c.b.s come about in late 60s, took till early 70s to catch on big! but now days with gps and cell phones the c.b. world has faded alot! earliest c.b.s were 23 channel and midland, johnson, pace, ranger, layette were some the high end brands by 72 could get j.c. penny, sears, realistic, and kraco's! i got a couple realistic's and kraco's and a 23 channel cobra but id be skeerd to hook power to them, 3 cb men all say itll go up in smoke if i did....diodes dried out or something! then your gonna want a vintage antenna like a shakespeare or a fiberglass frances or any magnet mount you could find! flea markets and yard sales best places to search for such! if you planning on using it, get a 40 channel cobra 29 or a uniden 76 and a wilson 1000 antenna and you will be good to go!
