Y'all must be makin' the $$$. I'm running a crappy TRS Radio Shack unit I bought for like $40 back in 1997. Still works great for trips with my 3' fiberglass whip I got for like $3 from some random guy. Didn't have to tune it much and I have a good 3-4 mile range on the Hwy. I guess I'm just cheap and don't care too much about being able to talk 150mi up the road. I would like to mount my radio in a better place other than between the seats. Thinking about making a bracket and mounting it in the overhead so I can actually hear it w/out having it stick up b/tween the seats.
