Can anyone explain how to set-up the cb radio. I would like to listen to it sometimes even though I don't have a mic. I held the cb button till it went into set-up radio but never heard any traffic on it.
The CB on my 05 Ultra only works with the mike and headset plugged in. It doesn't come through on the external speakers. To get out of that mode, either hold down the CB button to turn the CB off, or push the right side thumb button to activate the radio or CD player, with the CB and/or Intercom on VOX interrupt.

Well that is what I was wondering. I wasn't sure if it should play through the external speakers or not.
My 05 Ultra CB works fine through the external speakers. Just make sure the CB is showing up on the display, set to channel 19, and then set the squelch lower so you can pick up something - now you'll need to be near folks using channel 19.
What happens, I'll be listening to the radio, then when a trucker keys up and transmitts, my radio will switch to the CB mode and I can hear. Only time you need the mic/headset is if you need to transmitt
