I like that last bit.

Still, not to beat a dead horse, but new users dont really need to understand this rule change that was enacted for manufacturers.
But they might want some basic info on the advantages of FM vs AM... which was probably your point.
I dont even know what I'm arguing at this point. You're just the only one responding to any of my notes today. 🤣
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.
Buy the best antenna you can afford. It makes a HUGE difference.
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.
They're retired and lonely, so it makes sense. It still seems like an odd desire.
I've been tempted to cheer them up by keying down with my UV-5R, telling them how my spurious emissions are better than theirs, and finishing with roger-beeps.
Maybe I'll do that if I ever retire.
