Marty it's a Uniden 78 Elite, Uniden IMO still makes the best CB radio out there. It does not have SSB, they discontinued the Grant last year  but I do have a XL and a LT so that is good. They offered a $40 mail in rebate so I was able to pick up the radio with Peak and Tune from my Tech in VA and an adjustment to run a linear and payed for shipping. It is a very sweet radio I have to say. Here's a pic. 
Yes it is backlit for easy seeing at night, very sweet, now I just have to fit in time to use it with all the others lol.... C

So true but we are still out there! Radios have gotten quite nice over the years, I can link you to my favorite CB forum if you would like to read up on them. Wow a 23 channel job, you are an Old Timer lol....  I would love to see a pic if you ever get one! I am on the road for school as you know and use the radio extensively. I also like to shoot a little skip when I have time. Here are my two latest radios that I picked up in the fall one for my B-day and one was a replacement for a radio I was having trouble with so my tech changed it out for the orange one. My tech did the blue and orang backlighting for me as a favor, very sweet. 
The blue one is a collectors item now and no longer made, the orange model is a walk the dog and kick the cat screamer lol.... Lets just say with what I have sitting under the blue cloth on the floor in the pics and the significant antenna on my roof, you can hear me coming from a long way off if I want you too lol.... C
