Looking for CB radio advice

Buy an older style Cobra, Uniden or Midland with a matched antenna.

If you are lucky, they will have been tuned to each other and even better the radio will have been gone through and tweaked.(the cheap/bad resistors and capacitors replaced with the nice ones)

If you ask around trucking company's repair shop, you might get lucky and find that one of or maybe even a few of the mechanics are CB Radio enthusiasts. They might be able to offer to sell you a matched setup and install it too.

I do not recommend any sort of external amplification. If the radio setup is dialed in/tuned/tweaked, they should have plenty of transmitting power already. We are talking about enough power that when you key up near a microphone system, it will bleed over. EX; going through the McDonalds drive through-the person taking the order always gets a kick out of "theres boogers in the burgers"-not to mention the customers can hear it over the speaker system in the restaurant.
