Hasn't changed in 30 years .Tell me your past and I will tell you your future. See you later Hand, keep the shiny side up and the sticky side down 10 4. Red said that.

If you would get a radio that will provide SSB you will enjoy the world of fun the rest of us have. I talk all around the world on my little stryker 955 and its barefoot. Get off 19 and join us. A ton of good people out there enjoying the heck out of there CBs. I have a HAM license but use both.

I grew up in very remote Native Alaska, at Fish camp everyone had a CB radio and used call signs, it was very locally public but due to our remoteness the airwaves were all ours! Feels like an entire different life now that i live in the modern world. I am retired now and just purchased an Older RV and YES!!!! It has a CB radio in it. I haven't used it yet but have been thinking about it and found myself here on your Vid. Looking forward to checking it out!... Do ppl still have callsigns? Mine was "DeadtillNoon" because i liked to stay up late and sleep in.

People running power are the ones who are really screwing up the “airwaves “.

Fourth kind: People waaaaay out there far from cell service, eg the North Maine Woods, still monitoring Channel 9 and hanging out on 19, assuming the weather is right so you're not hearing the Puerto Ricans from NYC with likely illegal setups that will never be taken down.

Why do you mention Ch19 in particular? Is that a popular CB band? I'm thinking of getting one, just to listen mainly.

Yes, I bought one for info on interstate traffic but realized that Google Maps gave me better information without all the foul-mouthed chatter and bickering. I tried, but gave up on it.

Idiots of KW construction

Tell us important information, where the cops are, where the women are at and what the fuel stops are like. The rest you can jam.

Back in the 70's/80's (NZ) we had 9ch on AM- 2 watts, no hi gain or directional antenna no amp no power Mike no ssb, you guy's were lucky.

Thanks

I'm a former trucker. Doing some driving in my car where it would be helpful to get traffic info. Got a magnetic antenna and fired up the old cb. Can't even get a radio check at a truck stop. How do I get info on accidents and road conditions?

You forgot about all of us that use channel 6 for talking skip channel 6,11,15 ,26,28.

If your ever in Pennsylvania, you'll see cb radio is still very present

Been into radio for a long time........ #1 obviously the truckers. #2 Unemployed Adult children on a base station in their parents house, and ofcourse swearing and thumping their chest. #3 Unemployed Adult men at home, living off their wives..........i have one in a box, ready to do an easy install if I'm gonna take a long trip. What's ridiculous about CB is how the government issued 40 channels, but everyone including truckers strike up a conversation on 19??? Nothing but inconsiderate, selfish pigs.

It's Walmart's fault. My partners and I have 24 trucks contracted on with JB, everything was OK until JB bought Walmart intermodal, so my thinking is JB tried to merge information from Walmart instead of transferring information such as with BNSF brokerage where there were zero issues.

candycane

Who is buying these $250K trucks??? Economy my ass….

Used to cb to other countries back in the early 80s. It was very exciting then.

He's doing a great job complaining about all the complainers.😮

I feel bad for you I would never drive a truck with a paccar engine they are complete junk

Alright I thanks for sharing a very valuable information, wishing you all the best HUG'S 🫂

In 2023, sales for PepsiCo (bottlers of Mountain Dew) declined, but their (PepsiCo) profits went up, thus price gouging.

This guy obviously has never been on 6 the toilet bowl, or 38 LSB

Politics is the only thing relevant enuff to talk to strangers about. Sorry dude, you are just not that interesting.

Thanks daddy

I pull a hopper bottom. A CB is still REQUIRED by a number of places i frequent.

just keep followin the carrot on the stick in front ofya nose dude....the truth cant be hidden foreva...it always comes out....

You forgot the "Skip-Shooters"...39 other channels and they just GOTTA shoot Skip on 19...nothing ground my gears more than that when I was OTR...

Thanks for that information!

It was social media in the old days

If you don't have A CB in your Rig your not a trucker, your just a steering wheel holder. To many trucker don't have them and coming speeding round a corner coming down hill into stopped traffic

I gave up on CB radio in 1977, it used to be just great 👍 but to many stupid idiots wrecked it, nowadays I work many bands, not just a few channels, thousands of channels, and if some CB type clown starts screwing up the band, it isn't long before he gets a visit from the funny little men in the black suits, and he is GONE, UNPLUGGED, and flat broke because of the fines, and it will be some ham who turned him in, I think it's great. 😂😂😂

Do truckers still use AM, or have they switched to something else.

The number one reason society has plummeted to this low level is because of people who don't care, don't have time to care, and have things to do. Granted, channel 19 is not the place for political rants and preaching. Nor is it the place for the most vile filthy mouths on the planet. We can attribute the latter to DEI. Truckers used to be closer to gentlemen. I said closer.

Greetings to all the cbers out there. CB is still alive in central Arkansas. The highway 270 radio group is on channel 35 l.s.b. y'all quit listening to the guy in this video and come up to 35 and give us a shout. Echo is clear. 73s

CB = Citizens Band not Truckers Band or Road Band. And I have not talked on or heard one since the early 70’s.

Listening for accidents and other types of problems and obstructions while driving is why I have one in my truck. I have been on CB since 1970 when I was commuting periodically between Coast Guard base Miami Beach and later Coast Guard base Key West and my family home in Manatee County FL.

I believe there it a purge valve (there is on my truck A/C anyway) you can press it down. That way you can know it’s empty and add the max amount.

tunnel

Can’t forget the clapped out ranger at the end of the street

Part number?

Loved this video !

I have a CB in the truck (3/4 ton Chevy) just for the gravel quarry. Recent trip from Little Rock to Houston, thought I'd listen in. Why is it that almost everyone I heard using the CB sounded like they just left Talladega after drinking a rack of Busch light? Granted, there were some helping when a traffic snarl on 59 had everyone jammed up, but damn.

You forgot the AM Overdrive bucketmouths calling skipland... 🪐🔊🪣

If you scan through all the channels you’ll find the one all of the dump trucks and end dumps and you’ll get the call outs. But we hardly ever run 19

Harris is going to beat Trump

Here in Britain, wagon drivers still use cb. Mainly tipper drivers when they need to talk to the shovel driver in quarries. You still hear people rag-chewing on the muppet band, but alot of people now use 446 pmr instead. The main users in Britain are now DXers using modified ham radios and directional aerials.

You are an absolute fool . You don't have any knowledge about trucking Business. Your 50% brokerage is also from India Pakistan. American thinks that they are giving money to these countries but infact these countries are supporting your economy by working in less wages

When I worked at a elevator we used them to load trucks tell tgem when to move amd when hauld scrap metal they used them to tell us where to go
