Yes, I asked him about that. It has no cable inside and looks like it has threads for a removeable antenna which is not present. The husband of the original owner had a truck dealership of some kind(or something like that) so the present owner thinks it was for a CB. I couldn't find any evidence of a CB being mounted anywhere.
