There is a NEW version of this the Cobra 19 mini am/fm.
or those of you who want a small AM/FM CB radio. $79 am only $99 AM/FM.
FYI

Looks like Anytone is going to take over the market if they keep their quality up to par.

It's a CB. Not an export either. Why would it have FM.

Probably to fill the niche that President radio did with their little Thomas radio. Some like to use the KISS theory in life and maybe don't want to talk World Wide. I know if I buy anymore radios I will try AnyTone, because with my experience with President radio they are missing the boat in Quality. Just my HO !

Maybe because FM is legal and some people actually like the quality of FM.

Yes, and since the FCC made FM legal for CB I don't understand why cobra don't just include it in the new models.
Seems like a dumb move.

The manufacturers probably know that there are people out there itching to buy something new. Now when the newly approved FM is thrown into the mix, buyers probably expect new horizons and people they've never heard before - because they only had an AM or SSB radio.

Especially when they were one of the two "Big Gun" brands pushing to FM legalized. Ironic...
