Take note, Steve, of the first three words in my above paragraph. I made the
comment that in spite of the fact that it was purely an entertainment show,
and not based on fact, that a ham rig made previous to the time the Munsters
was running could indeed have communicated with a kid's walkie talkie. I
used to have such a rig.




But I didn't think the question was about whether it was technically possible.
One doesn't really need an explanation of how a ham might have CB equipment.

But it wouldn't have been legal, as you know. If he put his ham rig on CB,
then he's breaking the law (because it's not type approved, because it has
higher power, because it might be VFO controlled).

There is no reason how he could communicate with license free walkie talkies,
except if there was an emergency.
