To the OP i am so sorry you were hassled on your question .
there are some good people in here that share a love of radio that will answer any questions you have without bieng snooty or just downright mean.
I have been a HAM for 10 yrs and have been around cb's my entire life . I still have quite a few cb's in my radio arsenal .
keep asking your questions , Knowledge is power.
if someone takes time to razz you, they probably dont have much else better to do.
this is a great forum , hope you stay.
I would rather be the HAM that recruits, educates, and mentors
, than creates enemies of the hobby .
