Moab question

[AlaskaVX]

Do a lot of people run CB's down there? We normally just use FRS? FMS? radios, real cheap and can be found anywhere. Not enough people have CB's to do trail runs with them. If you haven't experienced a trail ride with radios and an experienced wheeler you haven't gone trail riding. It just makes it that much more fun, able to raz people when they are stuck on something or you can point out things others may not see etc. etc. all from the comfort of your driver seat. Everyone is always informed of what's going on, it's not just follow the leader.

Scott, I'll be talking to you with my Garmin 120 GPS. T

Tell me if I'm wrong, but can't you put the same frenquency on your walkie- talkie as the CB?

Peace.

CBs are mandatory on the trails to keep together and informed. They are so cheap now it is no big deal.

Do they have hand held CB's now. I don't want to install one in my VX,also what Tomdietrying said Don't those Garmin's have a CB channel/freqency?

[Moncha]

I have Yoke AVS S/T's on my VX and it did just fine on the trails last year. Like Bumble said, there's plenty of folk that will be there so, you shouldn't have a problem catching a ride if you end up not driving.

Here's the CB I installed. Very small and discrete and with a magnetic mount, simple. Click the pic for more...


CB's are isted on the mandatory list by the 'ZuZoo crew for saftey more than anything. Some of up use FRS also for side conversation without interrupting the main channel.

Here's a prep list from a previous year

what is the true answer...does the VX spare qualify as "full sized"? I suspect not as that is the answer Todd Adams gave, but I have seen that it DOES qualify from others....what's the scoop?

Do an ebay search for "handheld cb" and you will find many handhelds for under $40!
