Not only did I spend a lot of time talking on the CB radio as a kid, I also spent a lot of time (and money) tape recording the antics of myself and others who happened to be on the channel. Whereas most normal people would have erased and/or discarded these cassettes years ago, I kept all of mine. I have at least 100 hours of CB conversations and probably more.
The “Kids’ Channel” in the southern suburbs of Minneapolis/St. Paul was Channel 14. This is where we hung out most of the time. Occasionally, a channel jammer or agitator would force us onto another frequency. Sometimes, *I* was the channel jammer/agitator in question. Many times, CB Channel 14 was complete chaos! But for the most part, it was good clean fun. It kept us home, instead of being out and getting into real trouble, as many other teenagers did.
From Drew’s Basement CB Archives, here are some real gems. If you think these tapes are the greatest thing you’ve ever heard, keep checking back. I’ll be adding more on this page as time allows. If you think these are crass, crude, and a complete waste of bandwidth, you’re in agreement with at least 95% of the civilized world!
