Our take on the Uniden Pro Series 40-Channel Weatherband CB Radio

The Uniden PRO538HHFM is a handheld 40-channel CB radio with AM/FM modes, NOAA weather channels and weather alerts. It runs from a 12-volt accessory port or from alkaline or NiMH batteries, so it works in a vehicle or on foot. Its 4-watt high and 1-watt low power settings let you choose range or battery life. It suits drivers, off-roaders and campers who want a compact CB with weather coverage, though its small whip antenna and handheld range limit it against full-size mobile CBs.
