Not that I plan on getting one, but it was interesting to see that at the Flying J the other day, I saw a bunch of stuff for CBs. Things like power cables, microphones, antennas, and antenna mounts.

I guess I am surprised that some truckers still use them or have them. The only thing I can assume is that since it still requires no license some of them still find it useful.

I have had a CB before but never really used it. I have also had my Amateur Radio (HAM) rigs in my car/truck before. That was not something I think the wife wanted in current truck. So I paired down to some handhelds for this adventure. I would have liked to at least have a GMRS mobile rig but it was the same as the HAM radio too many wires for the wife, so handhelds again. Although to be honest, none of the GMRS mobiles look that great to me. Most are basically just the handhelds with an external antenna. Most do not even allow you to hit GMRS repeaters. You are almost better getting an illegal radio modification to do GMRS on a radio with another service as well. Not that I recommend that, I am just saying that I can understand why people do it.
