Remember your CB radio call sign?

By the time that I Pressed the PTT for the first time, Class D licenses were no longer being issued. I used Adam 12 as a Handle, but I changed it to Travelling man. Hey, Adam-12 sounded so stupid and I really didn't remember the Jack Webb series, since I wasn't born yet. However, I do remember a lot of CB radios were featured on TV shows in the late 1970s and early 80s, such the Dukes of Hazard and once in a while CHiPs. A Team used mostly VHF-LO somewhere in the 49mhz band, but the CB when talk from BA's van to Face's Corvett.

My first call was KRP 8988, but when the license cost went from $8 to $20, I let it expire. Later it went from $20 to $4, so I got a new license, KXW 3779.

My CB FCC Call Sign was KLC6737

I love seeing that FCC license. Great memories! It’s amazing that you still have it. I was around 12 years old in 1964 when my father sent in the license form for the Knightkit C-22 base station that we had just assembled together. We were assigned KLK-1543. I had several school friends who had also put CB base stations on the air and we had great fun with them.
