Slightly off topic..if you get bored with CB...checkout getting an amateur radio licence and mobile setup. The licence is way easier than it was 15 years ago.the mobile sets are cheaper now and the range is better than cb with the use of numerous free repeaters across the country. It is common for some repeaters to cover a 35-50 mile radius while using a 10-25 watt set with a simple 19 inch antenna.
