Although the FCC required licensing of 11m CB in the beginning,
there was never any associated test and the "license" was a
pro-forma Third-Class Restricted Radiotelephone type, similar
to what was required of private pilots using civil aviation
radios. Through some oversight, the FCC assigned license
call-signs with a prefix of "11W," this got them in trouble
with the ITU and international agreements. For a brief period
CB licenses were issued with "K" prefixes before regulations
removed the need for licensing.

Were them "CB callbooks? Does anyone have them? I had a CB license in
the "K" era (circa 1979). and have long since lost it. I would like
to look up my call.
