I keep an old Realistic 40 channel base unit here at home to listen to once in a while, there's not much of anything going on at 27 Mhz in my area though. I occaisionally here chatter between truckers, but not too often. I live on a stretch of 2-lane highway that's some ways off of the interstate. If I were closer to I-55 or I-40 I'd probably recieve a lot more, but I'd also hear a lot of overmodulated crap as well.
