Sounds familiar but can't recall any specifics. Occasionally used to
communicate with several stations in the Chicagoland area late sixties to
mid seventies on my Dad's old Johnson Ranger. I would catch heck for
broadcasting out of band, he was an old key jockey who got his amateur
ticket in the Navy. Allot of the AM traffic at the time was on the RC
channels especially from the Midwest.

Is anyone familiar with a CB-er who used the handle "The Colonel"
during the late 1960's and early 1970's, operating below channel 1
(possibly 20 ch below)on the AM side? He supposedly operated in the
midwest (Chicago area, to western Indiana). I heard him myself, and
would like to compare notes with anyone else who may remember such a
character.
