CB radio and antenna installation in Salt Lake City Area

We need to buy a CB radio and antenna for an upcoming rally to Mexico.
We haven't had a CB since the 1980's, so we're doing a lot of research.
Do folks have a recommendation for a shop or truck stop in the Salt Lake City area?
Thanks,

  • Yes, I am very happy with the Midland. It is an excellent CB radio.

    The best thing about it is this. That you can use it in the truck or as a handheld.



    all the parts of the kit:



    You can get an antenna installed and use it with this model of radio.

    I just like being able to have a couple of ways to use the unit (base and mobile)

  • Thanks. We've not heard great things about the portable radios, but you're happy with it?
    We need to have an antenna that isn't magnetic since we'll be using it with a motorhome.
  • I don't know that you'd need to have one installed.

    I use a nice Midland handi-talky w/ a portable Cobra antenna (handles up to 300 watts)

    You may want to explore this route.
