Does anybody around NW PA pick up an idiot on Channel 6. His CB goes over 25 miles and I didn't know if anyone else received him. Also do you think he has a homebase unit?
THIS has been going on since a least the late 70's to early 80's AFTER FCC dropped licensing requirements. The folks far off never bothered me It was the Yahoos with the power trips, REAL radios,and Antennas 100 feet in the air. that lived 5 miles or so away that ticked me off. The mindset was have a export radio modded to the hilt, amp it up 500 to 2500 watts, antenna as high as they could get it. and talk with their bud 1/2 a mile away and both tell each other "You're slamming me man!!" [like a string and 2 cans couldn't have done it?} THEN we had a CB gang in Rochester NH called the Midnight Marauders that if someone got in an argument with one of em they'd get together and beat em up. I don't know if the group is still around, and I really don't care. I do hope for THEIR sakes they moved on and live a better life.With all the skip going on in the daytime, there's always an idiot to be found screaming on Ch. 6 – and probably spattering over onto Chs. 5 & 7 too. Could be local, but most likely skipping in from 1000 miles away. Until the FCC takes on the job of cleaning out the swamp (and I'm not exactly holding my breath here), about all that relatively normal users can do is move on to the remaining 37 channels.
I couldn't agree with you more.We have the same crap up here in Mich .I was listening to CB on the Scanner and this guy keeps talking how they should legalize Weed because he smokes 2 joints or more a day iam sure he has a great job .He F bomb's all the time has big power .I bet his kids are real proud of this guy .Get near a big City and ya see what ya get junk people .This is why Ive not been on CB in years except for work use ..There is no radio worth talking on anymore .
I love it! Using the inmates of the Ch 6 insane asylum as HF beacons. "When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade."Well, you can use ch 6 aka Super Bowel to check band conditions for 10 meters. If there is any opening at all you will hear it on ch 6.
The absolute best thing that I have ever heard about channel 6! Thank you!Well, you can use ch 6 aka Super Bowel to check band conditions for 10 meters. If there is any opening at all you will hear it on ch 6.
