Its what they sell and call a CB radio.    Buy one for a couple bucks,  a few
modifications and bingo your set.   Quits working toss it in the trash.
And if you dont do mods you dont even need a license..

The trouble is a CB radio isn't going to introduce law abiding hams to long distance communication since that is an illegal use of CB. Most of the people I'm trying to attract are emergency services people trying to serve their communities. They need experience operating under bad conditions, but many of them don't know it and won't find out until "the bad thing happens"*.
