    Bells is supposed to be good. Just tell them you want a good factory alignment with NO modifications done. Those radios sound great out of the box.

    Yep, I have the 655 and it's one of the best sounding radios between the 655 and the 955 radio and it's well built. I'm a customer of Bells CB ever since I lived in Boca Raton and moved away his customer service is one of the best. He will hook you up if you tell him what all you want in a radio. Also may want to look in to a another microphone such as Astatic 636 a great microphone that works really well with the radio that is what I use. I do plan on getting the Astatic D104-6B microphone that is amplified/battery is needed. The microphone you'll need is a 4 pin.

    I agree with Delta5 tell them what radio your looking for such as the 655 and see what they recommend such as 11 meter conversion/peak and tuned and etc...I would say just get the 11 meter conversion.

    If it cost more I will pay it to have it aligned. His site says 39 bucks to do it with a tune up.

    Sounds like a plan! Only thing that I wish Stryker would have done is add the frequency counter that shows the frequency on the radio that is why I bought the 655 over the 497. Ask him for the $39 what does all the tune up involve.
