I had one with I was 22 but never did anything with it except repair a buch of the CBs back when they cost a lot of money. At that time I had never even seen a TV transmitter. Thought I wanted to get into the 2 way work so when signing up for the 2 nd class test it cost a dollar more for the First Class so took it and passed. It was not very difficult at all compaired to the 2 nd class.
Found I could make more working for a large company that had a good retirement plan. BAck then they wanted to pay about $ 6 an hour and no benefits for the 2 way repair work and I was maing $ 8 and a good retirement plan.
The CBs were done at home for extra money for a few years. Mostly just as a hobby.
