As far as 23 channel or 40 channel. If its made in the 70's 99% of the people will have no clue if its a 23 or 40 channel radio. My Kris XL-50 is a 40 Channel while my Gladiator is 23 channel. I m still not sure which one I will use.
I also have a NOS Tube amp.

Channel 19 is the Highway channel so with a 23 or 40 channel you will hear the CB Chatter.
Driving your truck you will get into conversations with the truckers.

Thanks, I'll post what I get here. I'm going to tack a CB onto my charging system and battery upgrade.

Thanks again!
