Sound Tracker®
“Cuts noise coming in…strengthens signals going out.” This technology dramatically improves transmission and reception of the CB signals. The revolutionary SoundTracker® System reconfigures the transmission signal which allows it to be transferred more efficiently through cluttered airwaves. At the same time, it significantly reduces the amount of static on all incoming CB signals. The end result is a cleaner, clearer sounding reception of signals and a more powerful transmission which dramatically improves CB communications.
