Hi y'all. Just signed up. Getting back to CB. Haven't been since 80s. In the market to get a setup to use while traveling for road conditions, traffic and weather and can use some help with my wish list. Having been away for 40+ years i've been scouring the internet to research. Looks like mostly same brands and a few new. I first started looking at units with ssb but decided against it since I'm sensing not much chatter there. But i want a unit that I won't have to upgrade again. After looking at reviews of various brands, I'm thinking about a President Johnson II paired with a magnet mount whip since it's for my car. I'm not a trucker. Might get an swr meter for more accurate calibration. Haven't quite decided on the antenna yet.

Anyway, this is what I am initially thinking. Would appreciate any feedback.
