[AMRadio] True??

[CL in NC]

Well this is an observation with some merit:

10 REASONS WHY CB IS BECOMING MORE FUN THAN HAMMING


1- You can run all the power you want and nobody cares.

2 – Nobody tells you that you are 50 cycles low

3 – DTV has eliminated TVI and people are too dumb to figure out a pixelating picture is  interference.

4 – Nobody hooks a computer to a CB set and types a conversation

5 – Nobody goes off the deep end in a pro-SSB diatribe against AM when they hear a heterodyne.

6 – A boat anchor ham rig with 11 meters in it is a find everybody wants and all you get is envy comments,  not derision.

7 – You only need two antennas, a form of Yagi, and a vertical.

8 – You ‘Callsign’ is always phonetic

9 – When your band is dead, you don’t have to look for another spot to operate, you can go hunting, fishing, boating, visit with the wife and kids.

And the most important Number:

10 - The women on the air are usually a heck of a lot better looking than the average ham OP.
