If you had to pick a 40 SSB CB BASE purely on asthetics what would you choose?

I'm partial to this little known radio myself probably because dad's Pioneer stereo from the early 80s looked similar lol PACE 8193 base station cb radio but this is unobtanium due to price and rarity.



So real life obtainable has to Sears road talker 40 ssb 7100.

Gonna have to go with the CPI CP 2000 base.

The name alone gets my vote!!!

I would say for looks alone the Dak Mark X. I love those large meters.

I had a friend who had a stoner cb radio..... it was and probably still is all hype.... a 148 would run circles around it.

The Doctor did not understand the assignment. That's a 23 channel not eligible lol.

Base, 40 channel FCC?
The Midland 78-999 was a good looking base for back then.
