I suspect that you haven't listened to CB in a while. In the Pittsburgh area
where I live, the CB is virtually silent, yes yes, the skip still rolls in on
a limited basis, but otherwise silent. It's nice, the CB can once again be
used for the communication tool that it was intended for. The new fad in my
area is FRS, the filth that used to be confined to CB has now expanded to FRS.
F--k your mother, let her suck my ...., etc. I'm glad that parents allow their
children to use this equipment unsupervised. Just like the home computer
though, it's a pacifier for your 13 year old daughter, who then ventures out
to meet some guy that kills her, no need to supervise those children, the
electronic pacifiers will do it.

Regards.

I have not yet been able to pick up anything in the CB frequencies on my
PRO-93/2053. I even tried a 104 inch external wire antenna (with 50 feet
RG-58). I haven't used CB in 28 years but my recollection is that it is
normally very noisy - there is almost always someone to hear on at least one
of the channels. I suspect that 27 MHz is just too low for the PRO-93/2053 to
do well with.
