Apple just released a new interesting product to track your key or handbag using the "AirTag" key chain. Thinking out of the box I am tempting to use it as a motorcycle tracker in case if my CB gets stolen.
Instead of purchasing a motorcycle tracker ($150) plus paying monthly admin fees, why not get the Apple "AirTag" and leave it somewhere on the bike (maybe under the gas tank) and when your CB is missing, you can ping it using your apple phone.
It is a one time purchase (roughly $30) and the beauty is that there is no monthly admin fee and it uses bluetooth technology and any apple cellphone in the vicinity to transmit its location.
The only draw back is that you have a maximum of 3 days to bring you cellphone close to it before it starts "beeping". So to reset the clock, you have to bring your paired cellphone within close proximity and it is good for another 3 days.
