I joined this ng because it said cb. all i have read is about illegal this
and illegal that. Its only illegal if or when u are caught.


That excuse has already been thoroughly discredited in this newsgroup.


If hams want to
join in, why dont they help the so called uneducated, gain the confidence to
apply for a licence.


Ham licenses are practically given away. All you need to do is take a
test, but the questions for the test come from a question pool that
the FCC makes public -- you already have the answers. And it costs
about as much as a happy meal. How much confidence does one need?


But no all I read is a bunch of boring so called know
alls bleat on about how crap cb radio is.(CB - Citizens Band) Get it!


Yes, I get it -- Citizen's Band -- not Criminal's Band, or Children's
Band, or I-want-to-be-a-ham-but-don't-have-the-confidence Band, or
It's-not-illegal-until-you-get-caught Band.


If you profess to know all, how can you learn.


Learn what? Many excuses for operating illegally have been presented
in this newsgroup, but none of them have held up under scrutiny. If
you have one that can, I'm perfectly willing to hear it.

And don't get me wrong -- I'm no goodie-two-shoes, and I have just as
much disdain for the FCC as anyone else here, maybe even more. But I
need a damn good reason if I'm going to violate federal laws and risk
a fine of several thousand dollars and/or time in federal prison.

So my mind is open to learn -- what do you have to teach me, Jason?
