    Default Uniden PC68elite or a galaxy 919?

    i like the options and price of the uniden but heard good things about the galaxy and the built in swr is nice.
    what do you guys think of them? what would you buy and why?
    i need a smaller radio and what to have something that peaks and tunes up well.
    i was going to go for the 520xl but found some room for a bigger radio but dont think i can fit a true full size, and also i dont think i need it.
    i plan to use the radio in part as a countermeasure but allso to heard and talk about routes, weather and traffic. so i figure a good sounding CB should do the trick. dont think that there is need to get something with ssb or do i?
    thanks for the help

    I run a Uniden 68 in one of my cars and it's a nice radio but I'd go for the 919. It has a lot more features.

    are the features worth it? i can get a pc68elite for about $65 and there is a $30 rebate so thats very cheap in my book. seems the going rate for a 919 is about $110, so thats a big differance.
    also do you think its worth it to got to the 979 at $140 and get the ssb?

    Galaxy 919!!!!!.

    If people are looking to make their Uniden or Cobra sound and recieve like and A-plus radio they add MOSFET finals. Galaxy comes stock with MOSFET finals out of the box!!!

    Galaxy makes the best mobile CB in my humble opinion

    SSB isn't needed I have a Galaxy dx949 with ssb and i never use it

    Sparky's CB shack is having a deal on a Factory refurb'd dx949 for $90 and factory refurb's dx959 for $120 if you want a SSB radio
