Yes indeed, it was crb research on Long Island, in Commack, New York, late 60s- 70s who had an official monitoring station certificate LOL with fake call signs. Tom was publishing frequency listings, they were the ones that were red or orange so that they couldn't be "mimeographed" LOL.
@Lynnemarie, my dad got a CB radio license in 1965, it wasn't for him, he was a ham operator, and didn't use CB.. it was for me, KOG-0554, I was around 12 years old and I was the one who was into CB radio. The FCC took CB pretty seriously then including the licenses.
They don't even have a record of those licenses anymore to match them up with anyone and you can do whatever you want with your dad's call sign on CB, that can be your handle, it's a great conversational piece as I'm sure it will confuse people and you might get some kidding about it.😀.
