The CBs are also widely used around Europe by the truck drivers.
Useful as you will get a lot of good info, if you know what to listen, as they are a lot on the road...

I'm not old enough to have had one when they were so popular but I enjoy using it even with all the technology around today!

Yes CB works ok in Freelander 2, no issues with interference. Remember there are never problems, just new challenges

I have a portable one which doesn't require any install. I used it with its own antenna and it's ok if you just want to communicate in a compact group. If you want to hear and be heard over a longer distance, you need an external antenna.
