You perpetuate the myth that CBers are too stupid to
obtain a license,

In the UK, he's not far wrong most of the time....

You post this to continue the rift between hams and CBers, fine by me,

Fine by me too!

Maybe if hams openly welcomed CBers into the fold instead of
constantly insulting us,

Don't hold your breath on that happening any time soon!

Instead the CBers
will sit back and laugh as the FCC sells off your bandwidth to the highest
bidder.

Well, considering the original poster posted with a .co.uk e-mail
address (where he lives as he constantly pollutes the uk.r.a group), I
would like to see the FCC trying to sell off the spectrum in the UK!!!!!

The FCC no longer control the radio spectrum in the United States
either. See http://www.watleyreview.com/2004/102604-2.html

Well considering that the U.K.is the U.S.A.'s lap dog, when the spectrum is
sold here it will also be sold there.

Besides, it will be a great day when the code is dropped......the rush of
the dumb CB'er onto the bands will be funny as hell to watch.Couldn't happen
to a finer bunch of assholes.

I don't think your going to see that big of a rush. What attracts a lot of
people to CB is price. I don't want to spend a ton of money on ham gear and
I don't have the time to build it. I think all that will happen is that the
lower portion of 10 meters will get the traffic with all of the "export"
radios in circulation.

Agreed.

Do you not think the ITU might have something to say about that? Oh
sorry, I forgot, the US ignores international organisations!

You'll get no argument from me. The US tends to do as they please regardless
of what the rest of the world thinks.
I remember a time when most countries liked the US and it's citizens, but
those days are long gone.
