Bought a Cobra 29LX from pilot/flying J about 2 weeks ago. Lasted just long enough to get past the 7 day no refund period. Then the talkback crapped out and it started having a lot of static/white noise you couldnt tune out. The only option I had since it was past the 7 day refund period was exchange. Not much selection. All they had was 3 varieties of cobra 29s, galaxy 959, some midland sub compact thing, and uniden 880. I went with the uniden 880. I like it but I would have liked the 980 much more. I miss having SSB in the truck.
Im wondering if maybe they dont sell refurbs or something.
