    No one sez you have to listen. You’ve 39 other channels.

    With SSB you’d have had 120.

    In today's world the CB is mainly used for truckers to talk about pulling over and fighting each other

    Is there a list of reputable CB shops out west, or can I get a recommendation? I feel like my range is maybe the size of a truck stop. I’d like to pay someone to check it out.

    I also believe the 880 has a SWR meter. Guess I should read the owners manual.

    Wrong thread. Research the topic and maybe re-activate an old thread on the same subject.

    What truck, what antennas, etc. Be inclusive of details. Pics also great.
