Do you think is worth to have a CB or ham radio installed for this trip? (I would get a technician class license, if ham makes sense)

Peter,
Unless you are a citizen of the US or are in the US on an immigration visa, you are not eligible to obtain a US Ham Radio License.
If you decide to operate without a license, you will be caught (we are very protective of our spectrum space) and you will be fined $10,000 and imprisoned for one year for each day of your illegal operation.
