    There is a Big CB Ham store in Hamilton RL electronics. http://www.randl.com/shop/catalog/

    I was looking into an external speaker mounted up by the windshield So I can hear it on the Highway.

        Ok so you trying to tell people GOD has a cb?... I don't know what to say

          My 2cw you must have a matching antenna or it will not work to its full potential you can tune it do it yourself get a meter from radio shack if the antenna is not matched or tuned you will not put out or recive 100 percent if they are correct even a chepo can work good however I perfer to talk to china using 40 watts on the general lee with a 4 foot whip and a 300 watt kicker and a noise cancelling mic. REMEMBER the set up you use could save your butt on a real bad day

          GOOD LUCK

                  True,I'd never spend that much for a trail radio.
