Why

I said no such thing !

you have some correcting to do.

That comment was meant for the posters who say people on Amateur Bands
who
do not wish to involve themselves with morse are lowly class CBers who
seem
to live in trailor parks and live off welfare and care nothing (scumbags
in
other words) It wasnt aimed directly at you it was put in as an "Also"
to
those who try to put that image over. Maybe I should have made it a bit
clearer.


IT IS MY OPINION THAT...
theres a difference between
a cb'er who choses to join and amateur radio to improve his/her knowledge
and capability with radio
and
a cb'er who choses to invade amateur bands just to have extra bands to
play with and brings his/her 11m habits with him/her


Yes, I agree with you whole heartedly but many older Hams refer to "both" as
simply CB'ers. This "will" upset genuine CB radio operators, and those who
did advance to Amateur from CB, as many full licence Hams dont seem able to
distinguish between the two, or dont want to distinguish... thats the
problem.
Also the point still stands that a few, if not lot of problems on Amateur
bands could be down to kids going on their parents equipment while they are
out. There are lots of possibilitys but the CB'er gets it in the neck all
the time.
