    Starting work on my rig

    I bought a 1993 Jeep for $4500 because I wanted to start overlanding. It has taken me a year to get to this point.

    Ditch the CB entirely or stow it?

    In my opinion it is never a waist of money spent on communication and safety

    Now that changes everything. That should work! I have never tried it bc my tuner is to big to carry with me in a 2 door keep

    That will work if you tune it correctly but if you tune it for 10 it will put your SWRs out of whack on 11. It will still transmit and receive without tuning but it will fry the radio if used for an extended time

    Hello, My main rig is a 1993 Jeep YJ. 4.0 with about 5.5 inch lift on 33s. I am relatively new to overlanding but not new to camping.

    I have all three in my jeep. I never know what will work if I need to get help. GMRS has only been good for me with the group of guys I go with. CB and Ham can almost always get someone outside the group. Especially is you do a little research on local repeaters for the area you are going to.
