Good stuff Glen, thanks!	
	
Now, why was Citizens Band created, by whom and for whom? Then how did one get a
license before 1969 when it cost twenty dollars (KCS75650) and why did the FCC
simply not bother to enforce regularions in the early seventies?

The Class "D" Citizen's Radio Service officially began
on 11 September 1958.  From 1951 until that date
amateur radio operators were allowed to use 11 meters
on a secondary basis in the United States.  Other
countries allowed amateur radio operation on 11 meters
until the early 1960s in some cases. The primary
allocations on 11 meters, according to international
treaty, was land mobile.  The Class "D" Citizen's
Radio Service is a land mobile service.
