CB radios - Do you use one?
Wondering if a CB radio is still beneficial. Used them in the 70s, but has the cell phone made them dinosaurs?

I used to use a CB radio for years - mainly for road conditions. Haven't used one for at least 7 years. However, over the last few months I have remarked to my wife that a CB would be handy as we sat in backed up traffic.
Low and behold, my SIL gave me a CB radio for Christmas. I installed it a couple days ago. Noise on all channels required a LOT of squelch. Not sure if the issue is antenna, radio (Uniden) or environment. We do plan on keeping the squelch turned up fairly high unless we encounter a traffic "situation".
