 Speaking of radiosYall ever considered putting a cb radio in your rig? We do alot of frogging at night and running lines and I figured it would be a good idea.

Re: Speaking of radios VHF seems like it would reach further than a CB

Re: Speaking of radios Are you wanting one hard wired or hand held? Hand held is only good for short range because it lacks the antenna. I have a 8' antenna on the Robalo & have a hand held in my ditch bag.
I personally like my Raymarine VHF, I have a very expensive hand held VHF that emits a GPS signal & emergency broadcast feature. I have a cheaper version of that one for the Gator-Tail. Any of these are good... http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/st ... ogId=10001 _________________ GTB 1860 w/ 2019 GTR40XD-HO |
