CB Radio Channel 6 Band Opening Dec 15 2008 Skipland

[JRNY1605]

It's amazing the power those guys get. I hear this same same guy in NY, and once drove up to canada and he was still coming through up there.

[mrradioman445]

What a bunch of dumbass people commenting on something you you know nothing about.Buy a cb first.Then you better get some fire in the wire if you think you can even be heard on the superbowl ch.6 or even 11.I live it,breathe it,eat it!Radioman 445.p.s for you guys across the big pond this is american cb skip at its best,all of it no matter what channel you talk on.

[kd4adv]

@mrradioman445 We're not the "dumbass people" running excessive power. We're the ones who turn the CB off/ or goto another channel and talk. So, Ha ha ha.

[AudiophileTubes]

[saddamsalaugh]

Fun

[REBEL2250]

this is the crack head channel.

[bmxingtravis]

nice radio im up here in northern ohio we need to talk some skip sometime

[Izzy1665]

Big power be skipping off the moon.

[reddy12131171]

also a bunch of dumb rednecks on channel 6

[teflondon91]

yes, i agree... more watts than brains as someone else said. I never try and DX on 6 I usually listen on it to know when the conditions are rolling.

[REBEL2250]

more like crackheads, not rednecks.

[samalayork]

@teflondon91 Well, when you have more cash than your brains can deliver...you have more Watts than your yagui can deliver..

[JimmyR1rider]

@reddy12131171 No offense but if you knew any of the superbowlers(guys on channel 6). A lot of them are the furthest thing from a dumb redneck youll find lol. There are more than a few that are electrical engineers and such.

They also grasp more than the average person ever will- including ham operators about antenna systems.

[JimmyR1rider]

@reddy12131171 Also---Not sayin that running all the watts some of them do is the best thing for you but to be able to talk across the country and to Jamaica, and other countries from your vehicle is a rush youll obviously never experience

[utubeworms]

nice radio

[teflondon91]

I love when the band opens up... yu can tell on channel 6 if its working or not cause they run BIG POWER 3KW+

[zzgocartman]

they run a lot more than 3kw

try they peg 50kw slugs and run big transmitting tetrodes. and 75 foot long antenna's

[226mobile]

They don't all run stuff that big, some do though. I ran channel 6 and 11 many years ago with as little as 8 pills in the mobile. I am getting back into it, which I have a 32 pill that is driven by a 6 pill. It will key about 5.5kw @ 18V, but I don't run it that hard normally. That sucker loafs at 4kw dead key.

[OchrismongrelO]

WASTE OF MONEY

[Dummerd]

@226mobile

Be sure and wrap your RG-8X around your testicles and head when transmitting at that power level.

[JimmyR1rider]

@Dummerd And smarty pants- RG 8 is too small to run in the rigs your hearing so if your gonna tell someone that runs a 32 pill to wrap it around himself- at least RG-213 or RG- 217. LMFAO

[Dummerd]

@JimmyR1rider I myself use 7/8 Andrew Heliax. CBers use RG-8X also called Mini-8.

[JimmyR1rider]

@Dummerd Some do yes mostly guys with 4 pills or so- but the guys I know are all running 16 pills and up- they all pretty much use either RG-213 or LMR- 400 if not they run RG- 217 such as I do. The guys that are runnin HUGE A/C boxes are all using heliax like you do.

[OchrismongrelO]

lol yea right, they cant afford that on welfare
