typical of CB Radio, nowadays.

this is why all the old timer CB'ers were against the FCC dropping the
Licensing requirements.

But it happened and now we've got these kind of operators. trouble is,
now they're wanting to do the same thing to Amateur Radio.

Don't blame licensing requirements. It was enforcement that was the problem.
Back in the day I "paid" for my license and there were people using reverbs,
amps, homemade noise toys, and YES there were people with extra channels. A
law is not a law if it's not enforced. It wasn't enforced then nor is it
now.
