Cobra Two-Way Radio
Q: If I buy American two way radios eg- cobra radios, will they work in the uk?
Cheers
A: They will work between each other, but the frequency they are on is not for public use and you will interfere with emergency services, when they trace you, you will be heavily fined. You may also cause a loss of life.
I have a Cobra two way radio model # PR260 and i lost the manual for it and was wondering if any of you could find one one for me and supply a link to a picture o it or a PDF version. Please and thank you!
I downloaded the form from the FCC web page, but it is very extensive, I want to save time and do it right.
Four new Cobra radios are now in stock and ready to ship. Here at Buy Two Way Radios we are often impressed by Cobra radios. Compact, affordable, and loaded with features they are a great value and often a good solution for those that are tired of larger and bulkier radios. New for this year, they are all certified lead free and even come in an eco-friendly package.
First we have the Cobra microTALK CXT90, a great little entry level radio. It has 22 GMRS/FRS channels and 121 privacy codes, VOX hands free operation, scan feature, selectable roger beep, and a key lock all in a small case. This is a good "starter" radio for a very nice price.
Next we have the Cobra microTALK CXT400. The 22 GMRS/FRS channels and 121 privacy codes, VOX hands free operation, scan feature, selectable roger beep, NOAA weather alerts, and a backlit display are just some of the features.
The Cobra microTALK CXR700 is another feature packed radio in a small case. The radios have 22 GMRS/FRS channels and 142 privacy codes. It also has VOX hands free operation, VibrAlert® silent paging, scan feature, selectable roger beep, NOAA weather alerts, and a key lock. This radio is very compact and could be a great alternative to those replacing cell phones with two way radios.
The final new radio is the Cobra microTALK CXR900. This model is also rather compact compared to other similar radios. With 22 GMRS/FRS channels and 142 privacy codes, VOX hands free operation, 10-Channel NOAA All Hazards Radio, VibrAlert® silent paging, scan feature, selectable roger beep, and a key lock it is loaded with capabilities. It also has a new feature we really like. With the Rewind-Say-Again® feature you can replay calls and record messages for playback. This is great for noisy environments.

If they are 2-way radios, they will work anywhere. They don't care where they are located since they only communicate with each other. There's no cell towers or satellites involved here. 2-way means from one handset to the other. They may not, however, communicate with UK-purchased 2-way radios.
2 of them will work together but they will be illegal.
Theres no reason why not. You may need to enquire about licencing for specific frequencies though to avoid interfering with others. Always best to check.
Ofcom or the JFMG are the people to talk to. They will tell you if the frequencies are clear to use.
