FIRST CB?

My FIRST CB was a JOHNSON 100(6 channel)& it is how I became know as SIX-SHOOTER.Local CBER(ROOKIE)said I shot my mouth on all 6 channels so he named me SIX-SHOOTER! I was 6 years old at the time as well.My first BASE radio was a REALISTIC NAVAHO TRC-30A.I ended up with a TRAM D-201(hand wired)before I got out of CB in the EARLY 80's.Just bought another TRAM D-201(Hand wired)from a local SK estate.Have an UNMODED DAK MK IX as well along with a UNIDEN WASHINGTON in my HAM/CB shack.I have been a ham operator since 1984 & use ALL "ICOM" rigs(IC-756 PROII,IC-746 PRO,IC-208H, & an IC-T8A).I also have 4 yagis on my ft. ROHN 25 tower(Mosley TA-53M at 50 ft,M2 6M5X at 55 ft,Cushcraft 13B2 at 53 ft,& Cushcraft 215WB at 61 ft). I was just given a Wilson Shooting Star Yagi TODAY that I may put up on my second tower & then I will remove the PROTON 99 vertical.
