Compact and full featured.
This is a very nice radio. I use it in a semi truck on multiple channels. It's smaller size makes it an easy install, yet, it is still a full featured cb with side band. The swr meter is very handy because it makes an audible beep that signals how close you are as you adjust the antenna. The automatic squelch is also nice. It can get a bit annoying if there is a lot of radio traffic, but, it's real easy to switch to manual. There are a couple things I don't like, hence the 4 star rating. It's harder to use than a cobra 29 classic because each button has multiple functions. Don't lose the manual. The channel buttons on the mic are too easy to push and I end up on the wrong channel frequently. The mic is a nice size, though. This is my first President radio and I think the extra features are worth the money for me.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Out of the box value? not so much, a after a tune up? sure..
Great packged radio for a AM/SSB mobile, RX is pretty good even through the little front speaker, clear and with certain "tone" settings , comfortable to listen to. Now for the TX, Its stable (no drifting on ssb mode) but the power out put on this unit is very little. Out of the box its out put was 3 watts on AM with around a .5watt fwd swing. Its clear but not very loud audio. The SSB power out put, was the same, peak power was 3.5 watts. Most of the AM/SSB radios I have used would do around 12watts on ssb and around the same on AM 3 to 4 watts. There is only 2 adjustments that can be made by a person for the 12 watt out put on SSB. If your not familiar with tuning and setting power out put, best leave that to a radio tech. I did manage to adjust mine to do 12 to 14 watts peak on SSB and on AM I left the carrier at 3 watts and was able to achive a decent 7-8 watts by voice (peak power) All in All a fairly simple radio to run even while mobile once the menu settings are to your liking.. Recomend it out of the box? no, but after a adjustment is made its not a bad value. The Board looks fairly solid (inside) so if its in a rough riding truck / jeep/4x4 Id say it would take a beating.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Best CB radio on the market!
SWR meter is amazing in this radio. It beeps faster and faster the closer you get to 1.0 so you don't have to go in and out of the vehicle to constantly check it. Auto Squelch works perfectly. USB and LSB with the clarifier tuners works very well. The display color options are amazing but green and orange looks the best at day and night from any angle. Blue is not that great. Noise blocker and high frequency cut off for high pitch static both works very well. Roger beep can be turned on or off. Mic is very nice with channel up and down controls. I paired my radio with 18ft of RG8X cable and a Firestick FS11 antenna and I get 1.0 SWR from about channel 10 to 30 and the other channels are at 1.2 so it is a very well tuned setup and transmits and receives very well. I talked to a friend that was on a home base station over 10 miles away with forest between us on a regular AM channel not using side band. The weather radio works great. You can also get full schematics from the President company and fully service and mod this radio on your own. It's over built like a tank but has a small compact size. Full metal body. Front facing speaker is awesome and gets very loud. Easy to hear over a loud 6.5L V8 diesel engine. If you're looking for a great quality CB radio then the President McKinley should be perfect for you. The company has been around forever, they have the best costumer support, and they have the best quality on the market. Cobra doesn't even come close to this radio. And I'm also running this radio off of 24 volts. Do your research, look up this radio on Google and YouTube and try it out. You'll love it and won't have any regrets.

President Mckinley ssb radio
Compact size fits in most locations in car or truck. Controls set thru menu like new am-fm radios. When paired with a good antenna rx and tx are acceptable for cb band. Weather band is useful for on road alert conditions. Don't recommend any President brand antennas use Wilson or Firestik antennas for more adjustability for lower tuned SWR readings with this radio. Front firing speaker has enough volume in dash except for the most loud truck cabs. Built in swr calibration is ok for spot check just not as accurate as outboard unit Dosy tr1000 meter.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Professional CB Radio
Very good quality. Front speaker is clear and loud enough to hear from any mounted position. Channel up and down buttons on mic make changing channels really easy! SWR auto time is really a cool feature too!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great little radio!
So far so good - I think it's a slightly better radio than the 980SSB (the 980 is a good radio, IMO the McKinley is better). The built-in SWR meter is awesome, the RF gain adjustment is much more refined. It's a less noisy radio, the speaker is great. I also enjoy the channel up/down buttons on the mic (very handy).Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

President McKinley
This is a great plug and play cb radio with loads of features like the multi channel monitoring system as well as the scanning mode which scans all 40 channels in 4 seconds. It also has the weather band. The most liked feature on this radio is the auto squelch Overall it’s the best radio I’ve owned yet.

Quality shines through.
I bought both this President McKinley and also a Uniden 980SSB at the same time. Although the Uniden is OK, the President McKinley oozes quality and is in my opinion the better radio of the two. Construction is good and the case, which is embossed with the President logo, has a thick and glossy polymer surface finish which resists scratching. Overall the impression is of a radio which has been well designed and assembled with care. The microphone is a little on the puny side, but even so, it appears to work well and have a nicely balanced frequency response. Controls feel nice and tight, and the display, although not as pretty as the Uniden’s, is very clear from any angle and even in strong sunlight. This is very important in mobile installations where the sun can drown out displays. The Uniden 980SSB display is hopeless in strong sunlight and at anything other than directly in front of the viewer. The McKinley’s Performance seems good with nice clear audio both on receive and transmit. Sensitivity appears to be very good and surprisingly the received audio dosen’t suffer from much white noise, unlike other modern CBs I’ve used. The 980SSB was also good in this regard. My President McKinley arrived slightly off frequency on LSB but this was easy to adjust internally (you can download the service manual on the net from President- unlike Uniden who selfishly refuse to make servicing data available!). This is a great CB for in-car mounting due to the front-mounted speaker, and with its quality construction, should I think stand the test of time. I’m happy with mine, and I feel that it is probably the best AM/SSB radio on the market at the moment. Congratulations President for producing a quality radio, for releasing the service manual, and for providing a design which suits in-car installations.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Almost too many features, and takes a little thinking to learn how to use them.
Paired with new president antenna, I can talk and hear much further than my little Uniden. The automatic squelch control works amazingly well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
