I have noticed that marine VHF and railroad VHF have some overlap. At first I thought this was a bad idea and then I realized if there was a bridge accident it could be a good idea. If railroad goes full digital they lose that bridge accident interactive communication ability. Also if they use digital on the overlap frequencies it could be a very bad thing for emergency marine communication.
My CB radio has an EXT SPK and PA jack on the back. My Bearcat scanner has EXT SPK and a REC jacks. What is the difference between a PA and REC jack?
I recently bought and installed a President Bill. I like it; good value for the money, and it's tiny.
Just read that Cobra has successfully lobbied the FCC into allowing FM communication for the 40 CB channels: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-374114A1.pdf
What do you think?

I think they will sell more radios, that's about all this is about.

That will happen right after the GMRS license fee actually drops to $35.
It's already happening, Uniden is already working to make sure the FM option is in CBs by the end of the year.
Yeap.
Need something to push to get people to buy and use it.
Like when the extra channels came out. For MANY years, they were worthless, as there were so few people with radios that had them.
