They all bring back some wicked memories that really kick-started CB in this country.

Did they not also use Cobra and Realistic radios in the General Lee?

Yes you're right.
The reason i said that was i saw a picture of a guy that owned a general lee car with a general lee radio in and thought that's what they used for the show. My apologies

Here is a blink and you miss it.
Between 0.00 and 0.03 you see a hand held, a coffin shape mic in the back ground and a black box with a gold heatsink (a Zetagi amp maybe?)

For all those who remember the '80s British sitcom 'Terry and June', there was an episode called 'Eyeball Eyeball.' Terry ended up buying a couple of cb radios in that episode. I was trying to find it on YouTube without any luck.
