Har! My handle used to be "Mister Donut", since my van was a former Mister Donut truck.

And since I was known for my camera, I was "Snapshot".

10-4 backdoor. Put the peddle to the metal and let it roar.
Although today that might have a whole new meaning.  |

Humm, can't remember what my handle was.  Nice lookin' van, Brad. My problem with CB's was the antennas (and underground parking garages).  This is what my van looked like when I sold it 3 years ago with 350,000 miles on it, bought it brand new, camped in it at half of the racetracks in the U.S. Attach file:  _0001.JPG (0.00 KB) _0003.JPG (0.00 KB) _0004.JPG (0.00 KB) _0002.JPG (0.00 KB) |

Back when CB was a big craze I was an over the road big rig owner/operator. So of course I had all the 'neat stuff'. Cobra CB with a linear in the truck and cars and a Browning Eagle base station with a Moonraker 6 over the roof. I could ratchet jaw with the best back then.

Dude, with that much CB, you could bounce from GA to CA!
My sister-in-law's dad was an OTR trucker back in the 50s and 60s. He retired in the early 70s, but kept in touch with his friends via a base station. He could bounce all the way to Texas from FL with this system. Impressive. I remember those linear transmitters... made the trucker sound like he was in an echo chamber! |

We used to have CB's in our cars when I was a teenager since there weren't cellphones back then.

I don't believe that I'm openly admitting this on a public forum, but I was a huge KISS fan back in the 70's / 80's, so my handle was "Dr. Love". Yep, there was a big, fat pimply faced teenager at the mic.
Kinda' creepy huh?  But hey, now I drive a Vette! |
