a Uniden PRO538W CB?

What are you trying to do with it, if it -was- working?


This will sound stupid to serious CBers, but I have a mobile rig with
a magnetic mount antenna stored in a metal box behind the seat. I
don't want it hooked up all the time - only on long trips. So I
thought a portable would be a good alternative for daily commutes - I
don't need a lot of range, but it's good to be able to hear the
truckers if I run into a traffic jam. And it can sit on the seat next
to me with a minimum of setup and fuss.

Oh I understand that application, they're golden on road trips.

A cheap Uniden is like $45 new, add a cigarette lighter plug
and a cheap mag mount antenna, and you're good to go.

Rock on.
