I've got a little VHF/UHF handset. What's a good CB radio? Something that won't break the bank?

Its called craigslist I think.. 😂

From what I understand, the new cool kid im CB radio is President. They have all kinds of models.

No Craigslist here unfortunately 😂

I looked on our equivalent but CB radios don't exist apparently. I'll probably buy new.

IMHO, the Cobra 29 LTD is the gold standard. I dunno. A couple hundred bucks new maybe. Then you gotta get an antenna.

And some coax

Down another rabbit hole I go 😂

Buy the best antenna you can afford. It makes a HUGE difference.

I'll 2nd this. Likely the antenna is more important than the radio.

I was going to say that, but sometimes people want to debate that FACT. 😜

Shopping list: CB radio, 27 MHz antenna ✅

Yes, this I know. Thankfully I used to deal with wireless Internet stuff so I have a little bit of knowledge.

My little ham handheld works a lot better thanks to a bigger whip antennae. The difference from the pack in was night and day.
