For free, so I know it isn't the best quality. But I have a spare PA speaker that I am going to take full advantage of.

Here is a picture of it....

It is a midland

that guy, so for free I am happy.

Only issue is the antenna. It has the "base" that screws on that needs another base on it. I believe is says something about single king or something. SO I need to know what I need to buy. I will get pics of that specifically latter on. But I am happy. Brother had it sitting in his appt.

Yes ma'am.

What would be a decent around town CB then? Not that I plan on upgrading, but for future search reference.
