Will This Work on the Midland 1001LWX 40 Channel Mobile CB with Weather Scan? How far on rang? Here is my radio link http://www.amazon.com/Midland-1

Yes it will. As for the range that will vary depending on how you route the co-axial connector cable.

In suburban conditions, GMRS (if you are licensed on this frequency) could give you 1.5 miles (as the crow flies), but it's really stretching it. FRS will give you 500 yards, plus or minus. Out on rolling range, I have done better, but when you are out of the line of sight, it's not good no matter the conditions. I have used both Motorola and Midland and Midland has superior propagation, but these types of radios are by their nature a half step above a toy. If you want additional range, get an amateur license and operate on the 2 meter band, but that is a process and the equipment cost is is not $60 set for a set.

It will work fir a CB radio if you can find an adaptor. The cord is 20 ft long and attached to the antenna. At the end is a small screw in type fitting that looks like it will fit a CB adaptor. That piece screws into a marine radio adaptor. So, if you can find the correct adaptor it will work.

I only purchased the weather radio. I don't have the Motorola Two Way radios. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

No it will not without an adaptor...this antenna has an RCA Plug on it...that's the way it comes...works perfectly with Midland weather radios...

Range is determined by several things, not necessarly all by the brand/part number of radio: antenna placement, type of antenna, height of antenna, and signal stength of the radio all determine transmit and receiving ranges. You should contact Midland and ask them for the tech specs on this radio, they will provide them for free. Their customer service dept will also make suggestions on what type of antenna would work for your application and provide you with suggested mounting locations. https://midlandusa.com/cb-radios/support/

yes it will work with no problem, just adjust your swr and your ready to go. this antenna will work fine on 11 and ten meter and even 12 meters.

That depends on the surrounding area. If you are in an open field, the distance could be measured in miles. But I never had any chance to test it. Usually I am using it for shopping purposes: my wife goes shopping in the mall, while I am sitting inmy car in the parking lot. I never had any chance to lose her. Compared to previous walkie-talkies that I had used, Midland is the best one. Weather forecast available on this model is quite helpful. Well, everything depends on where you are going to use it. Obstacles like buildings surrounding you may definitely shorten the distance of communication with another person, but I have never had any chance to check it. That depends on the surrounding area.

This antenna unit has a standard PL-259 connector. If your Midland uses a BNC, you can get one at Radio Shack, before they go out of business.

Hello and thanks for contacting us. In relation to your question, Yes, this Headset work with Midland 75-822 Cb Radio. Thank You

Yes and no. I use a CB SWR meter to check 2M antennas all the time. There is a trick to it however. If all you want to to is check SWR on your 2M antenna, you don't necessarily have to buy a dedicated VHF/UHF SWR meter. What I keep in my toolbag for that is a cheapie $5 hamfest special CB SWR meter. They really don't work well on 2M but there's a trick you can do that will net a reasonably accurate SWR reading on 2M with one of these meters. What you do is connect up the meter as usual, key the rig with the switch in the forward power position, set the adjustment for full scale. Now, without touching anything, swap the coax connections so that the rig is connected to the "ANT" side of the meter, and the antenna is connected to the "XCVR" side. The reading you see on the meter will be very close to your real SWR. The closer to 1:1 your SWR is, the more accurate it will be. It would be more convenient to have a real SWR meter or antenna analyzer if you do a lot of testing, but for a quick antenna check after a mobile install or whatever, the $5 CB meters work OK.

No,this is for Citizens Band radio frequencies. You'll need a different antenna for weather band frequencies unless you invest in a Uniden 980 SS cb radio which has weather band frequencies included and then you can use this antenna. It's best that you purchase a weather band radio if that's the only thing you want.

mine never worked brand new out of the box, there is a group of us that go off-roading and we are always pretty close and it would not transmit or receive it was just all static. the weather radio works on it though. would not buy again

The first thing to know is that GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) and CB (Citizen's Band radio) are not the same thing. GMRS is FM at 462 MHz and it's in most handheld radios now sold (usually 14 or 22 channels). CB, usually used in vehicles by truckers and others, is on 27 MHz AM and has 40 channels. SO you need to know which you really want. If you really want GMRS because you have other GMRS radios, the answer to the question is yes, it has 15 of the GMRS channels, BUT! it's not the best radio if you don't have a boat because it's so easy to transmit on the marine band by mistake during rugged outdoor use. That's illegal on land and can be very dangerous to boaters. GMRS-only radios are a better choice for that and most have 22 channels. And, frankly, this radio is a bit big and clunky on land and I have other GMRS radios I like better. Sadly, I can't recommend those because the ones I have are old and discontinued and hard they're hard to find used. If it's really CB you want, the answer is no, you have to buy a separate CB walkie-talkie. CB isn't often considered anymore for portable outdoor use but cell phones and cheap GMRS radios have emptied it out and the lower frequency can work better in forests than GMRS, and you don't need a license to transmit above 0.5 watts. For CB, I have a 4-watt Midland 75-822 and I like it.

You need to get an SWR meter and tune the antenna by moving the vertical antenna element for best performance. 1:2 is the best I was able to get. So far I was able to reach 30 miles on LSB during the night.

Not exactly sure, but you could try getting a cb/weather radio combo and try that with the K40. But I would recommend getting a fiberglass antenna if you are using a cb radio, and a separate antenna for weather radio.

Mine works with my Midland, but I am not familiar with the radio you are asking about....
