Inside Back Cover

The Citizens Band lies between the shortwave broadcast and 10-meter Amateur radio bands, and was established by law in 1949. The Class D two-way commu- nications service was opened in 1959. (CB also includes a Class A citizens band and Class C remote control frequencies.)

FCC regulations permit only ÒtransmissionsÓ (one party to another) rather than ÒbroadcastsÓ (to a wide audience). Thus, advertising is not allowed on CB Channels because that is Òbroadcasting.Ó

“Cuts Static coming in, adds Punch going out!”

Cobra proudly introduces the first Patent Pending technology that dramatically improves the transmission and reception of CB radio signals.

This revolutionary system reconfigures the transmission signal which allows it to be transferred more effectively through cluttered airwaves. It literally ÒpunchesÓ your message through the hundreds of thousands of signals that are in the air. At the same time, SoundTracker system dynamically adjusts the relationship between the signal and static commonly referred to as noise. This allows CobraÕs SoundTracker system to significantly reduce the amount of static on all incoming CB signals. The system can be further optimized when two SoundTracker CBÕs are used to talk to each other.

The end result is a clearer, cleaner sounding reception of signals and more powerful transmissions which dramatically improve CB Communications

All transmitter adjustments other than those supplied by the manufacturer as front panel operating controls, must be made by, or under the supervision of, the holder of an FCC-issued general Radio-Telephone OperatorÕs License.

Replacement or substitution of transistors, regular diodes or other parts of a unique nature, with parts other than those recommended by Cobra, may cause violation of the technical regulations of Part 95 of the FCC Rules, or violation of Type Acceptance requirements of Part 2 of the Rules.

You should read and understand Part 95 (included with this unit) of the FCC Rules and Regulations, before operating your Cobra radio, even though the FCC no longer requires you to obtain an operators license.
