Many people may think that ham radio is just a glorified
version of CB. No, I'm not talking about the occasional
"lid" or newbie that gets on the air and makes errors.
Or the hams on 2m saying "10-4" on the repeater. I mean the
general chaos and ratchet jawing and echo boxes you find on CB.
That some CBers seem more interested in "broadcasting" whatnot
than actually talking to someone.
