting to it. Hope this helps.
A: Thank you for your question. We would need more details about the previous device you had, but CB radios, such as the HH 50 WX ST, are generally unable to communicate with train broadcasts due to the fact that they function on completely different frequencies. Train communication systems are designed to operate on much higher frequencies, which have been specifically allocated for railroad operations. In contrast, CB radios operate on a lower frequency band that is designated for citizen's band communication. This lower frequency range is intended for personal and commercial use. As a result of these distinct frequency allocations, CB radios are not equipped to receive or transmit signals intended for train communications. For assistance or if you have any questions, please contact us at 800-543-1608.
Q: do i have to program this cb radio, or can i transmit and receive once i power up?
A: No programming needed on the HH50 CB radio. After the radio is powered up from external 12V power source or installed batteries, press the PTT button on the side panel and talk into the microphone. Easy!
