My altime fav CB was a Superstar 2000, 4 banks of 50 channels but with logic drops to bring into line with UK40 and CEPT for ease of use.
I can't recall why I sold it _________________ Trooper Citation MK4 3.0TD LWB (DOHC) Black.

mostly its on the tractor at work, there are jumpers inside so that it will only operate on the legal 40 band, but the local contractor uses 26.000 so it a pain swappin them all the time, gonna get a legal 40 after ive changed the tyres and shocks _________________ atb kevin

Most burners require a standard 4 watt input so be carefull if the rig has been tweeked, also its not illegal to own one
On another note, there isnt many people on there now so its not really needed _________________ |

touch wood it never gets hot, usualy when its on the tractor its on all day and barely gets warm, its a good rig but there hardly no1 on the standard 40, get a few foreigners on it but realy need a decent aerial and burner, (only use a thunderpole on the tractor and a nightstick or firestick when its in the trooper) _________________ atb kevin
