Anyone running CB's in their truck these days?

"Bleached Gold" I'm thinkin'. In celebration of painting my original Dark Gold truck to White!

Have another question! I've been perusing the web for a radio and doing some reading. I'm probably going to get a "Cobra 29LTD 40-Channel CB Radio" They have it local at the Ham Radio outlet in Burbank. Anyhow, I was also reading the reviews on Amazon. I looked at other accessories on Amazon and some reviews.

To the point. I looked at this coax cable: Below the review is the link. Is this true, could this happen? I assume reviewer actually meant during calibration. Can this happen? What do you think? I'm thinking to piece my system together from Ham radio outlet, so I can make sure I get quality connections!

Here's the guys review!

Garbage. I installed this on my truck's cb when I relocated it. The cheap plastic that connects to the cord that was longer than any other I've used before broke. I thought, no big deal. But upon further inspection, I found the metal inside had also broken. Not a huge deal except I discovered this when tuning my radio. The damage was done, however, as it fried my radio and is permanently distorted. Thus, rendered useless. Installed a few weeks outside the return date. Expensive lesson learned. I'll never use this or any of their products again.
