Oh look, another ham that was born with a licence and callsign already
allocated!!!
What, you don't think amateurs start somewhere and may even have used
other
forms of radio before???
When I got my amateur radio licence in 1960, there was no such thing
as CB in the UK, and no such thing as a code-free amateur licence. We
were much better off then!
CB is the recruitment ground for LIDs.

I know of a few amateurs ( G3's to boot ) that have made a good living out
of CB
in the HAY DAYS during the 80's , as well as picking up some more of the
colourful expressions as well , they can still to be heard to-day with
their
Personals ,Twigs and Twenty's or even the name would be .
Come to think of it , why when they are working a local why cant they
speak their
mother tongue ands have to pretend they're in a convoy.
