Right now (nov 20 20:50 zulu) on 28.085 I hear CB like comms (AM).
Sounds as
crowded as a regular legal CB channel. None of it really copyable, with
all the
power mics and ratchet-jaw lingo. QTH in NNJ, nothing over S3.

Yeah, right. I haven't heard lingo like that on any ham bands, even
since restructuring
happened......

Exception: Right now on 28.085 I hear CB like comms in AM mode. But
none sound like
hams. Besides AM isn't permitted here, this is a data/code subband.

Oh! Boy!

I can't imagine any ham wanting to go back to meters after getting used to
LCD displays.
I have a 1 meter 2 metre radio, but it's pretty old.

And YOU can help! Get out there and listen on the road.
Get the tag # of the tractor (not of the trailer), date, time,
highway, milepost or exit number. Send this info to .
Make a difference: this is how those
other truckers got warned--individual hams who quietly
listened and accurately reported the above data. RH will
then respond IF, again, the info is accurate. Each ham
can make a difference and stop that "tan-fer thar, drivah,
ah know you rah't, fer-tan thar SQUEAK!!" If we don't, we will eventually
hear them beeping and squeaking their
way along on 17 Meters.

The way to "trap" a driver is to quietly cruise along. Do NOT talk to them
or get into an argument! Simply overtake a trucker who *may* be operating
on 28.085 AM. As you pass, or he passes you, he may be curious
about "them 'funny antenners' thar" and comment to you
about it (or other truckers). It is then you copy down the
tag # on the FRONT of the tractor, the DOT # (this confirms the identity of
the truck), the direction of travel and milepost (or exit), date and time.
Also the company name. Send it in! Done correctly, the "man" will send out
a warning notice to the company holding THEM responsible for their drivers'
actions. It is legal and enforc-able.

Poor obcessed Georgie-girl Busch WA3MOJ. He simply cannot have a civil
conversation. Ever. He has to push his perverted gay agenda all the
time.

Amplifiers are not illegal. Certain uses of certain equipment may be
considered illegal.

Georgie-girl's use of a computer in a public newsgroup should be
considered illegal!

Great idea, Jerry! Pile Riley's desk full with all sorts of false
reports so he won't believe any of you!

*may*?? You better be damned certain when you file a report!
Entrapment is also a crime, goodbuddy.

If you are just observing (and reporting what you hear and see) and not
talking, that is not entrapment.
