thanks for the replies guys.
this is exactly why i started this thread, because i figured there had to be others that wished the CB was more conversational.
yes, hams have nets and talkgroups, but the CB will never have things like that because they require too much "regulation" for most CBers palates.
we can however, choose a certain freq to just sit and sandbag on, and chances are, when conditions are in, you have a better chance of QSOing with someone you are acquainted with.
who knows what that would be, but it is an idea.
yes, i know that the WWRF has an official channel, but its in the CB band and subject to a lot of QRM.
the other problem is what i like to call "CQ-itis". thats when you call CQ over and over, and when someone actually answers you; you cant think of a thing to say.
so the training takes over, and you just exchange numbers and signal reports and tell each other how good you sound. LOL
i always tell people how amazing it is to me the number of people who get into the radio hobby and have absolutely nothing to say. LOL
