    what type of 2-way radio is everyone using?

    it all depends on what everyone else is doing in your area. We all run cb's on the trail here, but some run ham radios for the other places they wheel. Get with who your gonna be running with, then decide. A cobra cb shouldnt let you down as long as you match it up with a good antenna, not...

    CB antennas on a topless Bronco?

    ive got a flat bracked, hoseclamped to my bumper, you can get em at any truckstop. They use them for mirror mounts, and i just ditched half. Get a whip antenna, i had a fiberglass, but the hurricanes broke it, i get much better reception with a whip, even when its tied down
