Andrew_S12 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I was on when I was thirteen in '79 - quite early days of AM. A guy called Petrol Cap from Beighton got my brother and me into it. I was Sleepy Joe, my brother Biscuit Barrel. I also met my wife (and many other friends) this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gularscute Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Is it still possible to use CB radio? I never did but I remember a lot of people being into it back in the day. How did users learn the language? Was there a glossary available or was it trial and error? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
