CB Radios | SuperStar SS-676 Slim 80 Watt 10 Meter Radio with AM / FM / PA Modes
The SuperStar SS-676 is a slim-profile 80-watt 10-meter amateur mobile radio built for operators who need a full-featured chassis that fits tight vehicle installs. It's a step up from the entry-level SS-656 in the SuperStar 10-meter lineup — same slim footprint, same seven-color faceplate, same 80-watt output class — with a slightly refined feature set for operators moving into more serious mobile work.
The 1.9-inch chassis fits under a low-clearance dash, in a semi-truck overhead console, or in a pickup with limited mounting room. AM/FM/PA modes cover casual conversation, long-distance 10-meter work when the band opens, and public-address duties on a jobsite or ranch. Four MOSFET finals and a heavy heatsink give you 80 watts PEP with the thermal headroom for long transmit sessions, while built-in SWR and TOT protection keep the finals safe if antenna conditions change.
Who it's for
- Truckers who want a slim mobile that fits an overhead console without swapping brackets
- 10-meter licensed hams stepping up from a 40-channel CB to a modern export-style chassis
- Fleet and off-road operators needing PA capability alongside on-air comms
- Anyone who liked the SS-656 but wants a slightly refined build in the same footprint

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the SuperStar SS-676 a CB radio or a 10-meter radio?
The SS-676 is a 10-meter amateur mobile transceiver, not a CB radio. Operating on 10 meters requires a Technician-class (or higher) amateur radio license from the FCC. It offers AM, FM, and PA modes with 80 watts PEP output.
How does the SS-676 compare to the SS-656?
The SS-676 and SS-656 share the same slim 1.9-inch chassis, seven-color faceplate, 32-level dimmer, and 80-watt PEP output class. The SS-676 is positioned a step up in the SuperStar 10-meter lineup with a slightly refined feature set. Both are excellent choices; the SS-656 is priced lower for operators who want the same footprint at a lower price point.
Will the SS-676 fit in a semi-truck overhead console?
Yes. The SS-676's slim 1.9-inch chassis is designed for tight installs including semi-truck overhead consoles, low-clearance dash mounts, and pickup interiors with limited mounting room. Overall dimensions are 9.7 inches wide by 6.2 inches deep by 1.9 inches tall.
Does the SS-676 need a peak-and-tune or bench alignment?
The SS-676 ships ready to operate, but we recommend adding our Pro Tune and Alignment service at checkout. A professional bench tune brings the radio into full compliance with the manufacturer's service manual specifications and ensures you're getting the performance the chassis is capable of.
What accessories should I add to the SS-676?
The two most common upgrades are the DRX-9010 external speaker and the DRX-6560 4-pin noise-cancelling dynamic microphone. Both are available bundled with the radio as our SS-676 audio-upgrade combo at 5% off buying the parts separately. For a full mobile antenna system, the SS-676 truck-install combo pairs the radio with the Stryker SR-A10 antenna, DRX-3402 mirror mount, and DRX-1518 M213 coax.
What is the warranty on the SuperStar SS-676?
Warranty and support is provided by Ranger USA at (619) 271-4035. CB Radio Supply does not offer an in-house warranty on this product. All sales are final.
