Midland 722 CB

topcat59 · 12-04-2007, 10:59 PM

Does anyone have any experience using the Midland 722 CB on a motorcycle? I am looking at the J&M system, but have an opportunity to pick one of these up, along with a starcom1 for a reasonable price.
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks
Tom

I'm sorry TC, I can't help you. BTW What's a starcom1 ?

I'm not familiar with the Midland 722, but I can tell you from experience that the J&M is your best bet. I used to use Cobra CB's on my bike, but went to the J&M. No regrets.

How do you guys hear it as speed?

They probably don't drive as fast as you do

I always wear a full-faced helmet, but you can hear it just fine with a half. Depends on your communications gear.

You really need to watch those fat fingers, BD...LOL.

Guys,
thanks for the advice. The starcom1 is a communication integrator, line the autocom or the baer system.

I know the J&M is most likely easier, in fact Trip has the set up i am looking for - CB, Zumo 550...

I got the starcom1 with two headsets at a good price and wanted to see if it could be set up. the site said yes... but then again...

i am going to the motorcycle show in NYC at the end of the month and perhaps i will bite the bullet and get the J&M.. There is always Ebay for the other system (Starcom1)..

Thanks!
Tom
