CB’s have come a long way!
CB’s have sure come a long way since I was a youngster! I can remember the latest and greatest thing on the market was a 2-way wrist radio like the one in the Dick Tracy cartoon in the Sunday paper. Wow – did I ever date myself just now!! These finely tuned instruments are not just for kids anymore – what we used to call a walkie talkie is now a very useful piece of communication equipment whether you’re on the job or simply out on the tractor, etc. Many hunters won’t even consider going into the woods for deer hunting or some other type of hunting without a CB Radio hanging on his/her belt! They have become an essential part of the survival equipment and are considered “basic” to a lot of folks. Don’t limit yourself to these uses. I’ve see people use them in malls, talking to their traveling companions in the car in front of them, or folks just wanting to find out what their fishing buddies are catching on the other side of the lake.
