    OLD AM CB RADIOS

    I agree about the Uniden Pro 510 and 520s being great little radios. I always grab them when I find them at garage sales etc. But sorry I'm keeping mine.

    Mobile radio suggestions

    Kenwood has some older radios that are 2 meter all mode. I have one, think it's a TR 751A. The older radios a usually pretty affordable. Make sure you do your research though, some will not do repeaters.

    I need your input.

    So I just picked up a Sears RoadTalker 40. This thing is still in the box, and everything in the box is still in plastic. There are tags on it still. It really looks like it has never been out of the box. It even has the sears price tag on the box. My question is, if I sell it do I sell it...
