This was my very first radio which was lost years ago. I have since obtained 2 others. This was the best performing CB I ever owned. I remember going to the car and turning it on in the early morning hours just to hear the skip roll in. The antenna was a grey Francis 50 Amazer. I had the antenna system tuned well and I could talk point to point roughly 30 miles on 4 watts. Absolutely great performer. I have both working and will be restoring them. This radio led me to a career in Electronics and I have still not lost the bug. Now a Ham and on GMRS also. Worth the effort.
