What pa speaker/horn are any of you using with your cb radio? Are you just running the normal 15w or are you going larger and amplifying? My wife said she wants to be able to use the pa function on our uniden bearcat pro505xl so here i am in search of a speaker/horn that doesnt suck and can be heard clearly.

OB 18873 - looking for advice on communications gear that will allow me to work and play! I am a
PM that works remotely and I want to take the show on the road where cell service isn’t guaranteed. What gear have you found that will allow for teleconferencing and laptop communication / presentations via SKYPE?

@Boostpowered I don't have experience with PA speakers but would imagine a 15w speaker mounted behind the grille so that it isn't muffled as much by engine noise would work ok... unless the wife is wanting to use it to yell at people as she drive's down the road, then get the loudest one you can. :tearsofjoy:

Thats exactly what she wants to do, yell at people who sit at stop lights too long on their phone.
