CB’s can be invaluable!

This past week was a real wake-up call for some folks as they were caught in severe flooding across the United States.  My heart breaks for those who experienced loss as a result of the flooding.  As I watched the searchers on television, I realized just how important a simple CB Radio is – even nowadays!!  Over the years, CB Radios have seen their peaks and valleys in popularity, but have seemingly come out on the top of the heap as they are more popular in today’s world than they ever have been.  I can only assume that those many rescuers were using communication radios of some type – either VHF or CB Radio to communicate with each other during their search.  It’s heart breaking that the results of the search were not more positive.  Certainly my thoughts and prayers go out those lost this past weekend in those floods.  Be prepared to help in a moments notice – consider a CB radio for your vehicle or ATV.  Happy Boater.
