I would say the 3 main problems with cb are; (CB is not a form of ham

radio,
it was never intended to be, hence the name "Freeband.")


Not quite. CB is the legal 40 channels. "Freeband" is the other
frequencies (uppers and lowers) that people use to actually
communicate. It's called the "freeband" because the CB Rules don't
apply out there.

1. People coming on and just TXing over your transmissions


Happens on ham radio, too; especially if you happen to be using a
frequency that "belongs" to a net when it's time for them to come on.

2. Trolls (who ever or what ever they may do)


Like here?

3. People broadcasting music on more than one channel at once!


Bad equipment. Happens all the time. Even in commercial radio.

You know thats a LIE, I never wanted the Extra. But I guess I need

to
explain to you again.
A Bunch of No-Code Knuckle Draggers bet me $250.00 I couldnt pass

the
TEST. Well I not only passed with a score of 100%, with no study at
all, I got to collect $250.00 From the Knuckle Draggers.
As I remember you still are not able to pass it.

You swallow. Nuff said.

Well whenever someone say's nuff said, it usually not e-nuff.

Check out my sig file, you rotten *******. hehe
