I put up a very long post about CB the past week or so.

A CB is a worthy start for mobile radio. And there’s no need to skimp on a high-quality installation. Next to none of you has heard or used such (point being, start fresh). Doesn’t matter your step-uncle was a truck driver, those vehicles are flat difficult to make decent much less exceptional. And the nephew with an antenna on the pickup headache rack is no better.
As to Ham:
An Icom-718 or a Yaesu ft450d aren’t terrifically expensive as starters for Amateur, especially used. Have a look and see if either appeal. (It’s the antenna system where things get more complicated ).
1). Radio is magic.
2). No corporate intercessor.
3). Others are just as decent as you, give them the chance.
