Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I drive a weekly commute of around 180 miles each way, often at early morning hours, and have often thought about installing a CB to hear the trucking traffic all around me, but never had a real reason to until recently when I was going to be embarking on a fishing trip off in the woods with others who had CBs installed. So I bit the bullet and got this little unit. Installation was simple, though it could have used more wire (I lucked out; the previous owner had had an amp in the back of the Jeep and left the wiring, so I just used that). Everyone that has seen it has commented on how good it looks in the truck, and how it looks like standard equipment. Coupled with a cheap Roadpro 36inch Magnet Mount CB Antenna Kit With Spring 17feet Coax Cable Base Loaded RP-707, I've been getting great reception while on the road, and every radio check I've done it has been commented how I'm "coming in real good". During my recent fishing trip, my buddy, using a circa-1979 emergency portable CB, could hear me almost three miles away, through woods and mountains. They say that if you have $100 to spend on a CB, spend $20 of it on the CB and $80 on the antenna. If that's the case, you can't go wrong with this little radio. AJH
