    I guess we'll find out.

    Why wouldn't they be? I don't think there's any band where they're not allowed. Even FRS has them.

    FM

    When the band opens and we are all on here discussing it, we could designate a channel and PL tone for WWDX contacts.

    I've heard Cobra is pushing for it. They probably already have a radio waiting in the wings, ready to go into production upon approval.

    If you were a pirate broadcaster, what's playing right now?

    Here's something relevant to 11M discussion I've been hearing lately:

    FM

    So, are we gonna get legal FM on CB? Should we? If so, on what channels will we use it?

    If you were a pirate broadcaster, what's playing right now?

    Indeed. Winwood is one of my favorite musicians.

    Learning CW, what method?

    That's a great way to learn the code. Just have that playing at a low level, while you do other things.

    Cool Trucks

    I had one of these for about 15 years until it was recently stolen. It had the original 318 with 2 barrel carb and 3 on the tree, no overdrive of course.
