Join the vibrant world of amateur radio or upgrade your existing equipment with the Cobra 200 GTL DX four-band, 10-meter model. Though it looks and works similarly to a CB radio, the 200 GTL DX is technically a ham radio, and operates from 28 to 29.7 MHz (as compared to traditional 26.965 to 27.405 MHz CB frequencies). The advantage of the 10-meter design is simple: more power output, which is handled by the dual 40-watt final Mosfet transistors and the 30-watt RF output for a combination of more than 100 watts. As a result, operators can make hundreds of friends around town or around the world, or they can use the radio for emergency purposes, serving as a conduit between citizens and police/emergency services during hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters.

The 200 GTL DX includes a number of valuable features, including 320 channels (80 channels per switch setting); four operating bands (AM/FM, SSB, and CW); a dual power mode that offers a choice between full power (with a larger range) and low power (which conserves output); SWR antenna calibration that helps users receive the best signal (especially in tandem with the antenna warning indicator); and a 10 kHz control switch. Fortunately for operators, the radio also includes a number of extras to improve transmission and reception, including a talk-back control for monitoring the sound feedback effects, tone and echo controls that manage the echo effect and intervals, and a mic gain that dynamically boosts the microphone for increased voice clarity.

Added benefits include a large analog meter, a 4-pin front mic connector, a PA mode, and a six-digit frequency counter. The radio is also backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
