I was having a discussion in the office today with a Youngster who had never heard of CB radios. I explained the system.

It got me musing - Fabbers what was your Handle?

Ahhh happy memories Parents used to breed staffs, so mum was Staffordshire Mama, dad was Hot Dog, and I was Cassie (cause I liked the constellation)

They were part of Kent coast monitors on channel 9. Bloody years ago now!!

It was a good time in the 80s with CBs, used to go to the secret meets etc.. was a whole new world to a young teen. Once they made it legal it died!

We used to go to a mate's house back in the 80's because he had a CB radio set up in his bedroom. One of the things I remember him saying was "How many candles you burning" It's stuck in my mind ever since.

Great times

Handle: Sparky. I was very active in Evesham but when I moved to Cheltenham, there was a twat with a kilowatt burner, living nearby, so I couldn't get out. Eventually gave up.

AM was fun and 'naughty' but FM just opened up the hobby to a lot more people. Had about 400 local contacts in my log book.

It is more likely that mobile phones made CB largely redundant, rather than legalising making it less popular.

I had one in as a teenager. Major Industries. So I apologise now if I upset anyone from the south Hampshire area around 81/82.

I think it's starting to make a bit of a comeback. Practical Wireless or Radio User magazines sometimes review the latest radios. My Icom R70 reciever has the fm option and I sometimes hear breakers with my indoor loop antenna although it is very directional so I don't often hear both sides of the conversation.

I remember getting one when I was about 14.

I thought "Concrete Pigeon" a good handle.

(It was supposed to be similar to "Rubber Duck")

Between natural disasters and terrorist attacks I think we should all have a cheap cb radio tucked away somewhere and everyone in the house should know the basics on how to use one. Just incase we lose mobile phone coverage. My personal opinion they could still save lives.
