Dunlop CB this guy knows about CB radios he has new and used. If you need to have your radio peaked he will open the case hook it up to some scope and adjust the internal working of your radio this improves the performance. He charged me 10 dollars

I know that a lot of you have heard me say this before but here it goes again. Pretty much any radio will work fine for trail use. The really important thing with any cb is to not go cheap on the antenna and cable. These two items can make or break how well your system works. Check out Blamoshop.com they are local in Elkhart right by Lochmandy Motors. You can purchuse thru their Ebay store and pick it up at their warehouse.

I would have to agree with Dave about this company. They have a TJ mount I am picking up here soon. They have a COBRA 19 DX IV for $41.00 in there ebay store and FireStik FS4-W 4' CB Antenna around $18.00
