FCC Approved CB ?

[yama junk owna]

This may not be the best section to ask this question but, we are always yelling back and forth about exports and the rules, so I think it fits in maybe. Anyway does anybody still build a 40 channel, am , ssb, 4 watt - 12 watt FCC approved base radio anymore?
I know there is still a few mobile am and maybe a few ssb radios still built, ( Did Midland drop their ssb radio ? ) that have the sticker on the back, just wondering.

I've always wondered what is soo attractive about a Base(other than the direct plug in the wall convenience)??

I've always used mobiles as bases, but I really don't see no purpose for a CB base??

Looks mainly.They do look a bit better and neater and there is no separate power supply cluttering up the desk.I would prefer a base radio over a mobile anyday for home use.I'm a bit of a neat freak when it comes to my station layout.

Personal choice I guess.

My question was not so much about base or mobile as it was about the radios being FCC legal. I was wondering if the, lets say, Ranger base radio has the FCC sticker on the back of it or is it like the exports with no approvial? Thats what I was wanting to know

The Texas Ranger 696F SSB base radio has the FCC sticker on the back.
