Back when younger, and much dumber...I was a navigator on an EC-135, command
post aircraft. Had a HF control head at my crew station. Could put out
1000 watts on a wire antenna about 200+ feet long. All this at 25,000+
feet.

Wasn't a ham back then but knew that 27185 was CB channel 19.

Yep, I used it. Yes, it did get out just fine. I could 'blanket' an entire
state with one transmission. Every trucker in 300 miles would be on the
channel asking "what was that?"

One guy answered with a conformation that I was 'making the trip'. He said
"I don't even have my antenna connected and your pegging the needle".
