Which 10/11 meter mobile type CB radios offers "VERY GOOD" bleed-over
rejection ????

"Bleed-over" can be caused by two things. The first is by 'dirty'
transmitters that splatter their signal onto other channels, and there is
nothing you can do to avoid it. The second by radios with poor
selectivity, or 'adjacent channel rejection', which also has two causes:
poor design and poor alignment. Most AM radios have more than adequate
selectivity when properly aligned, but the cheaper radios usually perform
poorly. SSB has excellent adjacent channel rejection by design.

Hope that helps.

Good advice, some radios and antenna hook ups will bleed
right out of the box.
