I need to get a CB back in my truck. I bought a Uniden 980 and found out about the screen dimming issues a few years out of warranty and parts seem to be unavailable.
We heard a call driving through PA "anyone have a cell phone charger?" and came around a curve and a big truck was stopped off the side of the road. Apparently the truck lost all electrical power and his cell phone battery was dead. We let him charge his phone while using one of our phones to call his dispatcher.
We've heard of backups due to road closures and accidents and were able to detour. PA DOT likes to close a lane on a holiday weekend to re-paint lines so you have the traffic due to lanes being reduced and the extra holiday traffic together. We've been stuck in multiple hour backups without CB.
I haven't looked at GMRS. Is the license for an address, can I get a license at my home in Ohio and still use it on the farm in WV?
