Many of them use 11 meters I’ve heard many calling for overseas contacts , while also talking with there Buddies about contacts made on 10 and40 meters
There are many members here that are both Ham and CB operators.
We don't go for the Ham vers CB rants here and it can get users a vacation quickly.
Radio is Radio, don't care what service it is......

Most CB'ers are hams now, since...um...well you know what I am talking about right?
Some of them never will ! Plenty of idiots on both the CB and ham bands................
Luckily both 11 meters and the ham bands have plenty of friendly operators as well.... you just have to know which frequencies and channels to avoid !
Heard more hams on 11 meters today. Two Americans and a Canadian chatting away on 27.440 LSB about ham stuff including contacts they made last night on 40 and 80 meters, some guys posts on QRZ.com, and about some vintage gear for sale on FB marketplace.... Canadian guy even started to give his VE4 callsign at one point, then stopped. Other guys then made fun of him for forgetting he was on 11 meters LOL!
You get it. I run ham, CB, murs, gmrs, radio is radio period. I simply chose not to be tied to one frequency or service.
As someone mentioned earlier, there are probably as much ham radio operators that go to both. Most wont admit it.
I do have a ham radio friend who really doesn't like CB, but doesn't hate on it. How I was able to score a couple totes of radio gear. 
I am a ham that no longer users 11 meters, I don't hate it I just don't like what it has become especially here in Chivcago. What I do find sad is no quality radios are being produced for the band anymore. I know the Anytime 6666 is a great radio but its not a cb.As someone mentioned earlier, there are probably as much ham radio operators that go to both. Most wont admit it.
