How are the construction sites, CB Shops, and truck stops
doing all that advertisement on Channel 19 !!

CB Wizard™ system is an unmanned CB radio transmitter
designed to automatically broadcast ad messages

The CB Wizard™ is a CB transceiver that allows users to record three ad messages up to 18 seconds long and can be transmitted every 30, 60, or 90 seconds. To avoid interfering with other CB users, the device monitors CB transmissions on the selected frequency and when it detects a lull, a ad message is automatically broadcast..The CB Wizard™ has an effective communication range of 1 to 4 miles. • Although advertise messages can be played on any band, channel selection for the CB Wizard™ should be customized to a specific area or intended audience (channel 19 is the most commonly used CB frequency).. CB Wizard™ Systems range in price from $4,000 for handheld units to $7,000.

Unlike traditional Highway Advisory Radio (HAR), the use of CB radio frequencies does not require a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) permit.
Disclaimer:(The above was posted on a state govt. site i don't think your allowed to halfway advertise on CB Radio even though its been done since the early 1970's)

Truck Stops aren't going to payout $4,000 dollars for a CB.

HERE IS WHAT THOUSANDS OF TRUCK STOPS DO!!

Have a sweet talking female waitress with a high pitched voice
every ten minutes broadcast an ad over a CB Radio.

In house high tech CB shop could make a super cheap clone of the $4,000 CB with a few cheap parts like The Radio Shack™ 20 second digital voice recorder 276-1323 or any CB type DVR (Digital Voice Recorder) will do, with a free trial Ham radio repeater PC software by EchoStation and you'll need RigBlaster Plus usb hardware to connect the 100 millwatt CB Walkie talkie. This software-hardware can be used for a computer controlled HT hand held CB by way of a laptop (Older windows 98 laptop with USB will do fine) ..

This was the most simple on the air set up of all.. A CB DM-5000 Echo microphone with a 20 second ad message recorder-playback. The waitress would walk by listening, no one using the CB channel she would click the microphone (instant on the air truck stop advertising on channel 19) "investment less than $50.00"..
