Technology, Politics and Public has moved on .......the original needs
(requirements) that attracted the general public to CB have largely been
met by BETTER solutions for the general public.

1.) Reagan / Bush [41] Administrations, 1980s.
Low tolerance for foul language and unreliability of the communications
that the CB service became in late 1970s - especially with conservative
family & religious groups.

What a ridiculous crock.

The general public was never attracted to CB. Initially it was

It is true, technology has moved on just as it always does and always will,
but the CB craze of the late 70's was dead long before the technological
advances you mention were developed and it had NOTHING to do with
Reagan/Bush political intolerance for pete's sake.

It was a fad, mainly among teenagers, and like all fads it's lifespan was
destined to be a short one.

Was it Reagan/Bush that killed the Afro hair style, bell-bottom jeans, soul
music, parachute pants, etc.?

The FCC abandoned the CB service to the wolves and that's what took it over
and that's what will take it over again as soon as the sunspot cycle
permits.

What passing 90's fads are you going to blame on the intolerance of the Bush
43 administration?
