There's some crazy people, communicating with people you don't know and never met. wink


God help us,

I remember my nephew trying to get a response from his so he could show me how it worked. No one was answering and then his mum decided to have a go and the airwaves came to life in reponse to a female voice! Nothing changes!

Feel free to E Mail me if you can update any of these details (such as anybody who has passed away since the 1980s, etc..).

Enjoyed the AM CB at that time,my handle was Soldering Iron you can guess why,with a Ham which had a homemade roger bleep,so people knew who I was as soon as I came on,I wasn't always around so a mate of mine used it,it ended up with quite a few crystals so it had quite a few bands.

There's no reason why it shouldn't be active, it's not like it could be replaced by the internet. It's a shame if no-one uses it any more.
