If you don't require a CB, I have a really good one. Delphi concert class radio with USB port to play your own music. Weighs about 19 pounds. the size is about 18 inches wide, 12 inches deep @ the bottom, 4 inches deep @ the top, & antenna self contained. Has handle in the middle for easy lifting. I used it most days in my city tractor. Sat right on top of my Yeti 25 qt cooler. With Velcro on top of the cooler, & the bottom of the box. A really sweet set up. 8 ft power cord with alligator clips. Respond to [email protected] if interested. Very, very portable radio box. von.I am looking for a slipseat box that is already built and ready to plug in and go? Anyone know of one that is available?

Haha haven't run one in over ten years.But.......but........you NEED a CB radio!
How about ya rubber duck.I even have one in my car,........Why? I don't know......inertia, I guess.....Took the one out of the radio box I left in my city tractor..........Piled up in the basement with about 4 other CB radios in various conditions of reliability.......
Hey! Someday the Smithsonian will beat a path to my door,................They may even need a docent at the museum to explain to wondrous crowds exactly how these things worked.........
Breaker, Breaker...........
Come to think of it,...........I even know how to shift a Duplex with one hand the proper way,...........and no clutch,......
Th' Hell with being a volunteer docent,......I want a sizeable salary........
They can put my Truckdriving CB and Shifting show on display right outside the Dinosaur room..........
Canary, I see you didn't mention getting both sticks in neutral pulling a hill with that B model, (embarrassing)
"Of course I wouldn't know, I've never done that"
I can't say I've.....never.....done that. I can only state that there is a far greater possibility of that very thing happening with a Duplex,....as opposed to a RoadRanger transmission.......It would be embarrassing in the extreme, especially in heavy city traffic, when the driver gets flustered and starts pushing sticks around, hoping the terrible grinding noise attracting so much attention from pedestrians to the point where they're catcalling: " Grind me a pound while you're at it!",.....would quit and the truck wouldn't stall while it lurched into gear........Oh no! The blush on your face would damn near be permanent, and would only fade once you reached the city limits........
I think maybe as bad, pulling a mountain,single lane road, just come to a complete stop and get the boxes back in gear, you know what kind of "cussing" is going on behind you.
"Thank goodness we didn't have CBs in those days"
All ya can do. Stop & start out again. With 2 shifters & 16 possible gears to run in, once you loose your speed it is hard to guess the gear & find the right RPM to get it in the hole. Canary was right.I think maybe as bad, pulling a mountain,single lane road, just come to a complete stop and get the boxes back in gear, you know what kind of "cussing" is going on behind you.

Even better. von.I always preferred "Hemorrhoid with a Polaroid" myself.......just as descriptive.....
