I don't want to sit on the cb all day but could be useful from time to time on our road trips.
As a matter of interest I had a couple of cb's confiscated by police before they were legalised.
Perhaps they could start confiscating mobile phones...

I have a GME 5W handheld that I use on long trips on the road. It's great for communicating with road trains when you want to get around them as sometimes there's two or three so they will create a gap for you or let you know if somethings coming.
I saw a full triple overtake another full triple road train not too long ago, that was an at least 5 or 6 minute exercise and the road wasn't straight either. I thought they must have had a mate further up the road letting him know it was clear but I couldn't here them talking with any one else on my handheld.
