davep   10 #20 Posted June 24, 2008 You were probably unfortunate to be near one of those "plug it in and switch it on brigade" ie not set the SWR properly, or someone with one of those infamous "bleed-over boxes" - rigs that were poorly manufactured and caused spurious transmission across the WHOLE spectrum. Most CB's did try to get their rigs working properly, as they did tend to get out further if the SWR was sorted. Sure, their were a few nutters, but generally I found them to be a great bunch. CBing was probably a forrunner of forums like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
