Here's what I found:


Bad concept too. Probably work a lot better if the interface was a
cobra GLT148 and you had 40 channels. No seriously, IMHO it would work
great as a virtual CB set.


Are there still any CBers left now that the sunspots are low and there
is little if any "skip" for them?? In order to appeal to CBers you
would have to add a linear amplifier option to the program.


No but there's millions of IRC and voice (skype etc) users who would be
on CB if the internet didn't provide the same thing. The CB metaphor
wouldn't be lost on them.
