Quote2m SW radio with SSB is recommended
QuoteGil, the link for the CB handheld seems to take me to a radio that has SSB, but it looks like an AM radio, not a CB radio. Am I misinterpreting the ad?

QuoteI would expect the answer to be yes, but I don't know if there are handheld units that have SSB.
QuoteHat tip to gil again for the mention of that book. It's a gotta-have and has been worth every penny.
QuoteGil, you recommended SSB. What is SSB and why is it important?

QuoteWhat you need is a Tesla coil going in the background for ambience.
