Second Hand rigs?

[Tony T]

Before I go and do what I did 28 years ago(buy everything in sight), is there a market place where used equipment is sold? I am trying to introduce my kids to CBing, but don't want to blow a lot straight away.

Any help or suggestions appreciated.

ebay

But think twice and investigate sellers before hitting "bid".

old fashioned Team radios were notorious

I am 16 years old but from what I hear and from what I have heard CB's used to be amazing all those years ago.

Looking at Convoy The Movie, that seems to be the correct way to use CB's.

The best way to chat on CB's are mobile as you meet a mixture of good CB'ers who will certainly give you a copy!

From what I hear, in America they are very strict about CB's. They only allow truckers and people in cars use channel 19. Thats what some friends in America who do Custom Harvesting have told me anyway

I whish it wa slike that here in the UK but I dobht it will ever be like that!

I'm still waiting to see Smokey and the Bandit, I've been watching the Dukes of Hazzard to learn on CBs... ^.^

Mmm, well, don't buy anything Fidelity either Or old fashioned Team radios, which were notorious

why not buy fidelity cb's at the moment i've got

Fidelity 1000fm
Fidelity 2000fm
Fidelity 2001fm

I've never had a single problem with them apart from the internal speakers are a bit poo in a landrover, but easily remered, i've had more problems with my audioline

[Basilsparents]

It's always been the other way around for me... my Fidelities fell apart (most prominently the 3000 FM which is on the table in parts at the moment) and the one Audioline that I've owned is still going strong, despite having had a very very hard life However, if Fidelities work better for you, I'll retract the advice

[Round Baler]

Lost Sheep.....I agree with you when you are in the range of Coatbridge.

Next time you hear them arguing, point them to this news article and tell them to either put up or shut up!
