Hi group
Im a brand new CDL Truck driver.
Over the road and need some info on CB.
I currently own a simple cobra 40 channle.
Will it be enough ,,, power,watts,ect, For what im doing. Anything more
that i need to know?

Get yourself a Cobra 29 (AM) or Cobra 148 (AM/SSB) which works fine out of
the box. Invest in a Astatic Road King or D104M-6C-DX1 noise canceling
amplified mike and a heavy duty external speaker. Antenna wise get yourself
a 4' Firestick with a mirror mount quick-disconnect so you can take it with
you when moving from truck to truck. Getting your rig peaked/tuned will
slightly help but amps are more troble than they're worth for the average
OTR.
