I haven't used one in over twenty years.
We bought a Motor home and figure we need one to keep up with road

I've been looking and like the features of Galaxies bu they are pricey.
I would like to et a 10 meter if the license isn't too bothersome to get.
What would you recommend in just a regular Cb and or a 10 meter?
Are the Truck Stops offering a good price on a preferred unit?
I really don't want to buy over the Internet. I haven't found one CB
shop or a retailer, other than Radio Shack, withing 50 miles.


Forget 10 meter. It's used for SSB and only active at peak solar cycle, plus you
need a license. Get a Uniden. All you are looking for in channel 19. The Unidens
are fine, and under $100. The Galaxies are a overrated drift machine, that is
overkill for your use.
