Marine Radios Review

Occasionally I fill in as a local school bus driver for the local school district.  All of the buses are equipped with CB Radios which are crackling to life constantly as I drive the students home.  I really had no idea that they were so heavily used for this purpose!  I guess it just goes to show that just because we aren’t aware of something happening, it has no bearing on just what is really going on out in the world.  Using a CB Radio has become common place of all of the drivers and is commonly used for everything from reminding the bus driver that an instrument was left at school to the notification that another bus needs assistance.  This “fad” of the early 60′s is still very alive and well!  Not only is it alive and well, the quality of these radios and the speakers they are played through have reached a new level of sophistication.  Let’s sit back and enjoy the strides that have been made with these units!  Certainly a lot of boaters are including a CB Radio as a basic necessity when outfitting their boats.   Have a great weekend – see you Monday!
