President Johnny III USA + BT MIKE Bluetooth Microphone Combo
This Johnny III USA combo adds the President BT MIKE steering-wheel microphone system to the compact AM CB radio. The wireless microphone connects through the supplied President six-pin dongle, placing PTT and channel controls at the microphone's mounting position.
The included Johnny III USA is a 40-channel AM CB radio for 12- or 24-volt vehicle systems. It features NOAA weather reception and alerts, manual squelch and ASC, RF gain, channel scan, VOX, and an orange, green, or blue display. It does not provide FM or SSB operation.
Included components
| Component | Quantity | What it provides |
|---|---|---|
| President Johnny III USA | 1 | AM CB radio with its standard wired microphone and mounting hardware |
| President BT MIKE | 1 | Bluetooth microphone system with President six-pin dongle, battery, USB charging cable, and steering-wheel mount with strap |
How the wireless microphone connects
Plug the BT MIKE dongle into the Johnny III's front President six-pin microphone socket and pair the microphone according to its instructions. The dongle supplies the wireless interface; the radio does not need built-in Bluetooth.
The BT MIKE provides five selectable noise-reduction levels, UP/DOWN channel controls, and a PTT button. Its PTT can be used in toggle mode or press-and-hold mode. Charge the microphone as directed and confirm operation before using the setup.
Position the mount so it does not interfere with the wheel, vehicle controls, or airbag deployment area. A steering-wheel microphone is not a guarantee of compliance with every local driving rule.
Antenna equipment remains separate
This is a radio and microphone package. It does not include an antenna, antenna mount, coax, external receive speaker, or SWR meter. Use an appropriate CB antenna system and an external meter to check its SWR.
Don't forget to add the Pro tune and alignment option at checkout so that your radio is professionally bench-tuned for best performance per the manufacturer's service manual.
