The trouble is a CB radio isn't going to introduce law abiding 
hams to long distance communication since that is an illegal use 
of CB. Most of the people I'm trying to attract are emergency 
services people trying to serve their communities. They need 
experience operating under bad conditions, but many of them 
don't know it and won't find out until "the bad thing happens"*.
