PresidentElectronics Bill II FCC Ultra-Compact AM/FM CB Radio

I've been using CB radios for over 40 years and let me tell you this little CB is amazing. Tons of features that you usually only find in larger and more expensive radios. Highly recommend.

Good!!🤝

President is a reputable brand by name, but this hand-sized radio can fit in the smallest of spaces. With many of the newer style vehicles, it is difficult to find a radio that can be installed and be useable where installed...This radio satisfies both. This is a great operating radio at an affordable price point. With a properly tuned antenna, this radio offers clear and crisp reception as well as transmission as described by others. Extremely easy to install and remove when needed. I have used CB radios since the mid 70s, and I must say this size radio shows the innovation and forward thinking of the manufacturer.

My search is over!!! I was in search for a feature rich CB with great performance in the smallest setup possible. At least once a year, I take a road trip of >3k miles, and CB is great for situational awareness. In particular ch19 & NOAA weather channels. While it is not as popular as it used to be, I still find great value in having one in each vehicle. This radio has AM & FM modes, & NOAA S.A.M.E. alerts. Today it went off twice due to tornado watch & flood warnings. The AM-CB TX/RX seems to be a little better than my Uniden 980SSB. On WX it picks up 3 stations as opposed to my SSB980 only finds 2. The ASC feature is nice, but with no RF gain (booooo) it stays open past S5 regardless of SNR. Overall, the ASC does have a hard time differentiating between a good signal and noise.The only 2 things I don't like is the absence of an RF gain knob & SWR readings. Drop the USB charging, and put an RF gain knob there instead. I mean who doesn't already have a gazillion USB charging ports? The only time I could see this charging port being helpful is if you mount it on something without any USB ports like a Motorcycle, buggy, or ATV. They included an awesome quick release bracket, in addition to the included traditional tilt bracket, a great option for your super fun exposed rides or easy removal for anti-theft.My first go with this radio is as a base station. 13.8VDC PSU by TekPower, LMR400 cabling by MPD Digital, and a Super Penetrator antenna. Superb results. I will be moving to to my 17' F-150 soon. I wanted to try it out first before making mounting holes all over. After learning all of the features mentioned in the manual, and an hour of testing (in which 2 WX alerts came in) I am ready to make holes, for it's next home, in my truck.I highly recommend this radio to everyone. Are there better radio out there? Yes, but you won't find the performance and features so cleverly packed into such a small CB anywhere else.

I was looking for the best small footprint radio to fit in my Tacoma's center cubby. The only issue I have with this is that the speaker is sort of "tinny" and quiet, so with highway noise it can be difficult to understand what's being said (especially those guys using echo). Features and quality are very good for this small radio.I paired with a Firestik fiberglass antenna.

WOW! What is nice little compact/powerful CB radio. I am currently using as a CB base. It has all the necessary features I need. I don't use SSB, so this radio is just pure perfection for me. President make nice radios.

I bought this as an upgrade from the original President Bill cb radio.I have it installed in my jeep renegade. This radio is perfect for the job. Paired with the President New Virginia antenna, the results are beyond expectations.As with the original, one should go online and research how to access the "service menu" & bring the transmitter to full power. Out of the box, it puts out about 3.5 watts. After the adjustment, it puts out about 4 watts.I'd recommend this radio to anyone looking for a quality mobile rig, and a very limited amount of space.

Excellent radio! Been waiting for a compact unit. Fits nearly anywhere.Highly recommend this radio.
