It didn`t last. Now the magazine is gone too.

Ordinary citizens were denied access to the airwaves at the time. The
airwaves are public property which they could be permitted to use. The
airwaves are public property as the air we breathe is public. CB allowed
the general public legal access with no technical or Morse mumbo jumbo.

Profit potential gained support from many who would not have been for
loosing control over radio.
