    I had a decent conversation with a distant truck driver and his driving buddy that was following behind him in another truck he asked me what kind of radio I was talking on I told him a Stryker 655 and a Astatic 636 microphone. Him and his buddy stated to me over the radio I had a great sounding radio and I replied thank you and they're radio's sounded good to.

    Conversations like this I miss around here the locals act like idiots on channel 19 constantly ruining it for everyone else who need to talk on that channel for whatever reason. I manly use the radio when traveling or just around town.

    What kind of radio do you talk on? Do you miss something about CB Radio?

    My radio was matched with the same microphone when Mark had it from what he told me over the phone.

    Sounds like that driver was more intelligent than the ones who ask you what kind of radio it is.
