The President Bill has long been a simple solution for drivers who want full-featured CB performance without giving up dashboard real estate. Now there's a new BILL in town! The new Bill III FCC builds on the ultra-compact legacy of the earlier Bill and Bill II models and adds FM modulation with a host of smart signal-processing tools into an ultra compact casing that’s barely larger than a typical smart phone.
Ultra-compact, dash-friendly design
When President says ultra-compact, it's no joke. At just 4.02 in W × 3.94 in D × 0.98 in H and weighing a scant 0.7 lb, the Bill III FCC can slide into tight modern dashboards, UTV consoles or motorcycle fairings with ease. Yet despite its almost credit-card size footprint, this tiny transceiver delivers the full legal 4 W carrier limit in both AM and FM modes for reliable comms and maximum highway range.
The high-visibility LCD shows channel, frequency, S-meter, and status icons, keeping you informed at a glance even when the radio is flush-mounted with the supplied quick-release clip or traditional bracket. The LCD backlight can be customized with one of seven selectable colors. Choose from orange, green, blue, cyan, yellow, purple, or cyan light to fit the interior color scheme of of your vehicle, or just personal taste.
A front-facing six-pin mic jack and included ultra-light electret mic keep wiring simple, and the radio ships with a full mounting bracket, power lead and hardware so you can be on the air within minutes after opening the box. The mic jack is fully compatible with the President Digimike. It is also compatible with the Remote BT Mike, making the BILL III Bluetooth capable. This is a very important consideration for drivers who travel through or reside in states that have now enacted hands-free laws, such as law in Pennsylvania.
Intelligent noise control
Keeping a small radio quiet in a noisy cab is tough, but the BILL III has multiple solutions. President packs its full suite of audio filters into the BILL III despite the small footprint.
Automatic Squelch Control or ASC continuously adapts squelch to changing noise floors, so you’re not constantly reaching for a knob to manage it manually. A single key cycles the ANL and NB filters, and a long-press engages HI-CUT to roll off harsh high-frequency hiss. The NRC or Noise Reduction Circuit digitally cleans up weak signals. The Scan Skip feature lets you bypass busy or noisy channels while sweeping the band.
Built-in NOAA weather and alerts
Long-haul or back-country operators will appreciate the integrated NOAA Weather Radio receiver with alert tone, keeping you ahead of fast-moving storms. Press one button to swap from CB to the seven NOAA WX channels. A long-press activates the weather-alert watchdog that triggers the radio’s siren when the National Weather Service sends a tone. It's handy when storms pop up while on the road.
Driver-friendly extras
Five factory-programmed P-Channels add a fresh twist to this CB. Each memory channel pairs an existing CB frequency in FM mode with a fixed CTCSS tone or DCS code, giving groups a quick, filtered calling option without complicated menu choices. Channel mode scan makes it easy to monitor traffic or search for an open frequency.
VOX capability lets you transmit hands-free with an optional headset. It's perfect for off-roaders or delivery drivers who need both hands on the wheel. Two programmable emergency memories give instant access to your preferred DX or local help channels.
The BILL III FCC arrives with everything required to install in your vehicle. It ships with a wired hand microphone, mounting bracket, power cord, fuse and hardware and owners manual, so you can be on the air as soon as it’s out of the box. It is backed by a two-year warranty from President, and is extendable to an additional three years when purchased with a President CB antenna.
