As a few people on the newsgroup already know, I am preparing a
newspaper article about "whatever happened to CB radios". After a
little research, it looks like a lot has happened!

There was a time when I was looking at a Mercury, back in the late
70's.....and it had CB radio optional....combined into the AM/FM/Cassette
player.

I never saw a car with the option included....just remember reading about it
in a car magazine.
