I use a Icom 706MKII-G and set the memory channels to the 40 CB channels.
This way it's easy to stay on channel and change channels while mobile. For
an antenna..I use a 102" stainless-steel whip on a ball mount. Get pretty
good signal reports.

I've been running a Cobra 29 WX ST for the last four years paired with a
Wilson 'Little Wil'. It's my first radio and its done alright, but its
time
for an upgrade.

I'm looking at a getting a hold of a PC68XL. It seems to be the best
radio
offered in a small compact size.. I'm also thinking of tossing my Little
Wil and getting either a K40 or Wilson 5000.

Might I be better off upgrading into a AM/SSB radio instead? Something
like
the older GX979 from Galaxy?

Any suggestions?
