Default I was just thinking ...

The cbers have made such a cesspool of 11 meters it can't be cleaned
up.

I was just thinking about the Citizen's Band and ways it can be improved.

1. Petition the FCC to give hams all privileges from 26 to 28 MHz.
2. Have a free "afterburner" session, and invite participants to
bring cheap CB amplifiers for destruction. Prizes to the one
which ignites first, etc.
3. Offer free "Polarization parties" to twist the beams of former
CB'ers over to horizontal. Awards for 5/8 wavelength whips
which are also changed over.
4. Eliminate the power restrictions on CB, and instead institute
a "Purity of emission" standard, to include language, common
sense, and experience factors.

Other suggestions welcome; the filing deadline for my petition is April
First.
