Comment: This radio is tops. It provides the convenience of use as a walkie or use as a mobile unit.

Summary: MIDLAND 75-822 40 Channel 2 Way Radio
Comment: Not what I was hoping for. Hooked it up to a whip antenna and took it on a trip to Tennessee following some friends. I know that tuning the antenna helps, but we had it working for about 3 city blocks with that antenna before we left and 0 blocks with the antenna that came on the CB. By the time I got out of town, I could haedly pick up my friends from 100 ft. Really disappointed in this as a Midland product. Would not recommend it to anyone serious about having good communications.

Summary: Nice package and features
Comment: This is a nice package.
Alkaline and rechargeable battery packs are included, along with the charger. Rechargeable batteries are NOT included.
The radio has a lot of features (scan, weather, dual watch ...).
As a walkie talkie with the included rubber duckie antenna, range is pretty limited (as expected). If you buy a Cobra HA-TA Hand-Held CB Antenna, it will almost double the range.
I have not used the radio with the car adaptor yet. I expect the radio will perform a lot better with a mobile antenna.
My only real complaint is that the modulation (transmitted audio) is low and a bit muffled.
The weather radio works well.
The radio can be easily (although illegally) modified for 120 channels AM, 80 channels with an AM / FM mix or some kind of UK mod that wasn't described. Info is available by searching the web. I don't know who is using these frequencies but I would avoid interfering with the 10M Ham band.
There is supposed to be an audio mod but I was not able to find it. This would probably make a big difference.

Summary: portable cb
Comment: the midland 75-822 works quite well for me. I go into the hills on logging roads and have to know what the loggers are doing. Works great. with a quick disconnect I can be walking in the woods
Customer Rating:
Summary: static, missing part
Comment: Overall this product was ok. There was alot of static and I had to turn the Squelch up so much I missed conversation. Also, the rechargeable battery pack had a piece missing. The controls on the reciever were ok, they could have been backlit for night time driving. And the lcd screen should have the option to stay lit all of the time.
