What CB radios are you using?

Since my McKinley sadly died last fall šŸ˜ž, I'm currently only using AM/FM with an Albrecht AE 6290 VOX.

I was actually planning to get a President George II this spring after much deliberation; it's apparently a bit better than the Superstar 3900. However, there are three new radios coming out soon from Albrecht, President, and Midland.

So I'll wait a bit longer.

I'm currently using a portable Lafayette Urano, but that will be replaced by a President Randy III+ before Easter.
 
Thunderpole TX handheld. Not snazzy but good enough attached to a mobile antenna. I've had 12 miles on the telescopic antenna from a big hill but more usual range on a handheld antenna is 2-4 miles.
 
Same, with the short rubber maybe 0.5 - 2 miles depending if it's inside a city or open field.
With a 54cm Albrecht Hyflex CL 27 around 30% more range,
With the 132cm telescope around 50% more range. From an 800m hill have had QSO's > 45km.
With my Lambda 1/2 attached to a tree on my hill, my rekord with 3.5W was 80 Km
