must agree i used to operate on the 11m and still go on cb , ive done my foundation and most of the time either they give a 5/9 report and 73's who cares anymore some of the best operators come from 11m and at the end of the day its all radio and if your hobby is radio , shouldnt you take an interest in it all ??? :/ i enjoy ham bands and i enjoy cb dont transmitt on 11m pirate band now but when i did it was great . If it was not for the 11m i wouldnt of done my ham and we all want more operato
yaesu840: How are they going to blow up a 706 using it on 11m sideband? These rigs can cover the entire HF band on transmit, they're just closed from the factory because the government makes them do so. To open most radios, it's as easy as clipping or removing a resistor or two.
Good to see a Ham oper on free band being clean and having some fun beause you know the ham band is just plain out Boring ! there you go get some fun in ! Oh and to dmccordtube and any other questioning why 11 meter operators use higher power now. Static . You cant even talk a block down the road decent anymore the old CB laws are out dated due to Cell phones, commercial power,and a mirad of other problems.! FCC needs to redo laws !! pss stay off our band if it bothers you !11meter leave ham!
This guy looks like he is having fun, listen to the ham guys on 2meters, you would go to sleep with all there talk about opening up repeaters and constantly giving out there call signs..
Most of them never go out the house unless its to buy an anorak or go to a radio fair,
They always call themselves we "we thankyou for this qsl" and there sat at home alone in there radio shack... whats it all about...
I love how all these hams get on here and complain about the cbers.I listen to ham communications and to be honest,they're quite boring.All they talk about is their radio equipment and shit that they're building.Some people think that because they took some dumb-ass test that they are god.They cry about cbers operating illegally yet you can often find these same people operating in the free band.I'll stick to cb...more fun! 73s,440 wis.
@gforce4all So bloody true, there always on the triple nickel with there burners on, and most of them are boring, they use illegal bands and when a cb user turns up on 10 meter band they go fuckin mental and start trying to key them out..
bet they dont put there illegal keying activity or freebanding in there logs do they..
I dont understand why CB'ers dont care about the laws of power output or type accepted for their radios so why not run FM? Most of you guys are running Ham rigs, its in there and got its easier to listen to !
I have been a Ham for over 30 years and have a lot of CB friends that have got their tickets. For the most part they are good operators and a breath of fresh air on the bands.
Thank you, God, for my ham license and the wonderful hobby it. Thank you for not making me operate CB. I hope CB operators will some day discover the beauty of ham radio. I feel sorry for them..
Getting your ham license doesn't take away your CB priveledges. I am a ham and I still have a CB too. Hams can get a little snooty sometimes! CB is actually still pretty fun.
Because CB is pretty fun. Its pushing the limits. A CB is never supposed to go very far but hey here comes a chance to push it over the top! And its a thrill!
I plan to become a HAM operator but no way im ever leaving the CB bands for ever.
shooting skip is long distance communications...state to state sometimes around the globe....country to country,,,caused by sunspots...your signal bounces and you can talk long distances...for all you ducks out there
"Shooting skip" is illegal on a CB too, not too many people know that. (of course it can't be helped usually). I'm an ex- CBer turned HAM and really now an ex-HAMer lol. I'm not gonna knock one or the other cuz I enjoyed both once upon a time. Cell phones are just alot more easy now lol
Here is a example of a lic ham that dont want you to become a ham.If the guy wants to spend big bucks on his radios let him. I hate it when hams want to tell you what you cant do n do. Im thinking maybe he or she dont have the money for that kind of radio.
thats an icom 706 ham radio - modified for out of band "illegial" operation i might add. Best to get a ham ticket and operate that radio the way is was supposed to be operated.
Nice, hey did u say u were in Wisconsin? i didnt catch that lol. still really cool. I wish I could put an side band radio in my car to shoot skip but, too small of a space so I had to go with a really small Uniden 520XL; very basic.
Hey there guy, I am wondering if you are on the commercial FM radio band part time? You SOUND LIKE SOME JOCK ON 95.5 WIFC or BIG CHEESE 107.9? Just curious up here in the Northwoods....
The quality on that thing is terrible! Seriously, tell him to move his mouth away from the microphone. Why is it that no one knows it would sound so clear if they kept like 6-7 inch distance!
if you listen closely,this guy repeats him self two times,at the begaing of the contact and at the end! and really,you don't need to yell into the mic.just talk normal. :)
Thats a pretty ignorant comment. Take a read at all the comments below you. Some of them from former CBers themselves and some from HAMs being thankful for the new ops.. I would dare you to go up to their face and tell them that they are responsible for the decline of quality on the ham band.
Whats a Duck Plucker? CB sounds too complicated with all those 10-4's and whats your 20 and putting about 40 lbs on me. I don't think I have the brain capacity to remember all that stuff so I'll just stick with Amateur Radio DE W4RAR 73 es thats not 73's which would mean best wishes's
i am a ham have a ham rig and chat to cber,s we are all people who have an interest in radio i took a test because i wanted to know the ins and outs thats all.we are all the same
We're all the same??? Who are you kidding!! Those who operate illegally only add creditability to the claim that CBers only degrade the amateur service by these actions!!!
i dont own a ham radio but i know that ham radio operators aren't stuck up assholes i own a cb radio for volunteer work and there are times when i wish i could just scream SHUT THE F*CK UP
lespaul not all hams are the same just like i think not all cbers are ass holes. as a ham and a cber is nice to have choices. when the cb band is dead i go to another band. being stuck in just one band sucks dude!!
and yes some old timer hams are quite nasty and those wanabe hams are worst. don't limit yourself cause you had a bad experience with some ham. the next solar event is coming and you want to be prepare to do some serious skip talking...have fun dude!
Ham radio operators have passed a test, and normally understand how radios work. They keep international goodwill, use satellite communication and provide emergency communications. CB radio is local and otherwise useless. What's so bad about using a ham radio for a CB? I use the IC-7400. It's fun, and friendly, is ham radio.
