having trouble finding a slot...
I got a Uniden 40 channel sideband rig when Radio Shack closed and still need a dedicated antenna. I can listen with one of the HF antennas, but have yet to transmit. Band is pretty bad...much worse than I remembered from the 70's, but there are open spots if one makes a sked with someone nearby.I keep meaning to add a CB to my shack.
But in a SHTF situation, I can do the CB channels on my HF rig. Not legal, but if I REALLY need it.

Probably going to be hard not to toss out the call...
I bought the Uniden mentioned on the other thread. The mic is hilarious, but otherwise OK:That will be an issue.
It seems they are not that expensive.
What would be a good one? Would it make sense to get one that does SSB also? Or stick with straight AM?
