There used to be one in Lodi, at the Pilot,But it closed some time ago. There is one in Lagrange,but I havent used him.I personally like the guys in Lake Station, Ind. at the Flying J. Real good people, who know what they are doing.

Hey, does anyone know, do they make portable CB's or do you need the large antenna for a good signal?

danthewolf00 · Aug 5, 2009

Well, that would serve my purpose, need one mostly, so when I get to a warehouse they can tell me which dock door to hit. Also, so I can stay in the truck and take a nap and then they will call me when loaded

Thanks to all that replyed I will check both of them out.

LMAO, no I'm not thinking about becoming a male gigilo
Just thinking about different options, I did check out prices for CB's on Amazon and they are pretty cheap. I just figured a portable unit would be easier. Thinking of getting a permanent one and using velcro to mount to dash.

Remember all EO'rs Channel 36 at the truck stops

A gigolo? With the way freight is, that may not be a bad idea.But velcroing the cb to the dash does work,And the best velcro I have found is at WAl-Mart in the crafts section.Use the industrial strength.

Wal Mart cheap Cobra permanent cbs for pretty cheap.

Groebel · Aug 19, 2009

Is the Cobra 29 a pretty good radio? What about antennas I've been looking at fiberglass ones that cost $30.00 each. Do I need two?
I am just getting started and I am trying to budget my startup costs.

guido4475 · Aug 20, 2009

A cobra is a good radio, and I dont know what you are putting it in, but I have had great results using a Wilson magnet-mount antenna, 5000 series, or a wilson mirror mount, 2000 or 5000.A better cb is a connex.
