You damned sure used to.

When I mucked around with CB briefly in the

70's.

Why did you quit?

Too many idiots, jammers, channel control

freaks, amp users who think they need several
hundred watts to talk to another idiot a couple

of miles down the street,


The only problem you mention with which I agree is the last concerning
local amp use.
The rest of the dilemmas you mention are self-created by not exercising
your freedom of choice, beginning with the channel selector.



kids learning how to expand their 4 letter word
vocabulary on the air etc.


You feel kids learn profanity from the cb?
As opposed to the words they learn on TV and in school, on the street
and elsewhere?
Damn,,,what word can one learn on cb that hasn't been over-used on tv
and in the school yard?

You find six meter that much
more entertaining?


Better class of people.


I don't agree with such practiced elitism, but understand your position
perfectly, as many, many hammies take the same stance toward nocode
operators and view them as appliance operators and feel the better class
of people involved in hammie radio does not begin until one surpasses
nocode status.


Anyway I'm more interested in microwave

stuff. Spent a couple of hundred bucks at the

Ohio Maumee swap the other weekend

getting a Narda SMA directional coupler

(model 4203-10 2-18GHz), a Omni Spectra

directional coupler (p/n 2020-6605-10

1.0-2.0GHz), K&L SMA transfer relays

(MS-28-SMA-TTL), a WJ SMA mixer (M1J),

and a used M/A-Com 8.134 GHz brick

oscillator (p/n PLX12-01). I'm going to try

sooner or later to retune the brick oscillator to

use on the Ham 10 GHz band. I already have

an FT-817 multimode multiband QRP rig to

use as the IF radio. The directional couplers

are for use with the HP-432A microwave

power meter I have for SWR measurements.

The last thing I'm looking for is a cheap slotted
line, coving the frequency range I'm interested
in, which I can use to make impedance

measurements. That's what was used before

the rise of the $50K network analyzers. A

spectrum analyzer would be nice too, but that

can wait.


There are interesting happenings WAY down low on the spectrum among the
experimental bands. I'm still getting good dx contacts here and there.
California was in my receive again overl weekend several times. Weather
was absolutely miserable, but the skip was pretty good. VHF activity
occupied most of my time, though.

They learn it from the adults. I've had more that one person tell me
personally they don't turn on the CB if they have kids in the car. Now
that's a really sad comment coming from a CBer. Then the kids repeat what
they learn without any regard to whom they are talking to on the air.

As opposed to the words they learn on TV and in school, on the street
and elsewhere?

So where did you learn yours?

I didn't ask for your opinion. Don't like it then post to another news
group. Anyway this is going no where fast and your nit-picking has gotten
boring; by - by.

They better not turn on the television with the kids in the room either. Do
all these people home school their children?

They learn it from the adults.

Actually, they learn it from other kids first, and if they do learn it
from adults, it's usually their parents. Now, try aagin and answer the
question.

I didn't ask for your opinion.

You most certianly did by virtue of posting your opinion in a newsgroup
such as this. Not comprehending such is how usenet works is your deficit
concerning communication techniques.

Don't like it then post to another news group.

You're the one bitching and crying about opinions.
