    If you could create a cool new CB product what would it be?

    Everything you said is so obvious it didn't need to be said. We were dreaming here.

    And....American made. With 100% USA parts.

    What would be the reaction if Hams used 11m legally using their calls.

    The only way would be for the FCC to get lots of money and gonads. Bring back the same license and enforce it's use. I would love it!

    I don't like what happened to CB when the craze hit. It went down hill fast. KEY-6323

    Double Sideband

    It was a Titan. At the time I was running a Browning Eagle R-27 S-23 AM only. I still use it once in a while.

    Double Sideband

    I remember the Regency rigs. Nothing like the glow of vacuum tubes!

    New Cobra 19 mini (anytone)

    It's a CB. Not an export either. Why would it have FM.

    Double Sideband

    My late father-in-law had a Tram that had double sideband. It was very loud on AM and sideband. Until he sent it to Tram to have something fixed. Anyone on here ever use DSB?

    I am a CB'er. Started about the same time as you. I dropped out when it went crazy. At that time I also had a general coverage Ham receiver. I was interested in 2m mostly. I thought about getting my ticket too. But I started hearing garbage on 2m just like on CB. Swearing, etc...

    My thoughts: CB's stay on 11m and Ham operators stay on their bands. Then no problems.

    Dummy Load Question

    I'm looking at a MFJ 264 1,500 watts intermittent 0 to 650MHz dummy load for $129.95. If memory, from the 70's, serves me correctly, MFJ is a good company. I run at max 500 watts. What do you guys think of this?
