All I have now is VHF but will be slowly cruising southward in my 28'
S2 sailboat from Marsh harbor. Next stop is Spanish Wells. So, do I
really NEED SSB to get weather forecasts? I would not mind having one
but the PRICE, YIKES. and then there is the matter of an antenna. IS
it possible to find a used SSB for reasonable price? I don't yak on
the radio anyway and have probably not used my cell phone more'n 5
times in the last 6 months.




Don't waste your money on a SSB.
