    Question CB Radio

    I'm looking to get a CB, saw Spazz' radio that is hand held with the transmitter in a small box below the driver's seat. Anyone (Spazz) know the maker and model number of the CB?

    Not quite on-topic, but I bought stuff from this guy a long time ago (7 years ago)... pretty good prices on CB stuff.

    www.bills2way.com

    I think this (http://www.bills2way.com/equip/mid75820.html) is a better choice. Nothing left installed in the truck. Remove when not in use... nothing to steal... except the antenna unless you use a magnetic one. Plus, you can use it as a handheld if you're into backpacking and hiking... it has NOAA weather bands too.

    Other than a magnet mount, how are you guys attaching the CB antenna?

    If you have a roof rack you can get a clamp on antenna moutning bracket. Check bills2way.com tons o' stuff there. You can also get a through glass one like the cell phone antennas. They stick on to both sides of the glass. Works fairly well. I had that in a Jeep few years back and got about a 4 mile range with it.

    I always liked Tonka's antenna. http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/sh...papass=&sort=4

    Firestick sells the mount. I just haven't had the guts to drill through the back of my VX. So I use a Wilson 500 mag mount.

    I don't think 4 wheel drive will be an upgrade option! My bro and I are looking at an old beater Scout with a turbo diesel Nissan motor. I think a rear locker would help the Axiom but not on the stuff you and Andy where doing!

    Thumbs up No, not the 75WXST but the 76XTR!

    Yeah, I will soon have a CB and I was looking at the 75WXST but
    I will get the 76XTR due to the fact that it has a PA. No weather band. The 76 comes with a ant but I have already put a cell lookalike firestick (DS-14)on my VX with a fake ant too. I think it looks too cool. Will post pics tomorrow!

    i am using the cobra as listed above. its a nice unit if you don't have alot of room to mount a cb. i have it mounted under the seat. i had a midland for a while...it was stolen(in wyoming, of course). it was a great unit, but didn't have as many functions or weather band.
    i love my cobra. i think i maybe the only honda with a cb.

    i have a mag. mount antenna. kinda nice because you can just interchange if you have more than one vehicle.
