Ya outta' go for your HAM ticket ? You can talk to people from all over the world, pretty easy online study course. four or five weeks and I aced mine. nobody really on CB anymore with all the smart phones, maby some Ol' Dawgs here and there but it's a dying art,.. another thing added to my list of lonely and getting older. When conditions are good I got as far west as Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia. Northern Territories and Alaska, Jamaica, and just about every U.S. state ! We used to exchange post cards for confirmation, it was really fun. HAM is pretty cordial compared to being an outlaw CB'er, everything is really governed as far as how many frequency privilege's and power you can run.
