I don't like CB or FRS radios as they tend to attract weirdos to my vehicle. On more than one occasion, calling to talk to somebody resulted in somebody stalking our vehicle and just being creepy with us. I would worry that calling out for distress out in the Mojave Desert would result in some weirdo coming out to get us. Maybe I'm just paranoid because of our two experiences. I don't like CB's. I feel that they make me a mark.
"Hey this person is stranded and helpless out in the desert."
I wish I had more faith in people.
