ALot of people are telling me that CB is just for inbred hicks and that
I should replace the CB in my truck wait a ham radio. What do you

Don't bother changing. The ARRL (Anti-Radio-Relay-League) has gone to
great lengths to try and make ham radio just like CB. You won't gain
anything except the expense of another radio. And besides, next year
you'll be able to get a ham license as the free surprise in a box of
Cracker Jack.
