Trying to break your bubble... " Not Rat Shack"... PLEASE !
I wouldn't want you disappointed with a CB by using Rat Shack Products.
Look for a Uniden PRO520XL Compact CB Radio with PA Jack and RF Gain Control or even the 510 model, a little less both in features and $$$ !
These will out perform any Rat shack Rig, size is small, plenty of talk power and great receive and if needed will accept a power mic for even more talk power.
You should be able to find one used because there were a lot sold.
If you can't find one used new they are around $60 new.
I know this is going against what you are thinking but think about what you are doing and the fact that you do not want to be too disappointed with the performance.

its the price i pay for living in a wooded area and working a night shift.
Trucks ok really. Broke the headlight and corner lights. Already orded some used ones off ebay. Made a few calls to local wrecking yards, waiting to hear back about the doors.

In Northern Ohio up here been getting steadily annoying bit of snow, just enough to slush the roads and have to snap the wipers to knock off the ice. Didn't do to bad for a days driving, just no fast acceleration, due to slippage, but found putting a heavy duty hydaulic jack over each wheel helps a lot and this way I don't have sand in the bed if the tubes break.

Repaired the cruse ON button
I bought this 2000 a month ago and the only problem with the interior was this missing ON button cover. A piece of rubber cut to fit then enough excess to slide under the horn button and I thought this worked well .
Just a small amount of super glue applied with a tooth pick along the outer radius then the excess under the horn button keeps it in place.

Well it actually snowed here today. The windshield was iced over pretty nice. EVen after 20 mins of warming up and defroster there was still a bunch a ice. Took a plastic putty knife to it, worked pretty well.
The door was frozen shut and I ended up cutting my finger (on the ice) trying to open it.
Keep in mind I'm only 25 miles north of Florida. Its never this cold and it never snows here!
