    I'm looking at buy a CB for my truck and I'm just looking for anyone that has a suggestion of a good reputable shop that is either online or that I can call them up and ship it to my home. Looking for a good peak and tune with no nonsense from a place that might say they do it, but you end up with worse tune then where it started at from factory. I don't mind forking over a little extra for a more reputable shop either. I live in Wisconsin and I'm not entirely sure about the local shops around here.

    If you get over to/thru Madison there is Q-5 Communications in Deforest exit 132, upstairs inside the Truckers Inn truck stop. One of the best shops out there IMHO.

    After looking at Bells site and what they offer i'm a new fan.
    The fact that they carry antennas from Fat Boy says they
    want to offer good stuff.

    I've never done business with Bells. I've always went to Chuck. I've went to him for about 7 years and have ZERO complaints. He's a honest man and will always do you right!

    Could always try amazon too. Bought myself a nice little Uniden, a SWR tuner, and a K40 antenna for under 100 bucks to put on my Audi. Use it when I do runs with buddies, to car meets and what not. Just a thought. Might I add, that K40 antenna is pretty impressive for just a trunk magnet setup. Tuning is easy, I think I ended up having to trim maybe 3/4th's of an inch off the whip. Somewhere in that general area. Though in the future I'd def go with something with a built in SWR. Far more convenient for sure.
