Looking to fit a small CB into the Diesel Liberty as space is scarce inside the cab and I'm looking at one of these:
http://www.emartinc.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=220 or something the like.http://www.buy.com/prod/cobra-19dxiv-40-channel-compact-cb-radio/q/loc/66357/90144327.html
My question is - Can you really get decent transmit/receive with one of these? Tuning the antenna and SWR is a must I know but even given those two variables can one of these little cheap units really go the distance?
I want to save space but if saving space means I won't get any longevity out of it there really is no point.
On another off-topic - I'm looking for a nice compact HAM as well. Gonna take my test soon and would be open to suggestions.
Tks,
- JPM
