I joined to read more threads and pick up advice. Back in the 90s as a kid we all had radios and it seemed easier with less interference using cheap mag mounts and mostly stock radios. Now as a local aggregate hauler it's becoming a useful tool and a bit of a hobby.
I'll probably be getting a ham license and definitely setting up a little base station for SHTF between a few family households. Currently running a galaxy 959 with a wilson antenna on the truck. Thanks for posting over the years, I've learned just from reading other people's questions.
