Wow - you guys are quite serious about your communication devices .... your other half aka wife must be equally happy and benefited ...
The only reason why I might upgrade is for the 2-channel monitor or chatter noise monitor. I am using an older but small Realistic 40-channel CB where whatever channel I am on that is it - manual ;p
BTW I think I will order the Wilson antenna and give it a try. Photog's suggestion to slip around the door frame may work - worst cause is I will pinch the cable or it will always get wet as it will run on top of the weather seal.
