Do any of you have one of these radios? I've probably owned a couple hundred CB radios, and this one is my favorite! It has beautiful receive on AM, and SSB sounds almost as good. FM is a dream!

I use the stock mic with a Heil HC-5 element fitted to it, and have been told that it is the best sounding AM rig around!

If ya'll have ever owned or do own one of these radios, what do you think about it? I'm just curious to read about other folks experience with it as I am so happy with mine! If this radio is not your favorite, what is?

Have a great weekend!

Those Washingtons are nice bases! If I can ever find a good one locally, I'm going to get it.

Good deal - There is a guy that I talk to on channel 28 who has a Washington for sale. He said that it was in really nice shape, and that it had been "fired-up" with his magic screwdriver. (I get kind of nervous about the magic screwdriver jobs...)

Anyway, I'll probably take a look at it this weekend, and if it isn't too "screwdrivered up" I'll get it! They are great radios, and it's too bad that Uniden doesn't make them anymore...
