I installed a dual band ham radio and have been a ham since 1986 (N4UNT) I know everyone use's CB's as they are cheap but feel that sooner or later most Jeep clubs will become hams and switch over to a much better radio.
Ha...funny you posted this. Channel 6 is exactly as you describe here in my part of PA. Some yahoo has an overpowered system that bleeds into other channels and he speaks the most insane drivel and nonsense without ever taking a breath. Who are these people???
