    11 meter is very quiet?

    Thanx. I did go against my own judgement and filed an informal complaint with the FCC. Seems my complaint falls under 2 rules; part 15 and part 95. It has been determined that CB IS a licensed piece. It's a license by rule piece and therefore, cannot be knowingly interfered with. AND, The...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    That would be good! I'm still dealing with the noise, tho, so you'd have to give me a good 9s units for me to understand you. My skip days are limited until I can get this fixed.

    I'll have to go back to the website and check it out, but I think they will send me a copy of the letter. If they do, I will post it here.

    Exactly. Which is what the power company and I both tried to do, prior to the complaint. These people are very strange and private. Hopefully, the FCC sends one to the landlord as well. I have NO faith in the neighbor pounding on my door.

    In order for a field rep to show up I would need to file a FORMAL complaint, which would cost me over $600.00. I am not willing to spend $600 on an endeavor that may or may not solve my issues. I did file an informal complaint and the people will receive a letter explaining that they're been...

    This isn't quite true. According to FCC rule: "Your neighbor’s devices must not cause harmful interference: At the same time, FCC Part 15 (which covers most household electronics) says unlicensed devices may not cause harmful interference to licensed radio services. The CB Service is a...

    I've attempted to open a dialog with these folks for the 5 years they've lived here. The day they were moving in I introduced myself and offered to help them carry stuff. They grunted, never told me their names and kept walking. I've tried waving when seeing them in the back yard ... no...

    I'm going to keep all this stuff in mind in case I ever am asked for assistance in locating the problem. I doubt I'll ever get that call, but hopefully the FCC can put some pressure on these people.

    What year and why did you get into the Radio Hobby?

    1964 for me. My older brother got into it with an Winegard 1/2 wave ground plane and an RCA Mark VII radio. He was one of the first 5 people in the city to be on the air. Naturally, I began talking to his friends when he was not home. If I remember correctly, the radio had 4 channels, but a...
