Despite the fact many galaxy's have proper (i use that term very loosely) counters built in and many ham radios have frequency displays (and are only as accurate as the nugget that aligned it) not counters,the cb must be wrong.
Wish I had a quid for every off frequency ham transceiver I've heard over the years.
Long before the big watt competition amps were devised I heard a few.
1) CB Shop owner was bragging on his 3 stage Gray 300(4xMRF455) amps stating that the low side is for local talking and the high side is for shooting skip.
2) Dump truck driver saying how he could change traffic lights with a Golden Eagle 500(They might do 450 peak on a dosy).
3) Another funny one was a claim that a mobile with 200 watts could light up a flourescent bulb from 30 feet away.
4) Whistling in the mic will blow the final out.
5) If your radio keys 4 watts and then you turn a 100 watt amp on.......your coverage distance will increase by 25 times.
6) The FCC will arrest you on the spot for operating any amp in back of a CB.
7) An Antron 99 has a 9.9 db gain.
There are more but I don't have a week to put them all down.

Actually, it is GRP. Glassfiber Reinforced Polyesther.
I prefer SIF,
or
Splinter-In-Finger when left outside too long.
hee hee hee
that's always been my favorite.
Can't believe nobody has mention AB - vs C boxes, damn Booty!
Not to pick nits, but if you had a C to the B with the mod limiter clipped and were driving it into the Splatmaster 500, it may have been possible to fiddle with certain traffic signals, particularly before the engineers got wise and put the controls into more robust, shielded enclosures...
I have witnessed same. Not necessarily repeatable with any sort of reliability, but I have witnessed it nonetheless.
I have witnessed an over-modulated CB trip numerous old Car Alarms, too.
Most designers of equipment (and computer programs, for that matter) FAIL miserably when it comes to ERROR CONTROL.
