Default Complete CB Radio Set-Up

Hey all,

I recently removed my Uniden Bearcat 880 citizens band (CB) radio from my truck. Hopefully someone here can get some use out of it, its been in my truck for 2 years and only been used about 3 times. Comes with all hardware and accessories needed to mount and operate. 18' dual coaxial cable. Two bedrail mounts. Two 3 foot Firestik 1000 watt antennas. Uniden Bearcat 880 radio and microphone. PA horn (not pictured as its in a box in my storage) also included in sale. I also created a custom mounting bracket for the 04-08 F150's with the center console interior. It was used in my truck to mount in place of the ash tray for an OEM look.

See provided link for specs.

All and all if you were to go out and buy everything new your looking at around $300.

Radio $159
Antennas $30 ea.
Coax $25
Mounts $12 ea.
PA horn $35

LOCATED IN TWIN CITIES, MINNESOTA
ASKING PRICE $150
SHIPPING INCLUDED.

That's a great price for all that. Uniden makes some awesome radios. I think this is a good deal (without having looked up the price on that radio currently, but radio + stake hole mounts + cable + FireStiks for $150 is a good setup)

Honest to god, I'd jump on this because it would be a perfect fit for my truck...

Except the only places to mount those antennas would make at least half their length hit my garage every night when I pulled in.

That's a hell of a deal.

You can get a couple quick disconnect mounts for them. They go between the stake hole mount and the antenna.
