police vehicles have radio repeaters for portable radios officer?

It depends on how jusrisdictions DONT few. For them using a repeater, should change their phones to a different frequency for the repeater to collect then the transponder transmits the "variable". Some smaller departments like mine DONT want to spend the extra money on the individual, so I put three or four transponders at the same time thruout the county officials its use for their part, are closer.

Cb Radio Mounts

cb radio mounts
Where I can mount a CB radio in a small car as an escort and what type of antenna I use on the trunk

I do not know what type of unit Basic I do, but I'm bidding on a radio at this time, I have a 1998 Ford Escort ZX2 with not much space for all ideas will be very useful

Probably the mount on the side of the console under the dashboard on the passenger side. In this way, you are not going to kick your leg … but you can see your passengers! :) As to an antenna, uses a magnetic media so well that you want to remove or hide the park, or riding the trunk lip if you want it permanent. Do not forget to tune in a better performance.
