    If one wanted external speakers for their CB couldn't you run the 3.5mm audio cable (male to male) out of the back of the cb (external jack) to the aux in the vehicle? Then go to apps for aux and have your cb sound come through your truck speakers?

    Yep u sure can I do it. I have both a external speaker under seat and the 1/4 to 1/4 to the aux plug. This way I can listen to the radio when no cb chatter.

    Something I just thought of: the CB jack is more than likely mono, and the input on the Taco is Stereo. Does the CB come through all speakers, or just one side? I would get very annoyed if it only came out one side, but I wouldn't be surprised Toyota has something behind the scenes that corrects that issue.

    To me it sounds like both sides.

    how would someone run that setup but play music off your phone via BT or AUX cable? I like the idea of having my music stop and start after an incoming and outgoing transmission if that's even possible. Or what if I just plug in some extended headphones to the CB have one in my ear and have music playing on the normal truck speaker. Seems a little extra. Or is it just better to buy a little plugin speaker and turn down the music when there is chatter

    Anything else is over-complicating, the way I see it.
