Default CB Radio's in Eastern Europe....

Back in April, I was in Poland (Both in warsaw and the countryside) with my girlfriend, visiting her folks there. To my amazement, the number of cars with CB's was incredible....Every single electronic store carries them, along with a full line of antenna's. There equivalent to Best Buy would be "Saturn" its an electronic superstore, and I must have counted about 15 different CB's for sale. It may not be popular in North America anymore, but in eastern europe, its common and thriving. As you can imagine, there are MANY area's without cell phone coverage, especially outside of the major cities, and CB is King there.. I had a flashback to the 80's..it was great!
