smokinv8 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Well my old CB given to me 2nd hand has packed up, so to speak and needs replacing. What reccomendations have you guys got from all the models out there? Am I better off buying one of the package deals or just the CB set? As I have got the aerial and cabling in place already and presumably would just need to SWR it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Very pleased with the Intek unit from X-Eng, nothing flashy but the sound is clear & loud. Think Simon stopped selling them though cos there are loads of them all over eBay for cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSD Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Think the Inteks that Fridge had had the front mounted speaker, which is a good thing in a landy if you don't want to add an extension speaker. Otherwise the Maxon CM-10 can be got for about £50. Well built, good performance, no bling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good, also has 3.5 mm output so I can plug it into the stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L19MUD Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I bought a Midland 98 plus from thunderpole Basic but it does what it says on the tin! Its also small enough to fit in between the stereo and the speedo housing on a defender without getting in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbs Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I bought my one from Maplin's-as i wanted it there and then but have a look on e-bay as someone else has mentioned John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landy andy. Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Would not bother with ebay or second hand, due to lack of help/advice/return, or if you have any probs. They are not that much cheaper so why take the risk?????? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
