All-in-one units

Hey, so I've been looking at CBs like the Cobra 76 where the radio and mic are one piece. I really like the all-in-one so I won't have a big radio that I have to find a place to mount. Any downsides to these as long as I get a real antenna like a Ll' Will?

midland 75-822 is probably the smallest all in one unit you can find.
you do miss features by going with an all in one, like gain adjustment, ANL, ability to tune, a quality mic, etc.

little wil will get you started with the basics if you're looking for a temporary magnetic mount. personally, i would probably go with the wilson 1000. longer whip.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I saw the Cobra 76 was similar but, surprise, looks like it got lower ratings. I suppose I wouldn't mind rthe Cobra 19, but I'd much prefer the Midland.
