Who on earth would install a CB radio these days?
Well me actually! Still a very useful short range comms device when you have a convoy (well usually just myself and my brother in his jeep) exploring the roads less traveled and less tarmacked across UK and Europe. Really cheap to buy, doesnt require a mobile signal and you don't need to make a call everytime you want to speak. Although, in fairness, this is mainly just a request to pull over for a wee-wee.
Originally I wanted to install in the overhead console - but realised that was only because it would look cool and the dingle-dangle of the curly cable would drive me mad after a while! So put it in one of those fairly useless little pockets down by the gear lever - out of site but ready for those few occasions a year when its needed,
Anyone else go some comms sorted? Hoping some of our Aussie friends have got to some rugged UHF set ups there to put my tiny little little 4W unit to shame!
