Communications Equipment / Radios
Who has CB/ ham/ or radio scanners in their vehicles, and why? I've been considering the three for a while, and ended up ordering a CB setup last night. I don't have a ham license and don't want to...

For ham, with a dual band antenna, would I be better with a ~2' antenna in the middle of the roof, or a ~4' antenna sitting on the truck bed that comes to about the same height? Since they would have roughly the same total height, it seems the 4' would be better in some situations, but would there realistically be much difference?
Decided to go with a Larsen NMO2/70B on a CV2ANTNCG fender mount.
Larsen NMO-K for cabling and Kenwood TM-D710G radio.
Trying to decide whether to take the license test or buy the radio first, but at least I know what I'm buying. Looking at possibly buying the ARRL flash cards and going to take the test in about a month, so might go ahead and order everything.
