Midland 1001Z 40-Channels Base CB Radio

This is a very simple minded radio. Installation is straight forward, the mounting bracket allows it to sling under the dash. The downward firing speaker is perfect for underdash or overhead installs. I just set mine vertical between seats in the console. It comes with plus and minus wire so it is not necessary to ground the unit. mine was used, so i clip the wires right before the fuse and ran to a cigar type plug that i got at Walmart which has the fuse built-in and the 2 wires for easy pigtail connection.

Operation is simple too. The squelch control worked to keep noise down, much better than i expected. There is a LED to indicate when you are speaking loud enough for modulation. Channel is selected by a twist knob. This is really a retro 1970's rig but that is exactly what i wanted.
