I took delivery of a very exciting parcel today...
Can you tell what it is?
That's a big 10-4 breakers! Er, yes, it's a CB. Specifically (top left to bottom right) a quick release bayonet fitting to allow me to remove the aerial from the roof with ease when not in use or when doing tight lanes, b) various cables, c) an SWR meter (for tuning my aerial once its on the car - I don't pretend to understand this stuff yet), d) a gutter mount (all wrapped up), e) a 'Thunderpole Orbiter' aerial, and f) the CB unit itself:
I put a lot of time, research and thought into my choice of the T-1000 model. It wasn't just because it is the designation of the liquid-alloy terminator in Terminator 2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-1000). Definitely not just for that reason, no sir.
It looks good! I'll be putting it all together in the car this weekend:
