5Compact, Inexpensive, ReliableJan 07, 2007
By B. Fertig
OVERVIEW

I had this radio in my Dodge truck. It tucked nice under the dash and was a great performer. Power was good as well as reception. Great Buy!

POWER

Any CB you purchase is limited to 4 watts output power so dont let size fool you. ALL CB'S are limited to 4 watts due to FCC regulations, look it up!

PRICE

The price on this site is high retail to say the least. I purchased this unit from Wal-Mart for 35 dollars.

SIZE

This will not take up a bunch of in-cab space that you dont have to spare due to manual tranmissions and transfer case levers. It tucks away nice and doesnt get in the way.

5Good basic unit for the moneyAug 21, 2008
By UltraB
The 19 DX IV is a great little CB for the money. Yes, like a previous reviewer said, it does reset to channel 1 each time the power is cut, but....there's an instant channel 9/19 button. So with two little taps, your on 19, no big deal. This is a great unit for someone who just wants a basic unit to monitor highway conditions while travelling. It's also good for someone who wants to have a CB for emergencies but wants a step up from one of those useless emergency CBs like you used to see marketed a while back. Finally, yes, it's great for off-roaders who want a basic CB that can fit in the tight interior of a jeep or smaller truck. As with any CB, the antenna makes the big difference. Pair this with a Wilson Little Wil magnet mount antenna and you have a solid performing combo for routine CB use.

4Great Little CBAug 30, 2005
By Da-wei Hong
bought one of these because i had a good experience with the older model (III). this is a good little radio, doesnt have some of the bells and whistles of more expensive models but works fine as a CB. if it had a channel scanning or built in SWR functions i would have given it 5 stars.

3Good radio, but there is better for lessMay 08, 2009
By Jeff Sabelko
It's a decent unit, and cobra is a great company, but there is much better. The midland 1001z is much better built and has much better sound quality and features.

That being said, here's why this radio gets three stars. My main issue is the new digital setup on this radio. It pops as signals come in and out of the squelch range. This gets very annoying when you want to just cut out the white noise and hear as much as you can. If someone is right on the border of your signal range, they will pop as they cut in and out, where as other radios will feather in and out, or hold the signal until they quit transmitting. The previous generation of this radio (with the separate LED lights for the meter) was MUCH better in this regard. If you must have a cobra, look for that version, or go to another model. Cobra just went too cheap on this one, but you still pay a premium for the name. All the components feel needlessly light compared to the competition, and also compared to older cobra's themselves. The one missing feature that others have is the RF gain. Very handy and doesn't seem like it'd be much trouble for them to add it, but they reserve that for their expensive radios.

Again, on it's own, this is a good radio, but when you look at it side by side with it's cheaper priced competition, the choice is easy.

1Consider the UNIDEN PRO-520XL insteadDec 13, 2010
By Peter J. Kim
I had purchased this radio because of the size and the display being LCD intead of the typical LEDs for CB radios. I have to say, I've made a huge mistake in buying this radio. Here are the reason why you should not waste your money on this el cheapo radio:

1-Case is made of plastic and not typical metal on most CB radios.
2-Unless the radio was directly wired to the battery, it loses the last channel set during the time when you turned off the radio.
3-Lack of NB/ANL makes it hard to screen out noise, and it really picks up lots of noise from your car and elsewhere.
4-In a noisy environment, hard to make out the sound coming from the radio, it's also very hard on the ear. I wound up turning it off more than leaving it on, so it defeats the purpose.

If you're on the market for a compact 40channel radio, consider the alternative such as the UNIDEN PRO-520XL, it has much better construction and it has the ANL/Squelch/RF Gain and has much better receive than the Cobra. I know, because I owned both radios and 520XL beats the pants out of the Cobra 19DX IV hands down. I am really hoping for all you potential buyers of this radio to consider the alternatives and don't let the looks of this radio fool you. If you're on a budget, consider the Midland 1001Z 40 Channel CB, these radios can be made to scream and you can easily full truckers making them think that you're running a Galaxy "DX" radio.
