local cops having authority over cb's.
 

I also disagree that local police should be given authority to arrest
violations of cb radio.(Although it's sort of already done).

A few years ago, I bought a cb. I hadn't been on the air in decades. I
put the antenna on my car first. But then I had to go somewhere
before I could hook up the cb.

So even though I didn't have a cb in my car, a cop followed me for
several miles, following every turn I made, until he got a call on his
radio to go somewhere else.

He was obviously following me just because I had a cb antenna on my
car. Not because of any cb transmissions I made while driving. How
could I without a cb in my car at the time?

I wonder what he would have done if he found out that there wasn't any
cb in my car.

How did you know "He was obviously following [you] just because [you] had a
cb antenna on [your] car," and
How did you know that "he got a call on his radio" if you did not have a
functioning radio of your own?

Unless you have ESP it's not obvious why he followed you or stopped
following you. The cops don't usually have any authority to enforce FCC
rules and regulations unless maybe the FCC is riding "SHOTGUN" with them or
something like that.
