Yep the Silver Bullet was a total new one on me!Never m@de @ silver bullet
lol @t the Tom Collins sh@ken not stirred
It turned out to be (if memory serves cos I only ever made it the once) 3 shots of vodka over a typically American lot of ice followed by just a hint of Scotch. The blokey stood over me giving me instructions. He was very happy! ( I was a bit shocked at the triple vodka)!
And yes the only difference between a Gin Fizz and a Tom Collins is that you stir the Gin Fizz like crazy but you do the very opposite with a Tom Collins just trickling the charged water into the glass to keep it sparkling to the end!!!
so you get Barman of the week!!
Second that! And fab for convoys. We used to all have them in the Kit Cars when we went to France on our annual trips.Yes, yes you do! I think they are good for comms on a trip out as you can legally use them whilst driving
Looks like there is a Croatian CB club so you could have a look around

I have this one in my shack ready to go in the Mitzy. It is out of stock at present but as it is European/UK compatible you could use in in Croatia. https://moonrakeronline.com/midland-m-mini-usb-multi-cb-radio

I have two of the Midland mini units. They are discrete and are legal limit. I use a 5/8 wave coil loaded aerial (https://moonrakeronline.com/mini-tornado-stinger-cb-mobile-antenna-complete-kit)MY Old Landy ....I'm looking for a decent CB for camper, any suggestions please ?
I have a couple of am ones from years ago but suspect they will be obsolete by now
I also have a CRT 2m/70cm (as I have a licence) but they also make CBs which are very good but a bit more spendy!

The cheap ones are good enough for occasional use. They are all 12w max legal limit. The antenna makes the difference. Base loaded or mid loaded give the best results imho.I have a two way hand set but no licence
Would like to use cb over maybe 3 to five miles, going to Ireland touring in 3 weeks so something to play with
We use them on laning days and they work well. 3 to 5 miles is about their limit without some propagation
Just to add, 10m and 12m is very good during the day at the moment. Some people are hitting the states but I don't think they are playing by the rules with power
CB is 11m so some good distance can be achieved legally.

Thank you,
I remember sitting in my cab one night listening to some trucker in the states fading in and out , that was in the seventies
Back in the 70's if you had an AM set it would have been 100w and imported from the states or Japan. You can now use AM or FM legally at 12w with no license and even SSB is now legal.
It is just down to power and what you want it to do. Stay legal and you won't have a problem.
I seem to have re-materialised in 1980, sitting in a truck next to Rubber Duck ------
