CB vs HAM

WoW!,i had totally forgotton about Adam,wonder if hes still a bench tech for RCI/Galaxy.As i remembered it he was shipped crates with hundreds of radios to repair and was even sent overseas to tour the factory:whistle:

would explain how so many radios leave their factory with alignment and quality control issues Danny.
 
There are real radio operators on both sides of the fence, please do not fall into the "Just because he talks on CB he must be a neanderthal" mentality.
There are guys that have plenty of knowledge, understanding and that put just as much time and effort into the set up of stations in each Hobby.
Some Guys like Amateur Radio......and some are Happy with CB.
It does not say anything at all about there mental capacity.

Just as long as the CBer follow the FCC regilations on that service.. they are fine with me :) I've known some of the best folks ever on 11m..

Just the "illegals" are the ones who mess it up.

How committed to that belief are you? Do you go out and try to locate illegal cb operators and then report them to the proper authorities? If so, do you wear a badge while doing so? I would...just saying.
 
And how much time do you spend badmouthing and going after hams who break the rules?

ya mean like the two LIDS that used to think they owned 7.181. M - F,
8 - 11 am,..... until, err,... ahh,... ummm,... they "lost" the freq:whistle:.

now they hang out around 7.213. it's a zoo, the one in S.C. is a confirmed socialist and the other one in OH. is a religious freak

not my business to locate illegals. Also pointless.

  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Is 30 ohms worth worrying about in a 100’ run of rg8u ?
